Travel story
A special journey through the highlights of New Zealand's South Island, accompanied by the beautiful colors unique to autumn.
You can efficiently enjoy representative scenic spots of the South Island, such as the majestic fjords of Milford Sound and the star-filled sky over Lake Tekapo.

Because this is a season with relatively fewer tourists, you can appreciate the great outdoors in quiet and at a relaxed pace.
Furthermore, there are price advantages typical of the shoulder season, allowing a trip that offers a good balance of comfort and cost.

This South Island tour comes with Japanese support, so you can enjoy it at your own pace with peace of mind.
Signature points
A special, season-limited spectacle to meet the “golden autumn”
This period, corresponding to autumn in the Southern Hemisphere, is the best season when both towns and nature are dyed golden.
The lakesides and street trees are beautifully colored, and the contrast with mountains beginning to wear snow is exceptional.
You can enjoy quiet, profound scenic views that you won't encounter in other seasons.
Fjords and starry skies: condensed, signature South Island experiences
A magnificent cruise on Milford Sound and the star-filled sky over Lake Tekapo.
This luxurious itinerary lets you experience New Zealand’s two representative scenic wonders at once.
Unforgettable moments await, wrapped in the scale and silence of nature.
A “hidden best season” combining price, comfort, and crowd avoidance
May is a shoulder season, so travel can be realized at a relatively reasonable price.
Tourists are fewer and popular spots can be enjoyed at a leisurely pace.
It’s a little-known optimal timing that offers an excellent balance of cost and experiential value.
