6 Day North Island Experience
|
|
|
Starting in Auckland and ending in Wellington, this is an ideal tour for those with limited time and budget and highlights the North Island as the perfect ‘short break’ destination. Six days of luxury touring through rich farm and dairy lands, Hawkes Bay vineyards and boutique wineries. You will visit Rotorua, a geothermal wonderland bursting with Maori culture, geothermal geysers and hot pools, renowned for their therapeutic benefits. You will feel the spirit “Manakitaanga” of this place long after you have left and delight in the experiences this short break offers. We highly recommend a Bay of Islands tour extension before embarking on this tour if time and budget permit.
