For several years now, the Paganels have been traveling around New Zealand. In 2020, we lived for several months in this country, covering almost 13,500 km. We have something to show you, and we know how to do it as brightly and richly as possible. In 2024, we conducted two large jeep expeditions around New Zealand with great success. The 2025 Paganel expedition to New Zealand will also be carried out by jeep, but now we will go on a spring trip, which promises many very beautiful and interesting things.
New Zealand is the furthest country from Europe, located exactly on the other side of the globe from Spain and England. Amazing nature awaits us in the country “on the contrary”. It’s a very long way to fly there, so we decided to have time to see everything, or almost EVERYTHING, the 17-day program is very large and very eventful, we get to see the very best that is possible in such a short period of time.
There is no need to advertise New Zealand. This incredibly beautiful and unique region has preserved its pristine nature and originality. Our trip will combine the most interesting, from our point of view, places on two New Zealand islands at once, which can be accommodated in 17 days of travel.
We will begin the expedition on the North Island, where we will see Auckland; incredible firefly caves, where we will climb in helmets and with flashlights and do a unique Black Water Rafting. We will visit a Maori village, where we will see the famous Haka war dance; we will visit the hobbits in Hobbitonia and get to the edge of the Wai-o-Tapu geysers; We will climb a replica of Fuji - the Taranaki volcano, and then, having moved to the South Island, we will continue to get acquainted with New Zealand.
In the South, we get to see and “touch” beaches, animals and birds, the city of extreme entertainment Queenstown, Fiordland National Park and the sung Milford Sound, Aoraki Park, Mount Cook and Lake Matheson, the Franz Joseph Glacier, Punakaiki and much more.
The second group will walk this route in reverse order. They will start in Christchurch and end in Auckland.
It will be a very, very beautiful, eventful, interesting journey! You are lucky if you see all this with your own eyes.

Air agents or airlines from which tickets were purchased are responsible for the purchase and technical support.
ITINERARY
Day 1
18.10.2025
Flight from your home to Auckland. Due to the fact that our trip begins and ends in different places (Auckland - Christchurch), we recommend buying flights on airlines that fly to both cities: Emirates, Southrn China, Singapore Air, etc.
Independent transfer to a cozy, comfortable 4* hotel, which is located next to the airport. Getting to know your expedition leadership team. Rest after a long flight.
In the evening we gather in the hotel lobby for a briefing. We check whether maps and points along the route are installed. The crews get to know each other.
Day 2
19.10.2025
In the morning we pack our things. Packing. Drivers are busy getting jeeps. Having completed all the formalities, they return to pick up their crews, who are patiently waiting at the hotel. We load things into cars. We receive the latest instructions on the schedule and route and move towards the legendary Rotorua - the most geothermal city on Earth.
However, first we will visit the iconic Hobbiton! Our first move is 160 km and the first stop is the same Shire - the village of hobbits from the film The Lord of the Rings, thanks to which the whole world recognized the beauty of New Zealand.
The village is incredibly popular among tourists, because everything is arranged in such a way as if hobbits actually live in the village.
Hobbit houses were built in New Zealand for the filming of The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien's story impressed director Jackson so much that he decided to build a life-size set from real materials.
After negotiations with successful farmers, the film group was given permission to build a real village. Construction work began in 1999.
At the end of 2023, two new unique locations opened in Hobbiton, which you will definitely see. Since December 2023, two identical Hobbit Holes have been open to the public.
Two fully equipped underground hobbit houses, with kitchen, toilet, storage rooms, bedrooms, living rooms, etc. Teams of leading set designers who worked on the original films were brought in to create these Hobbit Holes.
We will visit one of two mirror-like Hobbit Holes.
Now the tourist village consists of 37 houses with round facades and carved windows. The village has a bridge over the lake, a garden, and a pasture for animals.
The mill and hedges add to the rustic charm. In Hobbiton there is a bar called the Green Dragon, where they serve mugs of ale to everyone.
At the end of the 2.5 hour program in the world of hobbits, we sit down in our cars and drive another 75 km to the thermal capital of the country - Rotorua.
