From Dunedin, the tour continues along the breathtaking Catlins Coast, a region renowned for its wild beauty and diverse scenery. Along the way, you’ll visit the Nugget Point Lighthouse, the cascading Purakaunui Falls, and the fossil-rich coastline of Curio Bay before arriving in Invercargill.

The journey then heads north to Te Anau, a peaceful lakeside town and the gateway to Fiordland National Park. After a relaxed morning in Invercargill, you’ll travel through stunning southern landscapes to Te Anau, where you’ll stay overnight in Te Anau.
