Our itineraries are bold and colourful, so are our tour guides.

We are passionate about bringing like-minded individuals together to explore this beautiful landscape we call our backyard and are ready to go full steam ahead with our next tour the moment it is safe to do so.
For now, we will continue to bring you stunning photography, travel stories and helpful tips during these unprecedented times.
Our team remains dedicated to helping you, so please pick up the phone or fill out our contact form and we will be in touch. We look forward to you joining us and experiencing New Zealand like never before.

I was just thinking that with more people home, eating, drinking, etc more that it would be a timely reminder to continue to watch our water usage. We need our dam levels to increase and our tanks to fill up. Even though summer is a fair way off, we need to be mindful of the possiblity of another dry summer & be well prepared in advance. Take care all and good luck with your lockdown 'to do' lists.
Due to covid 19 we have had to officially close the gates at Whangarei Quarry Gardens.

Thank you to all of our volunteers who have been working so hard this summer. It has been a really big season, with the drought keeping our gardening team busy watering. Thankfully we have a lake, so no shortage of water. Well now our volunteers, like everyone else, can take time to rest and recover. They have certainly earned it, and I know they will be itching to get back into it now that the rain has come and planting season is upon us.
Please stay safe everyone. We look forward to seeing you back in the Gardens soon.

Officials say Northland's drought is far from over and Whangārei residents could be using next summer's water supply if we have a dry winter. Are you still saving water? Are you finding it easier or harder now we are seeing autumn weather?