Upon arrival in Rotorua, we check into a hotel where we will spend the next three nights. Then we get ourselves in order. We go for a walk around the city. Those who wish can go to the thermal springs for which this region is famous.
In the evening we get together and spend a traditional Paganel dating evening. We present expedition T-shirts and badges. Dinner. Rest.
Day 3
20.10.2025
We get up early. We have breakfast with our own supplies. Today we have a new wonderful busy day.
Travel 70 km to the very beautiful Orakei Korako geothermal park. We all get together and check in. We board a local boat and first cross the river, and then go for a walk to Ruatapu Cave.
There was once a Maori settlement nearby. In their Orakei language, Korako means "sparkling ornament". Ruatapu Cave and the Pool of Mirrors were sacred to Maori women and men were prohibited from entering.
Maori women used these places for ritual ceremonies to celebrate the birth of children or to prepare for marriage. They sang waiata songs, which could be heard right on the other side of the river, due to the special shape of the grotto. Apart from this, Ruatapu Cave is unremarkable, it’s just a grotto in the rock, but the forest around is simply incredibly magical.
In 1900, a special ceremony was held to allow men to enter the cave, and after that, the entire Orakei Korako Park was opened to tourists. Until the 1930s, visitors were transported by traditional waka boats, then by regular boats, and in the second half of the 20th century, by motor boats. A resort opened here in 1937, which still exists today. We have lunch in the park.
By mid-afternoon we return to Rotorua for lunch. A few hours of free time until the evening. In the evening we will visit the stylized Mitai Māori Village, where we can get to know the warlike aborigines of New Zealand better, talk about life, and maybe dance and sing a little.
We will listen to the legendary war song of Haka.
We will try some of the Maori cuisine of Honi. Another hundred beautiful photographs are provided to you.
We spend the night in the same hotel in Rotorua.
Day 4
21.10.2025
This day will be no less interesting than the previous one. Rotorua, a city located in surrounding by several extinct volcanoes near a lake, is famous for its geysers, lakes, and, of course, the history of the warlike Maori tribes. In the Maori language, the name of the city sounds quite simple - “the second great lake of our chief Kaumatamooi.” This ancient Kaumatamooi was the nephew of a respected man, a chief.
In the morning we go to the Wai o Tapu Geyser Park or to visit the “devil”. We do not promise to see it itself, but we can feel the surroundings. “The Gates of Hell”, “The Devil’s Inkwell” – we will definitely visit all these amazing places. Impressionable Europeans gave to geysers the English names, and the Maori called these places more romantically - “Sacred Waters”.
This is all an area with high geothermal activity. Having finished the walk, we buy souvenirs at a local store and go for a swim at Waikite Thermal Pools, where we swim in the thermal pools for an hour and a half.
We return to Rotorua for lunch. We will have lunch at one of the city's restaurants, and then we will have a walk in a beautiful and very unusual place called Red Woods.
The Redwoods are a large forest of California redwoods and native ferns that grow beautifully among the giant trunks. It is named after the famous American Giant Sequoia Park in California. The Redwoods area is part of the greater Whakarewarewa forest. In 2015, about 700 meters of tracks were suspended here at a height of ten to fifteen meters. Now you can walk along suspended paths among giant trees.
In December 2016, night walks in the suspended park were made available. One advanced New Zealand artist, David Trubridge, created a design for a night park, placing huge lanterns on the trees and various themed lighting. It became simply incredible.
Next, we buy some breakfast treats from the supermarket. Dinner. Rest. Overnight in Rotorua.
If you have any strength left, then optionally go for a swim again in the Polynesian Thermal Spas, which are well-known among the local sophisticated public.
Day 5
22.10.2025
We have a great and busy day today. We need to get everything done, so we wake up early. We have breakfast ourselves. We load into the jeeps. We refuel the cars. We place points on the maps. First, we put swimsuits and towels in small backpacks. We drive about 145 km to the place where we will experience an amazing and very interesting, slightly extreme adventure in the Waitomo glowworm caves.
