Explore the breathtaking beauty of New Zealand's South Island with ZigZag Tours this January and February. From rugged mountains to chilled-out coastal towns, we’ve got it all covered. We know the best hidden gems and local legends, so you’ll get an authentic taste of Kiwi life along the way. Get ready to zigzag your way through paradise!
Get the best of both islands with ZigZag Tours from February to May, as we take you on an epic journey across both the South and North Islands of New Zealand. From the dramatic landscapes of the South Island to the rich culture and stunning coastlines of the North, you'll experience all the highlights and hidden gems.
90 days guided travel to lots of New Zealand’s stunning beauty spots in a customised Mercedes Sprinter maxi van, with your own individual leather seat. 89 nights at handpicked campsites across the country (and the odd lodge and hostel here and there) with your very own easy to put up canvas tent, camp stretcher and chair (supplied by ZigZag). A maximum group size of ten passengers per tour, two guides, and all road tolls and ferry crossings. We also include a range of paid attractions and activities in both islands. 97% of your breakfasts and 70% of your dinners are also included. For all your inclusions, and the details for our other ZigZag tours, please refer to the specific ‘Trip’ details page.
Your flights, visas/passport costs, airport transfers, accommodation before and after the tour, travel insurance, meals that are not specified in the itinerary, drinks other than water, tea, coffee, and hot chocolate provided by ZigZag, laundry, phone and internet, and any optional excursions, activities and experiences not included in the itinerary.
There will be up to 10 people per trip
There is no age limit, but we have designed our trips with mature, solo travelers and couples in mind. So, it ain’t a party bus, but we still know how to have fun.
Please refer to our 'Kit list' for an extensive overview of what to bring.
Still on the fence or feeling a bit puzzled?
No worries! Book a call to meet your tour guides before you lock in your trip. We've spent most of our adult lives exploring the world—and lately, New Zealand. Better yet, we've been right where you are now (figuratively speaking—we're not actually in your seat!).
So we totally get it. If you'd like to get your questions answered about any of our tours, book a call with Jemma and Grant below.
