Update – congrats to Kendra for winning the trip to New Zealand with me in October 2017 – we still have spots available on my next trip in March 2018
Hello all!
In March this year I hosted for my very first group trip around New Zealand with Haka Tours. It was fun and epic and I decided I wanted to do some more.
Last week I announced two more adventure tours with me around New Zealand. The first trip is 12 days and goes around the South Island. This was the same trip I did with Haka Tours way back when in 2013 and it’s pretty much what made me move to Wanaka. You’ve been warned.
From sleeping under the stars in the Abel Tasman National Park to walking beneath glacier to swimming in turquoise lakes to throwing yourself off very high places to drinking wine under the sun in pretty much the most epically beautiful country in the world, I promise it’s going to be amazing.
The second trip is in March 2018 next year and it’s a bit fancier, it’s for 14 days and goes around both islands.
But this week when I was catching up with Haka Tours, I realized I haven’t done a giveaway on here in quite a while.
Can you forgive me?
Well, you better because we’ve decided I’m going to give one of you guys a spot on my October trip around New Zealand with Haka Tours. Wahoo! Come join me for 12 amazing days as I show you all my favorite spots around the South Island.
Here is your chance for a free trip to New Zealand (minus flights, sorry!)
The giveaway will run for the next week and end at noon Wednesday September 6, 2017 NZ time (8pm EST Tuesday Sept 5th). You can enter below on Rafflecopter. Be sure to leave me a comment below and tell me why you want to visit New Zealand! Good luck!
Here’s a little visual inspiration to get you excited!















I have never been out of the US and want to see the beautiful waters that surround NZ
NZ is a great place to start!
What an amazing trip!
sure is!
A few years ago, your blog photos inspired me to go to Iceland on a road trip with my dad. We drove around the whole island and loved it. Now I have a chance to go to Australia and figured I’d head over to NZ too since its relatively close 😀 New Zealand reminds me of Iceland because of its epic otherworldly beauty. I can’t wait to explore NZ next spring and looking at your blog for inspiration. Entered the raffle, cuz why not?! but otherwise my plan is to rent a camper van and spend 3-4 weeks driving from Auckland down to the South Island hopefully doing some rockclimbing, hiking, and adventuring and then flying back to Australia from Christchurch. It’s gonna be so amazing!!! Can’t wait 😀 😀 😀
oh that’s great!
Would love to visit for the combination of mountains and beaches with the opportunity for some wonderful hikes!
Yes there’s all of that!