We arrive at the base, where we undergo detailed instructions. We divide the group into 2 parts. The first and second parts of the Paganel detachment will go to the caves with a difference of 30 minutes. We change into swimsuits and swimming trunks. We get wetsuits with a thickness of 5 mm of neoprene (the water temperature in the underground river where we will dive is about 12-15 degrees Celsius). We try on boots, helmets and flashlights. We receive special inflatable rings on which we will float along the underground river. We train with local instructors-guides on overcoming obstacles in caves, jumping from waterfalls, etc.
We leave phones and cameras for storage in our jeeps (local guides will take photographs of you inside the caves). We load into a special shuttle bus and go to the place where our Black Water Rafting tour begins.
We will not describe what will happen to you there. I can say that it will be a very unusual and bright adventure that you will remember for the rest of your life. The total time of the event will take you and me about 3 hours. We climb a lot in caves, swim along underground rivers, jump into small waterfalls, admire stalactites, stalagmites and the glowing famous mosquitoes - Titiwai, whose larvae “cry” and emit light, not just for illumination, but as an insect bait, perhaps, their own relatives. And the more hungry the larva is, the stronger the light. It looks very beautiful and cosmic. We get out of the caves. We hand over wetsuits, helmets, flashlights and boots, take our towels and go take a hot shower. After the shower, we go to a local cafe, where we will all be fed delicious soup with bagels. We get into our cars and continue our journey.
Then drive another 172 km to the city of New Plymouth. Along the way, closer to sunset, we see the Three Sisters place, famous among photographers, and if the tide allows, we walk near these beautiful rocks and arches.
Upon arrival in the city, we check into a hotel for 2 nights. Dinner. Rest. Total mileage today is 320 km
Day 6
23.10.2025
Today is a difficult day for us, but surprisingly beautiful. We will make a pre-dawn trek to the incredibly beautiful Taranaki volcano. We get up at night long before dawn. Drive 20 km to the starting point of the track, where we park our cars, take flashlights and for about 2 hours we walk to a very beautiful small mountain lake on the slope of a volcano, from where you can photograph incredible views of the sunrise over Taranaki.
At an altitude of 2518 meters, Taranaki Volcano is one of the most symmetrical cones in the world and has a great resemblance to Fuji, thanks to which it played one of the main roles in the movie “The Last Samurai” along with Tom Cruise. Anyone who has been to Japan will appreciate the similarity of these two volcanic peaks when they get here.
Now the area around the volcano is the Egmont National Park. The park was founded in 1900, making Egmont one of New Zealand's oldest nature reserves.
Having met the sunrise, enjoying the amazing views, we leisurely descend through a very beautiful forest to our parking lot, get into the jeeps and go to rest at the hotel. We have lunch in the city. We will relax. In the afternoon we take sandwiches, snacks, wine, fruit and go for an evening picnic to the Three Sisters.
If we were not able to take a walk to the rocks the previous day, we will do it during the evening picnic. We enjoy a wonderful evening and relax.
Return to New Plymouth. Dinner. Rest.
Day 7
24.10.2025
We wake up, have breakfast ourselves, refuel the car and drive towards Wellington. Those who wish can again watch the sunrise with a view of Taranaki from one of the city’s viewing platforms.
Travel to Wellington 360 km. On the way, we will stop at the Southward Car Museum so that those interested can optionally see one of the largest private museums of vintage cars in the Southern Hemisphere.
In the Maori language, the place where modern Wellington is located was called “Great Tara Bay or the head of the Maui fish.” The city is considered the windiest capital in the world.
We try to arrive in town by lunchtime. We immediately go to the embankment to visit the chic local history museum, which is really worth seeing.
There are many artifacts and photographs from the history of the development of New Zealand and the life of the Maori tribe.
It is also worth paying attention to the unique exhibitions on the ground floor of the building dedicated to New Zealand's participation in the First World War.
Check-in at a hotel in the central part of the city. Dinner. Rest.
