Your gay holiday takes on new dimensions in New Zealand, with a different activity every day: Kayak, hike, snorkel with dolphins, bike, rock climb, raft, pan for gold, rappel through a waterfall, surf down a river. But save time for the wine-tasting.

Take the Alps from Switzerland and the lakes from England, the dolphin-filled waters of Greece and the deep glacier-carved fjords of Norway. Put them all together on a small island -- and you'll be amazed how much room is still left for sheep. That's New Zealand. And there's no better spot for an active, outdoor holiday.

For two unforgettable weeks, we'll become a part of New Zealand's natural wonders as we try out the myriad adventure sports that this friendly country offers.

Holiday Highlights:

  • Splash, leap, and rappel through a deep chasm, in the distinctly Down-Under sport known as canyoning.
  • Hike into the icy world of Fox Glacier.
  • Kayak to the wind-sculpted islands of Abel Tasman Park.
  • Snorkel with dolphins at Kaikoura.
  • Bungee jump from the bridge over Kawarau Gorge, where this sport began.
  • Navigate whitewater rivers, armed only with a paddleboard, flippers, and a dose of adrenaline, in a new sport known as riversurfing.
  • Pick from a long list of other adventures: Whitewater rafting, alpine hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, and trout fishing, just for starters.

 

Past Wild Kiwi travelers say:

"I did things on Wild Kiwi that I never imagined I'd do - such a wonderful assortment of activities at a comfortable pace. I'm ready to do it all over again!" --Harvey Zuckman, Minneapolis, Minn.

"The most outrageous time I've ever had; 20 days felt like 2 months with such a quick pace -- even better, not 1 pound gained with the level of excitement we kept." --Dylan Deardorff, MD, Falls Church, Vir.
