Itinerary of your trip New Zealand Magic (17 Days)

  • Day 1 Day 1: Welcome To Christchurch
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Welcome To Christchurch

      Explore the โ€˜Garden Cityโ€™ at your leisure. We recommend jumping aboard the tram for a Christchurch tour โ€“ the conductors are a hoot โ€“ to discover how the city has rebuilt itself since the devastating 2010/11 earthquakes. Itโ€™s changing the way architects think about design. Case in point the mind-bending Transitional Cathedral, made largely of cardboard, and Turanga, the gold-clad central library.

  • Day 2 Day 2: Christchurch - Franz Josef/Waiau
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Christchurch - Franz Josef/Waiau

      Your New Zealand tour starts on a high as you jump aboard the TranzAlpine train bound for Arthurs Pass, through tunnels and over viaducts with panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, icy rivers, beech forests, gorges and river valleys. Arriving in Hokitika, your outlook is all pounamu (native greenstone or jade). In Mฤori tradition, itโ€™s bad luck to buy this sacred stone for yourself; flutter your eyelids at your loved one. Things are about to get cool again as you arrive at Franz Josef Glacier/Ka Roimata o Hine Hukatere, a white-out of snow and ice that shimmers like a gem. Get some perspective on an optional scenic flight over this natural wonder โ€“ if the weather behaves, you may even get to land on it.

  • Day 3 Day 3: Franz Josef/Waiau - Queenstown
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Franz Josef/Waiau - Queenstown

      Over the Haast Pass, the alpine scenery of the Southern Lakes spreads before you. First up thereโ€™s lovely Lake Wanaka, with its Instagrammable shoreline of poplars and willows. Followed by oh-so-blue Lake Hawea and Lake Dunstan, where youโ€™ll pause to refuel on flavour-packed stone fruit. We know youโ€™ll want to linger in Arrowtownโ€™s movie-set-like streets, lined with trees and character-filled boutiques. But Lake Wakatipu and the Remarkables await on your Queenstown tour.
