Trip itinerary

Kauri Tour with Pure Discoveries

This journey spans the entire ‘land of the long white cloud’, from the far north to the magnificent south.
Kauri, the name explained: the Kauri is among the world’s mightiest of trees. They are one of the longest-living tree species in the world, as well as the largest. Kauri are considered a taonga (treasure) by many New Zealanders, particularly Māori, who see the health of Kauri as a sign of general wellbeing of the ngahere (forest) and the people.
With friendly local guides providing cultural, historical, and ecological expertise, this tour offers a deep, enriching connection to Aotearoa's people and breathtaking environment. Get ready for three weeks of unparalleled discovery.
