NEW ZEALAND IN ITALIAN + NEW CALEDONIA

Ideal itinerary for time poor travelers wanting to experience New Zealand in an Italian speaking, well planned guided tour. Afterwards we suggest adding a few days seaside extension in New Caledonia, easily reachable by direct flight from Auckland.
In New Zealand visit both North & South Island touching the best locations these islands have to offer. In New Caledonia explore the capital Noumea and 4 of the country’s islands – Mare’, Lifou, Ouvea’ & Isle of Pines – allowing you to enjoy these unique earthly paradises.
