South Island holidays

Holiday highlights

The enchanting English-feeling city of Christchurch and the South Island’s adrenalin capital, Queenstown, are two wonderful bases from which to explore the surrounding regions.

South Island highlights
•   Take a sea taxi from Kaiteriteri to a secluded beach in the beautiful Abel Tasman National Park, then trek your way back to your starting point.
•   Experience an unforgettable morning swimming with wild dolphins or whale watching off the coast of Kaikoura.
•   Sample delicious Sauvignon Blanc wines on a vineyard tour of the Marlborough region.
•   Hike (or take a helicopter ride) to the top of the mighty Franz Josef or Fox Glacier and walk on the face of the glacier, through crevasses and ice caves.
•   Spend a magical day visiting recognisable locations from the Lord of the Rings films.
•   Cruise or sea kayak in stunning and dramatic Milford Sound, dominated by the imposing Mitre Peak and home to abundant wildlife.
