DESCRIPTION
Our favourite photos from our New Zealand walking tour in January 2014. Thirteen day fully guided small group tour through Southwest World Heritage Area. We walked on the Milford, Routeburn and Hollyford Tracks plus in Arthur's Pass and Mt Cook National Parks. As well as the great hiking the tour includes iconic activities like the TranzAlpine, Fiordland helicopter flight, backcountry jetboat and an overnight lodge stay in remote Fiordland National Park. The guide was Andrew Wells from New Zealand Trails.
