Have you heard of the Punakaiki Pancake Rocks, or glimpsed the turquoise lakes outside Twizel?

Highlights
Cultural Immersion

Local Connection
Visit retired sheep farmers, Angie and Stan Taylor, who serve up a mean afternoon tea at their home on the edge of Lake Tekapo and tell you about life on the land.
Make Travel Matter
Delve into the history and culture of local West Coast Māori (Poutini Ngāi Tahu). Embark on a unique self-guided journey, through extraordinary storytelling, in collaboration with Wētā Workshop.
World Class Nature
Snow-capped mountains, a mirror-like lake, white-water rivers and vine-laced fields. Queenstown is blessed with natural assets.
