What accommodation is included on the Northern Voyager?

The 7 Day Northern Voyager is designed specifically for travellers aged 18–39, creating a social environment with people in a similar stage of life. The tour is ideal for younger travellers who want to explore New Zealand, meet new people and enjoy a mix of sightseeing, outdoor adventures and free time. With a maximum of 18 guests, the small-group format makes it easy to get to know your fellow travellers along the way.

Although the 7-day itinerary covers a lot of ground, there is still time to explore independently and choose activities that suit your interests. Several stops include free time, particularly in Rotorua, Taupō and Raglan, where you can relax, explore locally or take part in optional activities. This flexible approach means you can make the trip as adventurous or laid-back as you like while still experiencing the tour’s main highlights.

Yes, the Northern Voyager is particularly well suited to solo travellers who want to explore New Zealand without organising transport and accommodation themselves. Groups are capped at 18 guests, creating a smaller and more social experience than a large coach tour. The tour is designed for travellers aged 18–39, so you’ll be travelling alongside other people looking for an active and social New Zealand adventure.

There are plenty of optional activities to choose from, particularly during the free-choice days in Rotorua and Taupō. You could try white-water rafting, luging, zorbing, jet boating, skydiving or sailing, while hiking and wildlife spotting are also available. In Rotorua, you can also choose to experience a Māori cultural evening and hāngī dinner, while Waitomo offers opportunities to explore its famous glowworm caves.
