Fiordland and Te Anau holidays in New Zealand’s South Island are an adventurer’s dream, with majestic forest scenery, breath-taking waterfalls, crystal-clear waters, a medley of exotic wildlife, and scenic treks. Book your trip of a lifetime in this unspoilt part of the world with your nearest and dearest.
To fully unearth all the wonderful sights and sounds of the Fiordlands and Te Anau Lake – a UNESCO World Heritage site – travel by boat or air. Hop on board a beautiful cruise boat to see the intriguing network of limestone caves, complete with ethereal glowworms that light the way. Or take a helicopter tour to enjoy a bird’s eye view of the spectacular vegetation and thundering waterfalls. Once you’re back on land, get to know the area with numerous walking trails, including the Milford Track and Kepler Track.
Fiordland and Te Anau holidays: home to nature
Boat cruises from Te Anau town offer the opportunity to get up close to the Fiordland’s dramatic cliffs, with the option to kayak around the lesser seen and lesser trodden parts. It’s perfect for explorers and curious minds. Guided walks are ideal for learning about the history of the area, with routes that include the delightful Clinton River. Rest overnight in the tranquillity of a luxurious lodge and find out what it really means to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.
While you’re in the South Island, we recommend a two day escorted tour to Milford Sound or Doubtful Sound, where penguins, seals and dolphins are frequently spotted. Or if you have more time, why not sign up for a longer trip and visit much loved spots like Kaikoura? Indulge in some whale spotting and then sample some of the region’s best tipples with a wine tasting tour in Marlborough – particularly popular with honeymooners and older couples. Our multi-centre holidays in Fiordland and Te Anau are also a great choice for travellers wanting to enjoy New Zealand to the fullest.
