Join Us on a New Zealand Tour

New Zealand is a sensory journey shaped by volcanic soil, pristine waters, and the ancestral wisdom of Māori culture. We’ll trace the coast from Marlborough to Queenstown, tasting wines born of soil and salt air and learning how local chefs and farmers collaborate in quiet harmony. From oyster shucking and salmon smoking to conversations around sustainable farming, the country’s culinary scene is rich with purpose and rooted in place. This is a trip for those drawn to the details—the scent of crushed herbs underfoot, the sweetness of Otago cherries in summer, the whisper of alpine wind through vines. Every corner hums with life, wonder, and the quiet power of nature.

Location Highlights

A MO/AD Trips to New Zealand

Sip rare wines with celebrated winemakers, cruise through the Marlborough Sounds, and gather for meals shaped by land, sea, and story to dine on produce cooked within view of where it was grown. Each experience is grounded in local rhythm and connection.

The Best Time to Visit New Zealand

We love shoulder seasons for golden light, fresh stone fruits and their peak, and vineyard visits at their most vibrant—when nature and culinary creativity reach a peak without the buzz of peak tourism.

Things to Do in New Zealand

Share meals in the wildflower-rich gardens of family-owned vineyards, cruise past mussel farms in the Sounds, and meet the farmers, cheesemakers, and chefs guiding the country’s celebrated culinary landscape.
