Benefiting from a sunny, maritime climate, the picturesque valley vineyards of Nelson yield some of New Zealand’s most freshly scented, intensely flavoured sauvignon blanc and chardonnay, as well as vibrant, supple pinot noir.

The famously creative local culture extends to wine making in a multitude of privately owned boutique vineyards. Nelson winemakers are recognised for crafting wonderfully drinkable wines that stand apart from the typical commercial styles. Wines from Neudorf Estate have found their way onto the wine lists of several great European restaurants, and Kaimera Estate wines are exported to the UK, Ireland, Singapore and the USA.

If you’re driving around the region, keep your eye out for eating opportunities. A variety of artisan food producers will tempt you with breads, chocolates, pesto, chutneys, honey and jams, fine meats and salami. At Mapua there’s a smokehouse with an adjacent café - the menu includes fish, mussels and vegetables delicately hot smoked on site. In Motueka you’ll find great organic café food.

The city of Nelson is known for its waterfront restaurants. Golden Bay scallops take pride of place among a wide selection of fresh local ingredients. The culinary approach throughout the region is perhaps best described as ‘slow food’. It’s about creating rather than producing, and savouring rather than consuming.

Queenstown is the New Zealand destination for international visitors. Its natural beauty changes with the seasons, the lake gleans in the summer sun, and snow clad mountains tower above the township in winter. Queenstown is a great place to visit all year round. Nestled in beside the mysterious Lake Wakatipu, in the Southern Lakes district of New Zealand, Queenstown is a cosmopolitan haven, offering a limitless adventure, southern wine and cuisine, and breathtaking alpine scenery.

Queenstown doesn't earn its title of Adventure Capital of the World for nothing. Here, you can bungy jump, ski or snowboard, paraglide, jet boat, white water raft, skydive, hang glide, jetski, and drive quadbikes to your heart's content!

For its remoteness, Queenstown is one the busiest little towns in the country, sporting the equivalent to around half the population of New Zealand in tourists in 2006, who came to experience the unique "Adventure Capital of the World", and to relax on the scenic walks, flights, and cruises, taking in the vast lakes, rushing rivers, and awe-inspiring mountains.

Queenstown possesses the perfect location to base yourself while you explore the wonders of Fiordland National Park and the rest of the Southern Lakes region. The magnificence of Queenstown's lake side location and the range of accommodation and attractions available make it an essential part of any visit to New Zealand.

Dunedin offers a wide range of Accommodation, Restaurants, Arts & Crafts, Attractions and Eco Tours & Cruises to the Wildlife situated on the Otago Peninsula that is unique in the world.

Dunedin, New Zealand's oldest city, a university city of Scottish heritage, possesses a unique combination of cultural riches, fine architecture, and world-famous wildlife reserves on the Otago Peninsula.

Situated on the south-eastern coast of New Zealand's South Island, Dunedin has a population of around 125,000 and is the main centre of Otago, a region recognized for its spectacular scenery.

The sheer physical beauty of Dunedin, dramatic bush-covered hills and valleys at the head of a long natural harbour, attracted Maori settlers to the site over four centuries ago. Then, in 1848, Scottish migrants established a town here, giving it the ancient name of Edinburgh.

Thirteen years later gold was discovered about 120 kilometers inland, in Central Otago, and the small settlement of Dunedin became the centre for the nation's wealth. Soaring cathedral spires, a magnificent Flemish-style railway station, fine banks and office blocks, a nineteenth-century castle, old university buildings and a neo-gothic convent are among the city's architectural treasures.

This 3 night / 2 day package includes:

• 2 nights accommodation including daily cooked breakfast

• Private arrival transfer from airport to hotel
• SIC/shuttle departure transfer from hotel to airport

• Enjoy a double-decker bus tour of historic Dunedin followed by a tour of New Zealand’s only castle, Larnach Castle.
