Discover Abel Tasman, New Zealand's golden jewel, across 5 active days of cycling, kayaking, and walking adventure. This partially guided journey weaves together two of Tasman's most celebrated trails — the sun-drenched Great Taste Trail and the breathtaking Abel Tasman Coastal Track — inviting you to experience this stunning corner of the world from three exhilarating perspectives. Travel light with just a day pack as every detail is thoughtfully handled, leaving you free to glide through crystalline waters, pedal past vine-draped landscapes, and wander hidden coastal coves at your own pace.

Beginning in Nelson, your journey unfolds along Tasman's celebrated Great Taste Trail — a sun-drenched cycling odyssey past golden beaches, boutique breweries, artisan galleries, and vine-draped landscapes. Pedal through the charming coastal villages of Mapua and Motueka, where local flavours and unhurried moments await at every turn. From Kaiteriteri, cruise into the breathtaking wilderness of Abel Tasman National Park, where lush beech forests, secluded golden coves, and the shimmering tidal inlet at Awaroa set the scene for two extraordinary days of guided walking and sea kayaking. Glide past the seal colony at Tonga Island, explore hidden sea arches, and drift through crystalline waters from Torrent Bay to Kaiteriteri before your journey draws to a close with a return to Nelson.

This package includes 4 nights accommodation in lodges on a twin share basis including staying at the only two beachfront lodges within Abel Tasman National Park at the Meadowbank Homestead and Torrent Bay lodge. Specified meals, guides, transport and luggage transfers are included so you can cycle, walk and kayak in the comfort of just a light daypack.

Cycle sun-drenched trails, kayak past seal colonies, and walk hidden coastal coves — this is Abel Tasman experienced three ways, across two of New Zealand's most celebrated tracks. Travel light with just a day pack while every detail is taken care of, so all you have to do is show up and adventure.