Day 8
25.10.2025
Early rise again. The first morning ferry awaits us. We drive the jeeps to the collection point at the port in advance. We do a check-in. We load onto the ship. We cross the strait and arrive at the South Island. The Wellington-Picton ferry service is more than just a ship carrying passengers, cars, huge container ships and entire carriages across the roaring Cook Strait. According to tourists, this is a beautiful and exciting cruise of 3.5 hours, adorned by the deep Marlborough Fjords. The ferry moves slowly and majestically along the shores, covered with bright greenery, which gives us the opportunity to admire them from the open deck. Or maybe you will be lucky enough to see killer whales or dolphins playing.
We arrive at the port of Picton, located in the depths of the Fjord. On the ferry you can sleep a little, as well as have breakfast and drink coffee. After disembarking from the ship, we drive 26 km for lunch and wine testing in the Marlborough Valley, famous for its sauvignons.
We visit 3-4 wineries recommended to the Paganels. We enjoy aromatic wines and do not forget to buy a few bottles of your favorite wines as souvenirs.
Next, a short drive to the neighboring town of Blenheim. We stop at the supermarket and buy food for breakfast. Check in hotel. Dinner. Rest.
Day 9
26.10.2025
Refreshed, we wake up, have breakfast ourselves, refuel the cars, and give a short briefing on the route. We place points on the maps. Today is a big move. We drive west to Lake Rotoiti, where we can look at live river eels living on the shore of the lake; then along the Bulla River Gorge to the west coast of the South Island, to the roaring Tasman Sea.
Further south to the world famous “Pancake Rocks”. In the Maori language this place is called Punakaiki. Here we will walk for 30-40 minutes. We will stretch our legs.
We will take a dozen more beautiful photos, drink coffee and have a snack at a local cafe.
Another 83 km drive along a very picturesque road to the town of Hokitika. We check into a hotel on the ocean shore. Let's have dinner. After dinner, a 5-minute drive to enjoy an unusual spectacle in the dark. You and I will find ourselves in a gorge where thousands of already familiar fireflies shine in the night.
But they are not located on the ceiling of the cave, but in the open air, on the walls of the gorge covered with mosses and small ferns. It is important to remain quiet and not to scare the fireflies with flashlights. Return to the hotel. Rest.
Total mileage today is 390 km.
Day 10
27.10.2025
We will get enough sleep. We have a leisurely breakfast and drink our coffee. We load our things into the jeeps and drive 35 km to the beautiful Hokitika Gorge, where we will walk for about an hour.
Then we return to Hokitika, refuel the cars and drive 170 km along the West Coast towards the famous New Zealand Southern Alps. We make stops in beautiful places along the route. We need to get to Lake Matheson by sunset, so we're keeping an eye on the timing.
We park our cars at the lake and go on a short trek through a very beautiful evening forest to take such beautiful shots from a special point when the evening sun turns orange the two main peaks of this country: Mount Tasman (3497 meters) and Mount Aoraki (3724 meters). And they, in turn, are reflected on the mirror surface of Lake Matheson.
After sunset we move to FOX GLEICIER. Dinner. After dinner, we go for a walk again in the night forest and look at the mysterious fireflies living very nearby among the fern jungle. Rest. Overnight at a motel. Total mileage 236 km.
Day 11
28.10.2025
Early rise. The morning can be spent on the Ocean shore to see the dawn Southern Alps right from the sea's edge or take a walk again to Lake Matheson. At dawn it can also be incredibly beautiful there.
Or we go to watch the sunrise in a cafe with a view, where you can have a wonderful breakfast and enjoy your morning coffee with a view of the New Zealand Alps. Those who wish (optional and, if the weather permits, which is difficult in these places) can fly around Mount Cook and adjacent peaks by helicopter and, again, if the weather permits, can land on the glacier.
Next, a short trek to the observation deck, where we will admire the breathtaking views of the Southern Alps, forests, glaciers and the highest peak of New Zealand - Mount Cook.
Many glaciers descend from New Zealand's highest mountain, some of the most famous are the Fox and Franz Joseph. They are famous for their unusual location - they begin far in the mountains, and then flow through rain forests and melt almost near the ocean.
We move south along a very beautiful and picturesque road. There are fewer and fewer people, the trees are higher and higher! We stop at the coast to walk along the shore, inhale the smell of the Ocean mixed with the aromas of the New Zealand rain forests.
