Our Values
Good Humans
We believe that incredible things happen when you travel and experience the world with a small group of likeminded humans. You'll start your journey as strangers and end as a family.
World Leading
Our experiences will always be provided with an unwavering focus on exceptional quality, with safe, sustainable and responsible travel at the heart of everything we do.
Leave Only Footprints
Care for the planet isn’t just fundamental to our ethos, it’s bigger than that. It’s about respecting our environment and ensuring we look after it for generations of future travellers to enjoy.
Enjoy The Journey
It's not just about the destination, it's about the journey. We have fun and don’t take ourselves too seriously. Life is one incredible adventure & it’s in our DNA to make the most of every single moment.
Our Passion
We've put together premium tour experiences, whisking you away to some of the world’s most beautiful natural scenery. Our local guides love showing you all of the best on and off-the-beaten track places in New Zealand, allowing you to sit back and take in this unique small group experience from the comfort of our new, luxury cruisers. There is nothing more incredible than sharing this experience with others from around the world.
Our Story
