Active New Zealand

Welcome to South Island’s largest city. Christchurch is famous for its botanical gardens, cycle routes, and sumptuous dining spots. And it’s also where you’ll meet your travel fam! Hope you’re ready to feel those crazy adrenaline rushes. We’ve got an unforgettable adventure lined up - and our first stop is the remarkable West Coast Tree Top Walk.

What’s the best way to see the NZ rainforests? Getting a birds-eye view of them, ofc. Today, you’ll walk across a maze of sky bridges and soar through the treetops onto a 20-metre-high platform. Keep your camera ready for this one! You might catch a glimpse of the incredible wildlife that has made these rainforests their home. Then, we’ll hop back onto our coach to our next spot.

Tonight, at the foothills of the Southern Alps, we’ll grab a delicious dinner (and spend some time with the new crew). Better get some rest before the real adventure starts tomorrow.

Time to get exploring! Here at Fox Glacier, you’ll have the chance to look around on foot, sure, but the action doesn’t stop there. That’s right, you’ll have the opportunity to take an E-bike tour or even better, get an absolutely spectacular view of the glacier from a helicopter (!).
We’ve satisfied our inner adventurer, now it’s time to satisfy our hungry tummies. Tonight, we’ll grab some dinner at a rustic 150-year-old hotel (with the mountains as our backdrop!). And then it’s back to our hotel to rest our travel-tired limbs.

Another morning waking up to breathtaking natural beauty. How lucky are we? Today is yours to spend, just the way you like. Grab some breakfast at one of the many local cafes here. Rock climbing, canyoning, kayaking, skydiving - there’s so much for us adrenaline junkies here. Or you could even choose to ride a water taxi for a tour of Mou Wahi Island. In the evening, you can join us for a cruise of the stunning Lake Wanaka. What a way to end the day.

Morning, daredevils. We’ve got some more exploration to do today. You can grab some breakfast in town before we hop onto our coach towards our next destination.Nothing spells adventure like jumping off a bridge. And you best believe, that’s exactly what we’re doing at the world’s first commercial bungy jumping site. Plus, the view of the crystal blue river is a sight in itself. It really is an experience for a lifetime.Hungry? Luckily, this historic gold mining town has a spot or two to satisfy the rumble.If you thought that the day was over, you’re in for a surprise because we’ve arrived further down south. In the evening, you have the option to cruise over Lake Wakatipu on a historic ship and end the night with a luscious BBQ dinner spread. Jaw-dropping scenery, drool-worthy food. Best combination ever? We certainly think so.

Wakey wakey, we’re up and out bright and early today to get a head start on one of the best hikes in New Zealand. Yup, today we’re taking on the Routeburn Track.
The Routeburn Track. 19 km of breathtaking mountain views, plus wildlife spotting, plus chatting with your crew in a truly romantic setting. What more could you want? Your tickets all sorted by us so you can save your mental energy for the trek? We’re already one step ahead of you.
You have a free night tonight, so you can either sample Queenstown’s laid-back-yet-legendary nightlife… or you can hit the hay and dream about what a wonderful day you just had. The call is yours.

Today is yours to spend however you like – you can explore in your own way, or join us on an optional boat trip, vineyard tour, e-biking experience, ziplining adventure and adventure canyoning. (Safe to say adventure with a capital A lies in store for us.)

Another day, another catapult… skydive… bungy jump… Yup, there’s loads more optional activities in store for us today, so make sure you eat all your morning oats – it’s gonna be a big one. (You’re also free to continue exploring Queenstown in your own way too. We’re all about freedom here.)

Queenstown, it’s been a blast but we’ve gotta be off now. We’re making our way to even more mesmerising views.Twizel is a worthy stop-off on any NZ trip. Luckily, this is where you'll munch on some lunch (surrounded by enchanting natural beauty). It's a feast for your tummy and your eyes...It’s trek time! Here at Hooker Valley, we’ll take a 5km hike and marvel at iceberg after iceberg, swing bridge after swing bridge as we go. But wait, there’s more…Remember to breathe. Because this spectacular peak is going to take your breath away. If you’re interested in exploring it even further, join us for a cruise ride across Tasman Lake, paired with a buffet dinner. You wouldn’t wanna spend the last full day of this trip any other way.

It’s your last morning in this Southern Island adventure. So make the most of it. Grab some breakfast at the hotel and exchange deets with your crew. Then, we’ll hop onto the coach to head back to where it all began.It’s time to say goodbye (sadly). What an adrenaline & scenery-packed ride it has been! But not to worry, because we’ll be back again another time, in another place, for another adventure. That’s what life’s about, right?
