The North Island is where culture, coastline, and volcanoes collide — wild beaches, bubbling mud pools, massive national parks, and Māori culture that brings serious depth to the adventure.

​

Start in Auckland and head out in any direction — you’ll hit black sand surf beaches, glowworm caves, ancient forests, and hot springs in just a few hours. This island’s made for road trips, with epic stops every step of the way.

​

Rotorua is a geothermal playground — boiling mud pools, natural hot springs, and geysers that literally shoot out of the ground. Stick around for a traditional Māori hangi feast and cultural experience that'll leave a mark in all the right ways.

​

Adrenaline junkie? Taupō and the Tongariro Crossing are calling. Hike across volcanic landscapes that feel straight out of another planet (because they kind of are — this is Mordor, after all). Or take the leap with skydives, bungy jumps, and jet boat rides that crank the energy up to 11.

​

Want something slower? The Coromandel serves up golden beaches and hidden coves — perfect for beach hikes, kayaking, and that classic “dig your own hot tub” moment at Hot Water Beach. Or head north to the Bay of Islands for dolphin cruises, island hopping, and laid-back coastal towns.

​

Wellington caps things off with artsy vibes, craft beers, and a café scene that punches way above its size. It’s the perfect place to wrap up your North Island adventure — or gear up before heading south.

​

Tours across the North Island blend culture, nature, and straight-up good times — with surf spots, sacred sites, thermal valleys, and waterfall hikes all rolled into one unforgettable ride.

​

The landscapes are wild, the stories run deep, and the road ahead is wide open. The North Island is ready when you are.
