The Long White Cloud Tour

Try to imagine an extraordinary adventure that doesn’t end ….
New Zealand was first discovered about 1000 years ago by the great Polynesian navigator Kupe who sailed here from his homeland Hawaiki. He named the islands Aotearoa, or “Land of the Long White Cloud”. Kupe returned to Hawaiki and left instruction on how to get here. About 400 years later Maori arrived back in Aotearoa with seven great canoes and began to populate the NorthIsland. Fly the length of the Long White Cloud on this tour.
This tour includes all the highlights of our seven and eleven-day itineraries, plus those in the North.
Less mountainous than the south, the North Island has a central volcanic plateau – still active with boiling mud pools, geysers and steam vents. It is also a major center of Maori art and culture where you can enjoy some of the best of this. Take your time in the modern museum of New Zealand (Te Papa) in Wellington. Visit the warm wine and fruit growing regions of the East Coast. Fly north to remote East Cape, thento the Coromandel Peninsula and Hauraki Gulf. Still further north fly the 90 mile beach to Cape Reinga (the very northern tip of New Zealand) and enjoy the semi tropical areas of Northland and the Bay of Islands.
Beginning at one end of the country and finishing at the other, The Long White Cloud makes very good use of your time in New Zealand.
