New Zealand
Land beyond the limits
Take at least three weeks for your active, nature-filled exclusive journey in New Zealand, where private helicopter is your most common means of transport. Here are some impressions of what we have in store for you:
Upon landing in Auckland, you’ll be escorted straight to the helipad. A scenic helicopter ride to your lodge will give you a brief preview of this country’s beauty. Your riverside lodge is iconic (click here for more details), considered the best of what New Zealand can offer. Even its garden is ranked as a 'Garden of National Significance', deemed to be of regional importance.
A look into the fascinating life of Maori awaits you the next day. A Maori guide will take you on a four-wheel drive to remote Maori land. A hike with the experienced guide will give you an insight into the indigenous people’s relationship with nature and food. Next up is an exclusive helicopter transfer to White Island, one of the only accessible island volcanoes in the world and New Zealand’s most active volcano (believed to be 150-200 thousand years old).
Your upcoming base is a privately-owned estate, restored and transformed by its charming hosts. From there you’ll take on some heli-hiking over hugely contrasting terrain - high mountain tops, subtropical native bush and wild coastline. Reside next in New Zealand’s ultimate alpine escape. After a spectacular private jet boat ride on the mighty Kawarau river, meet an expert winemaker who has won gold medals for New Zeland’s pinot noirs. He will take you on an exclusive behind-the-scene visit of wineries.
