Description
Unlike other passes that cut straight across the island, the Southern Round Up takes the scenic coastal route from Christchurch. This means you get to experience Kaikoura’s wildlife, wine country, golden beaches, and glacier country before looping back through Wanaka, Queenstown, and Lake Tekapo.
If you’re short on time, this is the perfect way to see the highlights of the South Island. Got extra time? Add the Milford Explorer or Deep South for even more adventure!
