Overview of your experience

We’ve cherry-picked the very best destinations, hikes and experiences, combining them into an unforgettable 7-day South Island adventure. Day walk amongst the Southern Alps on our legendary Great Walks. Journey by jetboat into the remote backcountry of Mt Aspiring National Park, deep into a landscape where few get to tread. Explore the iconic Milford Track, kayak and cruise Milford Sound, and day walk in Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park.

If you’re short on time or you’re just after the epic highlight reel, the Pure South Adventure is the perfect bite-sized morsel. It’s everything you’ve heard about and want to see during your time in New Zealand but weren’t sure how to piece together in such a short time.

With wonderful guides looking after all of the details of your holiday, you’ll quickly feel the stresses and strains of everyday life melt away. All you need to do is relax and enjoy the adventure. This is 7 days of the very best of the South Island and while you probably won’t want to go home at the end of it, you’ll be satisfied knowing that you made the absolute most of every moment! We think of it as a distillation of the very best!
