From its snowcapped mountains to its rugged fjords and secluded coves, New Zealand is a land of extraordinary physical beauty and home to some of the world's rarest and most fascinating wildlife. Our expedition takes in the wonders of the South Island before exploring the sub-Antarctic islands, where we have privileged access to remote seabird colonies, including royal albatross and yellow-eyed penguins.
