New Zealand may be on the far side of the world, but it’s well worth the journey. This is a place where landscapes change dramatically from one region to the next, where hiking trails lead through ancient forests, along golden beaches, and across dramatic alpine passes. Whether you're into natural wonders, unique wildlife, or discovering new cultures, New Zealand offers a truly rewarding experience for active travelers.
At Macs, we make it easy to explore both the North and South Islands at your own pace. Our most popular walking adventures include The Best of New Zealand, a 26-day journey across iconic tracks and highlights, and Highlights of New Zealand, a shorter but equally inspiring option. Looking for something a little more focused? The South Island Adventure dives deep into Fiordland, glaciers, and the wild beauty of Stewart Island. You can also choose inn-to-inn walking trips like the Abel Tasman Track and Queen Charlotte Track, where every day ends with a cozy stay and a satisfying sense of achievement.
Whether exploring at your pace on a Drive and Hike trip, or choosing a classic trail, New Zealand is a hiker's dream destination. Let Macs Adventure guide you through an unforgettable self-guided New Zealand experience!
Wow! Spectacular Itinerary
The Itinerary for this trip was amazing from start to finish. I didn't want to be finished. Every day was spectacular.
Fantastic independent way to experience amazing New Zealand!
Drive and Hike adventures with Macs Adventures allow you freedom to explore, experience and enjoy a trip in your own way, without the worry of making arrangements for accommodations.
Trip of a Lifetime!
We absolutely loved this tour of New Zealand, which is the most beautiful country! New Zealand has a lot to offer and this thoughtfully curated tour hit all the best spots! Accommodations were varied and all were special in their own way. Everything was perfectly organized, from the time the transfer took us to pick up our rental car to the time we dropped off our rental car--all ferries and boats were booked, park passes were paid for us, and on and on!
We wouldn't have changed a thing about this trip, expect to double its length so we could spend even more time exploring each location. Highly recommend!
