Cruise & Discover New Zealand by Water & Land
Cruising through New Zealand is a journey into a world shaped by nature on a grand scale, where towering fiords, lush rainforests, and hidden coves unfold at every turn. Our featured cruise partner, Heritage Expeditions, reveal this spectacular destination in their own distinctive style.


Heritage Expeditions
Invites you to step off the beaten path aboard their intimate expedition ships, venturing into wild corners of Fiordland, Stewart Island, and even the far-flung Subantarctic Islands. Here, rare wildlife thrives and ancient landscapes feel untouched by time, with expert naturalists enriching every encounter.
Beyond Life on the Water
Shore excursions immerse you in the essence of the North and South Islands
From sipping world-class wines in Marlborough and discovering bubbling geothermal wonders in Rotorua, to experiencing the warmth of Māori culture and exploring Otago’s wildlife havens.
To complete the experience, pre- and post-cruise packages offer the chance to linger a little longer, whether it’s uncovering the vibrant energy of Auckland or unwinding amid the alpine splendour of Queenstown.
Together, these experiences create a voyage that is as enriching and inspiring as the landscapes themselves.
