The Aotearoa Highlights Journey was an amazing experience. The route flowed perfectly from Auckland to Christchurch, and every stop felt meaningful. Having everything organised made the drive easy, and the freedom to explore made it even better. Highly recommend!

I loved every moment of this trip. The glowworm caves, Rotorua’s geothermal sights, and the ferry crossing to the South Island were unforgettable. Queenstown and Milford Sound were the absolute highlights. Such a well-crafted itinerary!
