If you're not a fan of Lord of the Rings - don't worry, the South Island of New Zealand is more than Hobbits. Think marvellous mountains, dramatic coastlines, bungee-jumping off bridges and untouched nature unlike anywhere in the world. From Queenstown, you'll be able to explore the South Island's wonders from the tip of your finger.

Walk New Zealand's Fiordland National Park

"Walk New Zealand's Fiordland National Park"
A wonderful way to taste the NZ Great Walks and the beautiful landscapes of New Zealand's Fiordland. Each day a different aspect of the region followed by a comfortable night in the lovely township of Te Anau. Great comradeship of a small group along with the fun of the Glow Worm cave, eBikes and a Jet boat. Many thanks to Rohann Mackrell of Trips & Tramps as a wonderful guide and for expertly show casing the region.

My cycling trip in Otago was a breathtaking experience. The weather was perfect, showcasing the region's picturesque beauty. The landscape, with its rolling hills and stunning vistas, was a delight to explore. What truly made the trip memorable were the amazing meals, adding a flavourful touch to an already perfect journey.

I was lucky to be part of small group, me and 2 ladies (hey Ivy & Georgia). Intrepid host Grant was incredible. He had very good knowledge of nature and New Zealand. He also had excellent connections which he used to make our trip better. He for example arranged paraflight to ladies with his connections, which wasn't part of the trip. He certainly didn't watch his clock, if someone of us wanted to do something extra in the end of day he would arrange it. Our wellbeing was important to him. To top of that he has great personality & great sense of humour.
