Itinéraire

Il est vrai que les moutons sont six fois plus nombreux que les hommes en Nouvelle-Zélande, mais heureusement pour les brebis, cette terre sauvage compte également un nombre impressionnant de montagnes vertigineuses, de forêts tropicales luxuriantes et de fjords époustouflants. La baie des îles de l'île du Nord ouvre la voie aux nombreux sites spectaculaires que vous verrez sur les deux îles à couper le souffle de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Les geysers de Rotorua ne sont surpassés que par les Alpes du Sud, que vous atteindrez depuis la charmante Christchurch en empruntant le train TranzAlpine. Tout au long de votre voyage en Nouvelle-Zélande, vous aurez l'occasion d'admirer des vues incroyables du glacier Franz Josef, de vous réchauffer les orteils dans des sources d'eau chaude naturelles et de participer à toutes les activités que Queenstown, la "capitale mondiale de l'aventure", a à offrir. Les possibilités de se mettre en appétit sont si nombreuses que vous apprécierez un barbecue spécial dans une ferme locale et un dîner dans la maison d'une famille néo-zélandaise. Au cours de ce circuit de 14 jours, vous découvrirez le meilleur de la Nouvelle-Zélande de fond en comble.