From the coast we turn into mountainous forested areas, where we stop to walk through the “magical” New Zealand forest and see how dinosaurs saw it. New Zealand nature is completely unique; most of the local plants and animals are not found anywhere else on the planet.
This archipelago separated from the ancient super-continents so long ago and was isolated by the ocean from the rest of the land for so long that evolution here took an independent path. Many of the local plants are very archaic; related species on the continents became extinct many millions of years ago. But tree ferns are the same as in the rest of the sublunary world.
We cross the Southern Alps from west to east, following the bed of the mountain rivers Haast and Makarora. Very beautiful wild places. The forest grows on almost vertical cliffs.
We will stop and walk along the path to one of the waterfalls. The forest here is completely different from that one on the coast. Tree roots do not immediately go deep, but first spread like snakes across the surface.
Just like that, you saw in the movie "The Lord of the Rings"!
In the evening we arrive in the picturesque town of Wanaka. The total mileage for today will be 335 km. Checking into a motel. Dinner. Rest.
Day 12
29.10.2025
This day is dedicated to one of the most famous New Zealand tracks, Roys Peak Track. We wake up, have breakfast, get our boots and trekking poles ready. Transfer from the motel to the starting point of the track is 10 minutes. Climbing to New Zealand's most Instagrammable spot, where we take photos above the mountains and clouds.
The trek will take us approximately 5 - 7 hours. The total mileage of the hike is about 15 km. By lunchtime we go down to the parking lot and return to the town of Wanaka.
We walk around the city a little, drink coffee and have lunch. We take routine photographs of the famous Wanaka Tree.
Then drive 70 km with stops for photos in beautiful places to the adrenaline capital of the world, Queenstown. We check into a hotel for 2 nights. We walk around the evening city and the embankment. Dinner. Rest.
The total mileage by car today is 86 km.
Day 13
30.10.2025
We are all tired and need to rest a little. The past couple of weeks have been extremely eventful for us. Therefore, this day is free for us. You can carry it out based on your own desires and preferences. Queenstown is called the adrenaline capital of the world; bungee jumping, zorbing and much more were invented here.
Queenstown is a popular ski resort in winter (when it's summer in Europe), and at other times
time for trekking and rafting, bungee jumping and hang gliding, racing along seething mountain rivers on high-speed boats; parachute; paraglider; rock climbing and more.
If adrenaline is not your style, then the city will not leave anyone indifferent to a quiet life. Lake Wakatipu, the Botanical Garden, golf, many jewelry and souvenir shops, a cable car to the top of the observation hill, boat trips, horse riding - in a word, there is a choice. Or you can just lie in bed until 12, and then walk around the best restaurants in the city while drinking the famous Marlborough Valley Sauvignon.
However, we recommend doing the following: book breakfast in advance by phone at a restaurant at one of the local wineries (for example, in the ancient town of Arrowtown, which is located 20 km from Queenstown). Then stroll through the streets of Arrowtown, return to Queenstown and there you can ride to your heart’s content on the famous red Jet boats along a mountain river, and for dinner take a cable car up to the observation deck, where you can eat with a view of the evening city.
Rest. We spend the night in the same hotel in the central part of the city.
Day 14
31.10.2025
We have a busy day again and today we will see another iconic place in New Zealand - the legendary Milford Sound or the Vanishing Peaks fjord. This fjord was called by Kipling “the eighth wonder of the world”; in Maori it is called Piopiotahi Bay or “Lonely Blackbird” in our language.
The road is very beautiful. Surrounded by the peaks of the Wonderful Mountain Range, it is called Wonderful.
Its dizzyingly steep slopes bite into the sky with a series of rocky peaks. The road itself is famous for its views and is unofficially called the Avenue of Vanishing Peaks.
To get to Milford we pass through a narrow dark tunnel.
It is cut through an impressive vertical wall below Home Pass; the length of the tunnel is 1270 meters, the height above sea level is 945 meters; there is no lighting or cladding.
Rough stone, complete darkness and water dripping from the walls! In general, horror. It is impossible for oncoming cars to pass each other in the tunnel. And it is not necessary. During this time of waiting at the traffic light before entering the tunnel (15 - 20 minutes), you can see Kea snow mountain parrots.
