Our most popular cycling tour

Tens days of stunning scenery in one the most spectacular places on earth. Enjoy friendly Kiwi hospitality in a New Zealand cycling tour of the beautiful South Island. A superb scenic mix of mountain passes and easier coastal terrain that will delight cycle enthusiasts. Each evening, there is a comfortable lodge and excellent cuisine awaiting you so you will have a fantastic experience.

See the magnificent Southern Alps on this fantastic 10 day tour.  Experience the rainforest on a range of short hikes and meet friendly New Zealanders. Ride to Mt Cook and stay on a sheep farm. Besides great biking, you can try jet-boating, rafting, scenic flights and bungy jumping. This is one of our most popular trips, and the Southern Lakes region has been rated eighth on Lonely Planet’s list of the best regions to visit.

Unspoiled New Zealand – glaciers, rainforests, lakes and snowy peaks; the Southern Alps tour takes you  through some of the world’s finest scenery. New Zealand was one of the last places in the world to be settled by man and it still retains a rugged, incomparable pristine beauty. “The Lord of the Rings” was filmed here on the West Coast (or Te Wahi Pounamu to give it its Maori name) and is rightly recognized as a World Heritage Area.

The South Island is known for friendly Kiwi hospitality, excellent local cuisine and includes interesting history from the region’sgold mining days. The vibrant towns of Wanaka and Queenstown- both on the shores of beautiful lakes with an alpine backdrop – make for a wonderful experience.
