Australians are an adventurous sort. Nestled into our little corner of the globe, we venture far and wide ‘cross land, sea and sky to countries and continents the world over. But it can be easy, in our intrepid nature, to forget the potential in our own neighbourhood.
New Zealand is just a short flight “across the pond” but within it you will find a profound cultural depth, spectacular landscapes and an endless array of sights, activities and adventures to be had.
With so much to see and do, why not take the hassle out of navigating this incredible country by using the experts?
With nearly 60 years of touring experience, Kirra Coach Tours is proudly Kiwi owned and operated. Over the decades, they have cultivated deep-rooted relationships with local suppliers, businesses, and communities across both the North and South Islands – resulting in a more meaningful and authentic experience for travellers.
Kirra’s tours are capped at just 24 guests, ensuring a relaxed, intimate experience. However, guests travel in a larger, full-sized coach – meaning nearly everyone gets the luxury of a window seat or the bonus of a spare seat beside them. It’s a small detail that delivers big when it comes to comfort and space on long scenic drives.
Thanks to their local partnerships, Kirra’s itineraries go beyond the usual sightseeing checklist. While still hitting the major drawcards, they seamlessly incorporate lesser-known gems and immersive encounters that reveal New Zealand’s heart and soul- such as a special visit to Spellbound Cave and early visits to Doubtful Sound.
Guests stay in quality 4 to 5-star accommodations, with key experiences and activities included throughout the journey. All tours are led by experienced guides who are passionate storytellers and local experts, adding context and connection to every place visited.
Travellers can experience the full New Zealand journey across both islands in under three weeks, or choose to explore just the North Island or South Island with dedicated, shorter itineraries.
2025-2026 Season Offers
For a limited time, exclusive specials are available across all Kirra departures from September 2025 to April 2026. These are on sale until 11 July, making now the ideal time to lock in a seat for the next adventure.
