DAY 1- Welcome to Wellington Welcome to Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand’s vibrant capital city, where your Northern Kiwi adventure begins. Wellington, though compact in size, is surrounded by nature and fueled by creative energy. If you have time today, explore all that the city has to offer. Stroll along the waterfront, discover the stories of New Zealand in the Te Papa museum, or treat your tastebuds to one of the many world-class cafes and restaurants this city offers. DAY 2- Wellington to River Valley It's time to hit the road! Today we travel to River Valley, the perfect setting to immerse yourself in nature. Located beside the Rangitikei River in the central North Island of New Zealand, River Valley is a remote lodge where you can seek adventure or embrace the solitude and blissfully disconnect DAY 3- River Valley to Taupo Today we continue north to Taupō, a place of extraordinary natural beauty and wonder centred on a vast, sparkling lake formed from a volcanic eruption. Day 4- Taupo Free Day Love this place. Love Taupō. Aroha ki tēnei wāhi. Arohaina Taupō. Today is at your leisure; feel free to explore; you can book one of the many optional activities online via the Trip Planner. If you are looking for a challenge, The Tongariro Alpine Crossing is heralded as the best one-day hike in New Zealand. The crossing is also regarded as one of the top ten-day hikes in the world. Day 5- Taupo to Rotorua We'll start the day with a short walk to Huka Falls, before continuing on to the geothermal wonderland of Rotorua; a mystical land of bubbling mud pools, rocketing geysers and natural hot springs.

If you'd rather relax and unwind, spend the day at Secret Spot Hot Tubs and soak in your own tub surrounded by ferns and overlooking the stunning Whakarewarewa Forest.
