This 10 day guided adventure trip has been designed to allow more freedom than the NZ Adrenalin trip. You'll still go to all the same stunning New Zealand adventure locations and all meals, accommodation and guest services will be amazing. The main difference is this trip allows for several free days in the itinerary where you can take it easy (something there isn't much of in the NZ Adrenalin trip!), or you can choose additional adventure activities as you go.
