New Zealand Beach Tours

Perfect for a first time traveller to dip their toes in! Not too overwhelming or rushed, still very much a choose your own adventure type trip and a really good way to introduce yourself to the contiki vibe! Would love to do the panorama trip next to explore the rest of NZ!

The sights and experiences packed into this 19-day tour were simply unforgettable. Every day offered new adventures on land or sea. Our tour manager was knowledgeable, adding incite to the experience with stories and background information as we traveled the length and breadth of both north and south islands. My day on Milford Sound, including optional flight back to Queenstown, was one of spectacular beauty and exciting adventure.

Wanting a unique travel experience far away from my daily life that would also be restorative, I chose this tour. It was the best decision I could’ve made. Traveling by coach, we were able to see the breadth of New Zealand’s landscape. This became very meditative and restorative. Our tour guide, and driver, provided historical, cultural and geographical facts about places we were traveling through and to. My favorite places: The Bay of Islands and Christchurch. The first for its breath-taking beauty and our first exposure to the crystalline waters of NZ. Christchurch as I loved the Canoe experience on the river, filled with play and song, and the thoughtful design of the city in rebuilding itself and street art everywhere! Manna.

I’ve always dreamed about going to New Zealand, to see the lush green hills, oceans and sheep grazing in the pasture. This was so much more than that. Was it because of our tour leader and our coach driver? Yes they made the days so pleasant, lots of laughs and memorable sites. Of course, the history of the development of New Zealand and the cultures that lived there that founded the country were fascinating as well. Great food, yummy beers made there and the brightest of blue skies made the trip one that I’ll never forget. Dexter the tour operator and Fenton the coach driver are a great team together. Definitely would highly recommend this adventure! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sailing with everybody to start the trip is such an unbelievable experience. Such a well planned trip with an awesome guide! If you don’t book the full trip, you are going to wish you did.

We felt like we really had the full New Zealand experience and loved every minute! Collette executed everything with precision and excellence! My favorite moment was driving through the tunnel on our way to Milford Sound and coming out the other end. Our mouths dropped open, and we gasped in awe at the scenery!
