NIUE MULTI ACTIVITY TRIP- DEPARTS 24th July 2009 

Niue is just 3 hours north east of New Zealand but a world apart. A place where Nature hasn’t been broken. Where it’s normal for strangers to wave at each other, all the time. Where the sweet sound of laughter mixes with the drumming ocean waves. Where everything stops at 4 PM and no-one understands the meaning of the words ‘hurry’ and ‘rush’, so it pays not to use them! This trip is especially designed for those seeking an interesting and active experience in Polynesia, the way it used to be. It’s not a tourist resort, has little tourism infrastructure and isn’t a week just lying on a beach…… We will include a wide variety of activities such as rainforest walks, snorkeling trips, cave tours, reef walks, biking, a circle island tour and weaving workshop. Plus plenty of free time to just kick back and do your own thing.

Niue is special, you will be treated like an honoured guest rather than a tourist. Tour participants will need to have an open mind and go with the flow if schedules and activities change during the trip. Silvana Gottini from Southern Exposure Tours will be your tour leader to smooth out the bumps and organize the itinerary for you. However the spirit of an exploratory adventure on Niue is to relax and welcome whatever happens next.

Most meals, activities, transport and bike hire will be included as per trip details below. We will be staying in twin share holiday home accommodation for the entire week so you only unpack once. The best way to describe the accommodation is that of a clean comfortable kiwi beach batch with 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. The cutlery may not match but you’ll be too relaxed to notice!
