Detailed Description

A vacation for two needs to truly be a vacation for two, not a vacation where you are surrounded by crowds or waiting in queues. For romance to thrive, you will need exclusivity and seclusion, and these are things that New Zealand and Australia have in abundance. Handcrafted for couples, this is an intimate, two-week journey to New Zealand and Australia’s most romantic places. Featuring exclusive activities and extravagant setting, it will immerse you in the splendor of Australia and New Zealand while unveiling a dazzling selection of landscapes. These are the two weeks where you can have it all from islands and fjords to beaches and vineyards.

Waiheke Island will ease you into the amorous escape with two days of tropical beach vibes and seductive wine tasting. You will then helicopter to Coromandel, where you will have two days of coastal adventure, including hiking to hidden beaches, creating your own hot spa, and kayaking the beautiful South Pacific. By flying to the South Island on day five, you will snuggle beneath snowy mountains with Queenstown creating a dramatic change in landscape and experience. A sublime overnight cruise on Milford Sound will be followed by a private helicopter ride across Fiordland, where you will touch down to a picnic in a place where other people have no access.

Sydney is a big city that will bring a change from all the wilderness and seclusion, and it is quite an extravagant city. Over two days, you can dive into fine dining, exclusive locations, sunset cocktails, and energetic city vibes. It will be a change of pace that will break up your two weeks and a place for you to discover authenticity on the Australian coast. On day ten, you will return to tranquility with two nights in the Hunter Valley vineyards that will include a magnificent hot air balloon flight with sparkling wine. You will then culminate your romantic vacation in the wildest of wildernesses, where a luxurious camp will ensure that you will be comfortable amid the greatest seclusion that Australia can offer. You will be in the red desert beneath the southern sky, where others do not venture.
