Canterbury Trails Day Trip To Kaikoura Pass New Zealand

A guided day trip to Kaikoura with Canterbury Trails provides the opportunity to travel to this unique coastal region. Your knowledgeable guide will ensure that you make the most of both your journey and your destination.

The coastal town of Kaikoura enjoys a spectacular position between the Pacific Ocean and the dramatic peaks of the Kaikoura Ranges. Many visitors are attracted by the opportunity to take a Whale Watch Tour. For an airborne view of the Whales you can take a 'Wings over Whales' flight.
Choose one of these options to include in your guided day trip to Kaikoura.

Whales, other sea mammals and pelagic birds are abundant and attracted to this area by food laden currents that wash through deep ocean trenches located not far from the coastline.
