Kiwi Encounter

Wherever you look in New Zealand it’s beauty, beauty and more beauty. You’ll see everything from thermal grounds, soaring volcanoes and towering mountains to mirror-like lakes. 

Journey through wine regions (and try the local tipples) and chill out in a craft beer capital. Make friends for life and see the best that NZ has to offer.
