Overview of your experience

Enjoy the very best of the South Island distilled into one incredible seven-day adventure.

Hike among the Southern Alps on New Zealand’s legendary Great Walks and jetboat into the remote wilderness of Mt Aspiring National Park. Cruise and kayak Milford Sound, walk a section of the iconic Milford Track, and explore the high-mountain wilderness of Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park.

With expert guides handling every detail, the stresses of everyday life fade into the background, and all you need to do is relax and enjoy the journey. End each day in comfortable accommodation and enjoy delicious meals celebrating fresh local flavours.

If you’re short on time the Pure South Adventure is the trip for you. It delivers everything you’ve heard about and hoped to see in the South Island, all in a single week.
