The programmes

Both islands, every format.

Milford Sound, New Zealand
Classic · 14 nights

North and South Island Classic

Auckland to Milford Sound in one direction — geothermal Rotorua, the Cook Strait ferry, Abel Tasman, the West Coast glaciers and Queenstown, with no leg doubled back.

The Lake Tekapo shore with snowy mountains beyond
Self-drive · 10 nights

South Island Self-Drive

A Christchurch-return loop through the Mackenzie Country, the southern lakes, Fiordland and the Otago coast — drive days kept to around three hours so the trip is not spent behind the wheel.

The road leading to Milford Sound
Campervan · 12 nights

South Island Campervan Loop

Twelve nights round the South Island in a campervan, with every night pre-booked at a holiday park so nobody spends the evening looking for a place to stop.

The Te Puia geyser in Rotorua
Culture · 7 nights

North Island Culture and Geothermal

Glowworm caves, Rotorua’s geothermal valleys and Māori cultural experiences, Lake Taupō and Art Deco Napier — the North Island in a week, with time given to the culture rather than a single evening show.

The Remarkables range from a Queenstown lookout
Luxury · 6 nights

Queenstown and Fiordland Lodges

Lake Wakatipu, Glenorchy, a night in Fiordland and Central Otago wine, from luxury lodge bases with a private driver — short transfers, no long drive days.

Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu from above
MICE · 5 nights

Queenstown Incentive Programme

A five-night incentive built on Queenstown’s compact layout — a conference morning, lake and mountain activities, a Central Otago wine afternoon and a gala dinner, without long coach transfers.

Lion Rock on Piha beach, west of Auckland
Incentive · 4 nights

Auckland and Hauraki Gulf Incentive

Four nights in Auckland with the Hauraki Gulf as the venue — harbour sailing, a Waiheke Island winery day and the black-sand west coast, all within an hour of the hotel.

Autumn foliage reflected in Lake Dunstan, Central Otago
Food & wine · 8 nights

New Zealand Food and Wine

Three wine regions in eight nights — Hawke’s Bay, Marlborough and Central Otago — linked by domestic flights rather than long drives, with cellar doors, producers and the Marlborough Sounds.

Stars over snow-capped peaks at Queenstown
Ski · 7 nights

Queenstown and Wānaka Ski

Four ski areas from two bases — Coronet Peak and The Remarkables from Queenstown, Cardrona and Treble Cone from Wānaka — in the southern-hemisphere winter.

Hooker Valley Track with a view of Aoraki / Mount Cook
Walking · 9 nights

Guided Milford Track and Aoraki

The Milford Track on a guided walk with lodge nights, preceded by Aoraki / Mount Cook and Queenstown — the Great Walk most clients ask for by name, with the warm-up and the recovery built in.

The Hobbiton Movie Set in Matamata
Family · 8 nights

North Island Family Programme

Auckland, Coromandel beaches, Rotorua’s geysers and Hobbiton, paced for children — no drive longer than about three hours and two- or three-night stays throughout.

On pricing

Why no page prints a price.

Our rates are confidential net rates, quoted to the travel agent against a specific brief — party size, dates, hotel category and inclusions. A public price would either mislead a traveller or undercut the agent selling the trip, so these pages state what is included and what is not instead.

Seasons matter more than most clients expect. December to February is the domestic summer peak, when ferry vehicle space, campervans and Queenstown rooms tighten; the ski season runs through the southern winter; and walking programmes follow the Great Walk season.

How to use these

Start here, then change it.

None of these is a fixed departure. Add nights, drop a base, move the hotel category up or down, or join two together — a North Island culture week ahead of a South Island self-drive is a natural pairing. The day-by-day exists so you can see the shape and adjust it.

Send the brief to b2b@explera.co.nz and we will quote the version you want at net rates, under your brand, with your client staying yours. See also our FIT and tailor-made, MICE and self-drive services, and the destination guides.

FAQ

New Zealand itineraries — what agents ask.

Does Explera DMC New Zealand sell ready-made New Zealand itineraries to agents?

Yes. These are shaped programmes at confidential net rates, quoted to the travel agent and run white-label under your brand. Each is a starting point rather than a fixed departure — nights, bases and pace all move to suit the party.

Why are there no prices on these pages?

Because the rates are confidential net rates quoted to the trade, per brief. Each page states what is included and what is not, which is what an agent needs to build a sell price.

Can these itineraries be changed?

They are meant to be. Add or drop nights, change the bases, raise or lower the hotel category, or join two together. Send the brief and we will quote the version you want.
