New Zealand

Wonders That Defy Description

A wonderful introduction to a marvelous country that left us hungry for more. The trip was a smorgasbord of sights and experiences that comprised a very rich reward for the accompanying travel. The knowledge and insights on cultural and geological history shared by our experienced, enthusiastic guides took each segment to a another level. Auckland (pre) is great while Queenstown (post) is off the charts.

Amazing scenery, awesome guides and lots of fun!

VBT's New Zealand hike & bike tour is fabulous! I really enjoyed the amazing scenery on both our trail rides and our hikes. The guides were super enthusiastic and knowledgeable, I learned so much about the culture and flora and fauna of New Zealand.

Exceptional experience in a land far, far away

This was my first trip with Country Walkers and also my first trip to New Zealand. From our first experience with the delightful driver at the Aukland airport provided by Country Walkers to the last hike together with our guides Mark and Sarah this trip was exceptional. I have such fond memories of places visited and friendships nurtured on the trails. I am so grateful for the experiences this walking tour provided. Thank you Mark and Sarah! You are awesome!

The Most Beautiful Place in the World

New Zealand is the most beautiful place in the world. At least, that is the conclusion my wife and I reached during our wonderful Country Walkers trip to the South Island. Among other delights, we were treated to a wondrous mix of mountain and water scenery on the Queen Charlotte Track in Marlborough Sounds and fern jungles along along the coastal trails of Abel Tasman National Park. The walking was never too demanding but there was scope to do more for those of us willing to take it on. Our guides, Mark and Sarah, were absolutely superb. Our hotels and food were first rate. We have done a number of these trips now and loved them all. But I have to say this was the best.
