22 Great Days – Nature and Wildlife – incl. Steward Island!
New Zealand Self Drive Tour
Experience a New Zealand that is magnificent, stunning and authentic.
Among nature lovers, New Zealand is considered one of the last adventure areas that has been largely spared from mass tourism.
Experience 3 weeks New Zealand’s stunning wildlife and nature! See the diving of whales, rare penguins, albatrosses, dolphins, our unique Kiwi bird and the natural paradise and secret gem – Steward Island!
On the other side of the world, opposite Europe, New Zealand’s North and South Island extend over a length of 1600 kilometres. Endless beaches, fiords, fern forests and geysers, the magnificent mountain world of the Southern Alps, as well as endless pastures, open up a multitude of unique opportunities for nature lovers.
Hardly any other part of our world offers so many different landscapes in a relatively small area. The spectacular landscapes and the species-rich flora and fauna are the focus of this journey. The natural beauty of our National Parks is one of the most impressive experiences of this tour. A boat trip in Milford Sound will certainly remain unforgettable. Covering the best features of both islands you will travel in comfort and by your own paste. Your accommodation is waiting for you. And it’s the perfect Honeymoon in New Zealand as well!
