Best of the South!
 Combining the Great West Coast Cycle with the Southern Coast Cycle provides a unique contrast between the rainforests of the West Coast, spectacular Stewart Island and the wildlife and fossilised remnants of the Catlins Coast.
The circuit starts in Christchurch and cycles over Lewis Pass and down the West Coast taking in a first hand experience on the Fox Glacier. Via the Haast Pass it enters Otago province before a two day rest in Queenstown, the "adventures capital of the world". Heading south we divertby ferry for a free day on Stewart Island, before travelling around the base of the South Island and up to Dunedin.
- experience the beautiful outdoor hot pools of Hanmer Springs after your second days riding
- meander over Lewis Pass with its beautiful beech forest borders
- bicycle the stunning coastal road as we travel down the coast to the beautiful Pancake Rocks at Punakaiki
- watch the west coast sunset from your beach front accommodation
- explore the Fox Glacier on foot or by helicopter on your free day
- descend into the headwaters of the mighty Otago valleys from the summit of Haast Pass
- try your hand at bungy jumping, jet boating, rafting or perhaps hunt out your favourite Pinot Noir at Queenstown
- go kayaking or hunt for kiwis on beautiful Stewart Island as part of your overnight stay
- visit NZ’s southern most city before heading back up the eastern coastline via the spectacular Catlins Coast with its exotic wildlife
- bicycle rental included. Use one of our Avanti hybrid cycles or for NZ$30 per day upgrade to a Trek 1.5 road bike
"I have been on cycle tours abroad annually for the past fifteen years - with lots of very vivid memories - but I have to say that my Adventure South tour in New Zealand sets new standards and provides me with a fresh benchmark of what a tour can deliver." – Graham Bretherick, Holmfirth, England.
