MoaTrek & MoaTours

Looking for something special for your “Trip of a Lifetime”? The Kakapo is the most comprehensive three-week itinerary with all our favourite Kiwi holiday spots rolled into one unique tour. You’ll cover our country from north to south and see famous sights and treasures off the beaten track.

Get to know Maori culture and Kiwi hospitality relaxing over private lunches with the locals. Stroll gentle trails through our National Parks and get close up to our scenic wonders from the volcanoes of the north to the breath-taking high country, lakes, fiords and coastline of the south. You’ll be amazed it’s all the same country.

Start with a visit to Invercargill’s transport museums then fly to Stewart Island for two nights. From the island cruise across to Ulva Island bird sanctuary, a nature lover’s playground. Back on the mainland explore the stunning Catlins coastline and the albatross colony near Dunedin and Larnach Castle.

Stay in the heart of Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park, cruise on Milford Sound and take a spectacular flight back over the Alps to Queenstown. From Wanaka, the Haast Pass leads to lush rainforests, Franz Josef Glacier, Okarito Lagoon and Punakaiki’s wild coastline.

*May, July & Sept departures may vary slightly due to seasonal availability.

Get a taste for New Zealand the way it used to be. Take the road less travelled around the stunning East Cape to Hicks Bay and on to Gisborne and Rotorua, enjoying local hospitality along the way.

Follow an eastward trail to the remote and primeval forests of Te Urewera to meet local guides and hear their stories. Mahia Peninsula is famous for surf breaks and rockets and Awakeri for rail carts to ride along the tracks. An "off the beaten track" true kiwi experience.

Fly over to Aotea Great Barrier to enjoy a leisurely holiday staying four nights in Shoal Bay and Mulberry Grove in relaxed, island-style accommodation. Explore the bush-lined roads, the coastline and harbours, from Port FitzRoy cruise to Kaikoura Island and around the harbour inlets.
