ew Zealand is a world unto itself. Isolated from other landmasses by the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean, it's a country of contrasts, with its cosmopolitan cities, untamed wilderness, and stately English gardens. On this spectacular trip, you'll sail aboard the comfortable expedition ship Clipper Odyssey to get an up-close view of New Zealand's craggy coastline and glacial fjords. Nature lovers will be mesmerized by the awesome array of rare native birds and exquisite flora and fauna the island has to offer. Along the way, expert local guides and naturalists will provide special commentary about New Zealand's history, tribal customs, and contemporary issues.
