Private
and Small Group Guided Tours of New Zealand designed for mature,
active travellers. Great
personal service with walking, wildlife and cultural experiences.
Creative Adventures is an independent, boutique guided-tour company providing innovative, high quality, nature-focused, soft-adventure tours of New Zealand.
Since 1999 we have designed and hosted discerning guests during Private or Small Group holidays combining a high standard of personal service, character accommodation, incredible restaurants and easy-but-active outdoor experiences - experiences that are more personal, authentic and based on principles of responsible eco-tourism.
During a Creative Adventures tour you will visit some of New Zealand’s most famous and incredibly beautiful locations, and some locations which are just as special for not being so famous. We prefer to walk through the New Zealand landscape, meet local people, carefully observe marine and bird-life, and enjoy the company of like-minded travelers.
Our carefully-planned itineraries are designed to minimize driving time and maximize "doing" time, enabling you to make the most of your day. No prior experience is necessary for the various activities we arrange. Guests can opt out of anything they don't wish to do and, with the assistance of their guides, other activities can be arranged. Personal service, flexibility and satisfaction are our objectives.
“The tour suited our pace, taste and budget. I realised that, throughout the trip,
I had left my worries back home. 100% relaxed" - Grace W
Local nature guides and specially-arranged activities convey a deeper insight into New Zealand’s ecology and culture, history and current affairs. At the end of each day a refreshing glass of Sauvignon Blanc and delicious local cuisine are in order before retiring to boutique ensuite accommodation.
Private New Zealand Tours are custom-designed to suit the interests, travel dates and preferred traveling style of couples, families and small groups. Select your destinations, your accommodation, and your activities. Enjoy the dedicated personal service of your own private guide. Private guided tours offer the most flexibility without compromise.
Our Scheduled Small Group New Zealand Tours have creative itineraries based on themes of great sightseeing or multi-day hiking, with lots of great sightseeing mixed in - exploring the town and country, wilderness, wildlife and conservation. Our maximum group size is 12 guests hosted by 2 dedicated New Zealand guides driving 2 well-equipped touring vehicles. These small-group tours are suitable for mature people with average fitness and a sense of adventure, seeking more personal service and boutique accommodation than regular coach tours.
“We enjoyed a personal, friendly, cosy tour of a kind that we seldom find” – Kitty C
Creative Adventures is a private New Zealand-owned company. If self-drive vacations and large coach tours are not right for you then we may be just what you need. Join us for an inspired adventure with friendly and devoted hospitality from professional Kiwi hosts.