They are the size of two crows; the plumage is green on top and the wing flaps are bright orange. It has earned the reputation of a very smart and inquisitive animal that can destroy your car in the parking lot while you are walking in the mountains. Likes to rip rubber bands, mirrors, plastic, etc. out of cars. This is the only parrot that lives and breeds at an altitude of 1500 meters above sea level and above.
A non-migratory bird, it moves only at local altitudes to search for food. Young birds are more mobile than adults are. Skillful fliers, noisy, highly visible flocks often circle high above mountain valleys, especially in strong winds before a storm.
Accustomed to humans and extremely inquisitive, birds sometimes cause damage to cars, their awnings and cabins in search of leftover food. Listed in the International Red Book. The number ranges from 5,000 to 15,000 according to various estimates.
The good news is that they can be seen quite easily along this stretch of road to Milford! They love to communicate with people.
We arrive in Milford. We park the cars in a special parking lot, and we ourselves go for a ride on the boat, for which we have already purchased tickets ahead of time.
Cruise on the bay. We will see bottlenose dolphins, fur seals, waterfalls, rocky islands, bird colonies.
If you are very lucky, then penguins too. Along the way, the ship's captain will also try to plunge us into a waterfall falling from the mountains into the waters of the fjord.
Upon return, we get into the jeeps and head back to the town of Te Anau.
If time allows, we stop for several beautiful walks and mini trekking.
By late evening we reach our overnight stay. Dinner. Rest.
The total mileage today is 408 beautiful km.
День 15
01.11.2025
We wake up early. We have breakfast ourselves. We load into the jeeps. Today we travel about 420 km. On the way we will make several stops in different beautiful places. First, we will stop by the AJ Hackett Kawarau Bridge Bungy Center - this is the birthplace of bungee jumping in the world. It was from this bridge in 1988 that this type of extreme entertainment like bungee jumping began its journey around the world.
Next, we will run into one good winery, where we can do a quick test of local products and buy a bottle or two. From there we stop at a wonderful fruit store, where you can try seasonal fruits, and then go for an hour’s walk to the beautiful clay rocks.
After the walk we have a very tasty lunch at a local trout farm. Then we move deeper into the South Island, to the shores of the glacial blue Lake Pukaki along a very beautiful road past mountains and lakes with stops at beautiful viewpoints.
We reach Mount Cook from the other side (we have already explored this peak from Fox Glacier). We park our cars at Hooker Valley track. We put on trekking shoes, take water and cameras and go for a walk along the equipped trail for 3-4 hours towards Mount Cook, which in Maori is called Aoraki, which means, according to one version, “big white cloud”.
In 1851, Captain John Lort Stokes gave the peak its English name in honor of James Cook, who explored the islands of New Zealand in the 70s of the 18th century, sailing around them in ships. However, during this expedition, Cook did not see the mountain, in the name of which his name was subsequently immortalized.
We reach the beautiful glacial lake Hooker. We take another batch of beautiful photos, this time with small icebergs from New Zealand, and then return back to the parking lot.
We watch the sunset at Mount Cook and go to spend the night in the village of Twizel. Relax after a big and eventful day.
Day 16
02.11.2025
We wake up calmly. We have breakfast ourselves. We pack our things into our cars. We stop by for a cup of morning coffee at the Astro Cafe near the local observatory. From here you have a beautiful view of the bright blue Lake Tekapo.
We walk a bit and admire the views of the surrounding mountains. From there we go down to the village of Lake Tekapo and make a stop at the famous Church of the Good Shepherd.
The journey is about 340 km. By lunchtime we arrive in the city of Christchurch. Check in hotel. Rest. Free time in the city.
In the evening, farewell dinner in one of the cozy Christchurch restaurants.
Day 17
03.11.2025
After breakfast we say goodbye to each other and the expedition leaders. Our very large and eventful expedition to amazing New Zealand is over. Tears of parting. Drivers move their cars to a special parking lot. Next, independent transfer to the airport. Flight home.
