Travellers are drawn to New Zealand for its natural beauty and adventurous spirit but with an Intrepid tour you will find out there is so much more to discover.
On an Intrepid tour you'll stay in locally run accommodations, like guesthouses, small-scale hotels and some homestays. These choices not only support localised economies but also give you a feel of real New Zealand. Respecting the local people their culture and their environment is an important value of the company.
