We aim to secure locally owned accommodation that is well located, offers good value for money, and plenty of comfort. To help you find your ideal adventure, each trip is given a Comfort Level rating, which indicates the overall standard of accommodation. For more on our ratings, see our Comfort Level guidelines.



We spend 16 nights in hotels and one night aboard a cruise boat. Accommodation on this trip uses a mixture of characterful motels and welcoming hotels, some of which offer spectacular views.



Tailor your trip: Extend your adventure by securing extra hotel nights before or after the main itinerary. Speak to your sales representative to book.



Private rooms: Like most tour operators, we room solo passengers together. If you’d prefer to have a private room, it’s normally possible to do this for a supplement - this covers all nights apart from the one evening on the Milford Mariner boat. Speak to your sales representative to book.
