The most intense and amazing 17 days of your life await you. From my four-month journey around the South Island of New Zealand, I have selected the most beautiful parts and incorporated them into a unique trip where you wake up every morning wondering what the day will bring. In the evening, you will fall exhausted, dirty, and happy, with your head full of moments you will hardly believe.


This trip will bring you so much beauty and adventure. You will stand face to face with wild nature, encounter seals on the beaches, dolphins in the waves, whales breaching the surface, and penguins returning from hunting. The Kea mountain parrot will peek into your backpack without hesitation, and the bravest can even meet a great white shark. Flying through the air, riding canyons on boats, zip lining over forests, kayaking in breathtaking landscapes, and hiking to places that will take your breath away for a moment await you.


Relaxation here has different rules. Cruises through silent fjords, a view of glaciers from a helicopter, caves illuminated by glow worms, and the opportunity to see the Northern Lights. Endless ridges, clear water, waterfalls, and swimming in the ocean. If you are looking for real adventure and unforgettable experiences, then this is exactly it. This will be the ride of your life.

New Zealand - South Island: The most intense travel adventure of your life
Day 1–3 / 17
1

Day 1
Christchurch: South Island's Capital - Arrival and Introduction

The first day is dedicated to arrival, rest, and gradual acclimatization after a long flight. Recharge your batteries, because your adventure of a lifetime starts tomorrow!

10 km(22 min)
517 m(07 min)
2

Day 2
Wild Kaikoura: A Realm of Whales, Dolphins and Seals

Easy
3 places
1.65 km(24 min)
189 km(2 h 39 min)

Today will take you to one of the wildest and most vibrant corners of the South Island - to Kaikoura, where encounters with wildlife await you at every turn. A hike awaits you along the rugged coastline, where dramatic cliffs meet the ocean and gulls frolic all around you, where they have their nests, so you have the chance to see their cute dark-feathered young. You will walk through a seal colony, where random encounters with casually lounging seal families await you. You can also look forward to a whale and dolphin watching trip, which is one of the most powerful natural experiences on the trip.

That's a nice start to the journey, what do you say! And you're only at the beginning 😉


*Depending on the time of booking the whale watching tour, swap the individual activities as needed.

Day 3
Arthur's Pass: Hike with Kea parrots in the heart of the South Island

Hard
2 places
2.84 km(57 min)
305 km(4 h 00 min)

Today, you'll be traveling from the coastal town of Kaikōura to the mountains of Arthur's Pass National Park. The journey itself is beautiful - you'll pass through narrow valleys, past wild rivers and picturesque mountain ridges, and with a bit of luck, you might even spot some of the wildlife that inhabits this area. After arriving at the parking lot, you have a choice of two types of mountain adventures, depending on your fitness level and preference:


Avalanche Peak Route - for experienced hikers: a more challenging, steep climb will reward you with stunning panoramas of mountains and valleys, ideal for those who want to include a physical challenge in their itinerary with a reward in the form of breathtaking views.


Alternative for less demanding: Devils Punchbowl Waterfall - a comfortable, easier hike along forest trails to an impressive waterfall that rises to a height of over 100 m. An ideal choice for families, beginners, or those who want to enjoy the beauty of the mountains without a steep climb.


Both routes allow you to return the same way and can be easily planned into one afternoon, so you can enjoy the atmosphere of the mountains and nature of Arthur's Pass at the same time.

The most intense and amazing 17 days of your life await you. From my four-month journey around the South Island of New Zealand, I have selected the most beautiful parts and incorporated them into a unique trip where you wake up every morning wondering what the day will bring. In the evening, you will fall exhausted, dirty, and happy, with your head full of moments you will hardly believe.


This trip will bring you so much beauty and adventure. You will stand face to face with wild nature, encounter seals on the beaches, dolphins in the waves, whales breaching the surface, and penguins returning from hunting. The Kea mountain parrot will peek into your backpack without hesitation, and the bravest can even meet a great white shark. Flying through the air, riding canyons on boats, zip lining over forests, kayaking in breathtaking landscapes, and hiking to places that will take your breath away for a moment await you.


Relaxation here has different rules. Cruises through silent fjords, a view of glaciers from a helicopter, caves illuminated by glow worms, and the opportunity to see the Northern Lights. Endless ridges, clear water, waterfalls, and swimming in the ocean. If you are looking for real adventure and unforgettable experiences, then this is exactly it. This will be the ride of your life.

New Zealand - South Island: The most intense travel adventure of your life
Day 1–3 / 17
1

Day 1
Christchurch: South Island's Capital - Arrival and Introduction

The first day is dedicated to arrival, rest, and gradual acclimatization after a long flight. Recharge your batteries, because your adventure of a lifetime starts tomorrow!

10 km(22 min)
517 m(07 min)
2

Day 2
Wild Kaikoura: A Realm of Whales, Dolphins and Seals

Easy
3 places
1.65 km(24 min)
189 km(2 h 39 min)

Today will take you to one of the wildest and most vibrant corners of the South Island - to Kaikoura, where encounters with wildlife await you at every turn. A hike awaits you along the rugged coastline, where dramatic cliffs meet the ocean and gulls frolic all around you, where they have their nests, so you have the chance to see their cute dark-feathered young. You will walk through a seal colony, where random encounters with casually lounging seal families await you. You can also look forward to a whale and dolphin watching trip, which is one of the most powerful natural experiences on the trip.

That's a nice start to the journey, what do you say! And you're only at the beginning 😉


*Depending on the time of booking the whale watching tour, swap the individual activities as needed.

Day 3
Arthur's Pass: Hike with Kea parrots in the heart of the South Island

Hard
2 places
2.84 km(57 min)
305 km(4 h 00 min)

Today, you'll be traveling from the coastal town of Kaikōura to the mountains of Arthur's Pass National Park. The journey itself is beautiful - you'll pass through narrow valleys, past wild rivers and picturesque mountain ridges, and with a bit of luck, you might even spot some of the wildlife that inhabits this area. After arriving at the parking lot, you have a choice of two types of mountain adventures, depending on your fitness level and preference:


Avalanche Peak Route - for experienced hikers: a more challenging, steep climb will reward you with stunning panoramas of mountains and valleys, ideal for those who want to include a physical challenge in their itinerary with a reward in the form of breathtaking views.


Alternative for less demanding: Devils Punchbowl Waterfall - a comfortable, easier hike along forest trails to an impressive waterfall that rises to a height of over 100 m. An ideal choice for families, beginners, or those who want to enjoy the beauty of the mountains without a steep climb.


Both routes allow you to return the same way and can be easily planned into one afternoon, so you can enjoy the atmosphere of the mountains and nature of Arthur's Pass at the same time.
