New Zealand is a thrilling microcosm of the natural world. We'll immerse ourselves in a land where wild rivers and glaciers flow through rain forests to the sea, pristine lakes and pastoral forests hug volcanic slopes, and snowcapped peaks pierce the sky. From precious greenstone to thermal geysers, we discover treasures as distinct as they are unforgettable. There's no better way to experience this magnificent beauty than in the pure, open air—and OAT helps us do just that.
Cruise Milford Sound by catamaran, and ascend the slopes of a volcanic mountain in an overland vehicle. From the verdant coast to the Southern Alps, we'll experience firsthand the Kiwi spirit of adventure that springs from this mighty landscape, where discovery waits around every bend.
