7
Days
6
Nights
Six nights across the South Island from Christchurch through Lake Tekapo to Queenstown, with return flights and visa included.
Lake Tekapo's turquoise lake and the Church of the Good Shepherd anchor this six-night South Island coach tour that runs from Christchurch over the Mackenzie Country to three nights in Queenstown. Intercity transfers link the route and visa assistance is included for a focused southern trip.
