NZ WILDERNESS EXPEDITION

All the wilderness, none of the camping.

 

Inspired by our signature two-week Wilderness Camping Expedition, this new trip is for those who want the same remote tracks, wild scenery, and genuine South Island adventure without camping.

Travel deep into the backcountry by day, then return to local accommodation each night.

 

Our signature adventure, reimagined.


Upcoming tour dates:
 8-19 March 2027

Some of the best journeys start where the road ends.

Experience the South Island off the beaten track. We will explore remote tracks, high mountains, historic gold trails, wild coastlines, river crossings, remote camps and unforgettable backcountry.

 

Our guided 4WD adventures are built for people who want more than a standard holiday. Travel in a relaxed small convoy, drive your own vehicle, and explore remarkable places most visitors never get to see. From rugged Marlborough hill country to the wild West Coast and the open spaces of Central Otago, every trip is about the journey, the driving, the scenery and the satisfaction of getting properly off the beaten track.

 

With expert guidance, well-planned routes, and a choice of wilderness camping or comfort trips, every journey is designed to deliver real adventure, great driving, and a genuine South Island overland experience.

Great tracks. Wild places. Real adventure.

Compared to  Iceland, the American West, and the Arctic Circle, your trip through the remoteness of NZ is right up there! This was one of my best weeks ever! 
 
You’re a great guide and a wonderful companion! You have also made me a far more confident 4WD driver, for which I thank you. 
 
I would recommend coming with you on this trip to anyone wanting to discover New Zealand’s true wilderness.
