Keeping travelling to a minimum makes this itinerary beautifully simple and ideal for those wanting a taste of all New Zealand has to offer within two weeks. Perfect for those preferring not to drive at all on their holiday, all transfers are by internal flights enabling you to unpack and stay longer at each destination, and relax more. However, you won’t be missing out as most places of interest can be included as optional day trips from the main cities. All airport transfers are included.

Itinerary
4 Nights – Auckland
4 Nights – Wellington
3 Nights – Queenstown
3 nights – Christchurch
✈ UK – Auckland (4 Nights): First you will fly from your chosen UK Airport to Auckland where you’ll have 4 nights and you can take time to explore New Zealand’s largest city with its shops, museums and harbours. An easy 3 ½ hr trip from there could take you to the beautiful Bay of Islands, an idyllic beach destination with plenty of activities including fishing, sailing and swimming with dolphins. Visiting Coromandel is another great excursion with its golden beaches, rainforest and marine wildlife. You can also explore the magical Waitomo Caves or take a Hobbiton Movie Set tour to experience ‘Middle Earth’ on the set of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
✈ Auckland – Wellington (4 Nights): Fly onto Wellington, the country’s capital, for 4 nights where you can enjoy the scenic harbour setting, thriving arts scene and gourmet cuisine. The capital is also an ideal location to take a day long wine tour to the picturesque vineyards of Martinborough with its award winning wineries.
✈ Wellington – Queenstown (3 Nights):Then fly onto Queenstown on the South Island for 3 nights. This alpine city is the adventure capital of NZ with nearly every imaginable extreme sports available. A must–do whilst you are here is a day trip to Milford Sound for a cruise through the stunning fiords that are home to dolphins and fur seals.
✈ Queenstown – Christchurch (3 Nights): Your final internal flight will take you to Christchurch for 3 nights where the wonderfully laid back city with its beautiful parks and gardens will be your base. From here take a 3 hr trip to Kaikoura which is a nature watcher’s paradise. With snow-capped mountains in the background, this is the place to come to see sperm whales up close along with penguins and dolphins!
✈ Christchurch – UK: On your last day you will be picked up and taken to the airport for your flight home to the UK.

Just booked our 3rd holiday with e-shores, yet again a full professional service and insight to the destinations we wanted to visit- no pressurised selling, and if we kept wanting our itinerary changed - Nick Chadwick didn’t mind at all. Easy to deal nothing to much trouble, also arrange everything to the last detail, no way would we contemplate a holiday to Chile, Argentina and Dominion Republic without eShores - thank u

We have recently been on an amazing 3 week holiday to Kuala Lumpur, Borneo and Singapore arranged by Hannah at eshores. Everything went smoothly and we had the perfect holiday. We loved our multi centre trip so much we have booked with Hannah to go to South America. Again the service and support is great and so easy to make tweaks to our itinerary. Looking forward to what I'm sure will be another great holiday. I would definitely recommend eshores.

We just booked our first trip with Nick from eshores and will be heading to Vietnam next April. Nick was very patient and professional. He listened to what we wanted and made changes to package where requested. Nick was very knowledgeable and made the process very easy.

During the booking process, Dave has been brilliant, always very quick to respond and answered all of my very many questions. Our travel is not till next year but, if our tour goes as well as our experience to date, it will be fantastic.
