Explore one of New Zealand's last outposts, meet the locals, discover the wildlife and hear about the islands rich culture and history.

We meet at Blenheim Airport and are transferred to the island by minivan and boat. Includes beach cottage accommodation, meals on the island, return ferry crossing, minivan transport, boat cruise, blue cod fishing and water taxi.
