Join like-minded garden lovers like you on expertly curated tours through some of New Zealand's most stunning spring landscapes. Our small group tours blend exclusive garden visits, vibrant local events, and local hospitality - often from the gardeners themselves! From the rhododendron-rich paths of Taranaki to the historic gardens of Otago, each itinerary offers unique experiences, scenic travel routes, and the chance to connect with passionate gardeners along the way.

We have the following special interest garden tours departing this spring:

The Gardener

Discover New Zealand's wonderful gardens on one of our small group tours. From renowned gardens of national significance to some hidden gems you'll never forget, you don't have to be a gardener to appreciate a beautiful garden and the wonderful hospitality of our friends, the gardeners.

Garden Size

You will enjoy our tours if you have good health and mobility. For health, Safety, and Well-Being reasons, it's important that you can use the steps to get on and off our coach with minimal or no assistance. All our tours require a certain amount of walking, and you need to be comfortable walking on uneven ground and be able to walk at least 200 metres unassisted. We strongly recommend bringing a walking stick or a hiking-style walking pole for extra stability and to help prevent tripping.

Info

Accommodation

When you’re travelling, we know the importance of being comfortable each night. Imagine waking up in the alpine wonderland of Mount Cook National Park, or falling asleep to the sound of the Tasman Sea breaking on the beach in Punakaiki. We’ve handpicked all of the accommodations on our tours, many are places we've been visiting for years and have come to know the owners as friends. Rest assured, you are in good hands.
