Breathe in the Wild Heart of New Zealand

Nature-Led Adventures for Inspired Teams

From alpine peaks to geothermal springs, subtropical islands to stargazing skies, New Zealand is built for real connections, not just meetings. Here’s where nature leads and adventure brings people together, whether you're after a thrill, a slow wander, or a celebration of place.

Queenstown – Big Views, Bold Rewards

Surrounded by the dramatic Remarkables and perched on Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown is where nature turns the dial up.

Start your programme in style with a private helicopter flight and toast to your group’s success with a glass of bubbles on a remote alpine peak before heading back down for a hearty vineyard lunch or lakeside spa session.

If it’s a more hands-on experience you’re after, the Shotover and Kawarau Rivers offer thrilling whitewater rafting and high-speed jet boating - perfect for building camaraderie through adrenaline. Otherwise, why not try the famous Ben Lomond Track and Queenstown Hill Time Walks – both known for their incredible panoramic views.

Finally, nothing caps off a day quite like a good glass of wine. After the action, Queenstown invites you to slow the pace. Central Otago’s renowned Pinot Noir makes an ideal pairing for private vineyard tours or relaxed sunset dinners overlooking the vines -moments that invite connection and conversation.

And throughout it all, sustainability runs deep. Conservation efforts like those led by the Whakatipu Wildlife Trust are helping native species thrive, while groups like Sustainable Queenstown support local initiatives with lasting impact.

Rotorua – Steam, Soul, and Stillness

Dramatic landscapes and deep cultural heritage, Rotorua creates the perfect setting to wind down and enjoy New Zealand’s natural surroundings.

Enjoy a soak at Wai Ariki or Secret Spot, where geothermal waters and forested surrounds invite a deeper breath and a slower pace.

To add a little levity, Rotorua delivers playful thrills too. Try your hand at Zorbing (which involves rolling downhill inside a giant inflatable ball) or race down the luge tracks – both fun, energising options that spark laughter and team connection.

Balance that energy with something more grounded. Visit one of the region’s geothermal parks for a guided tour of bubbling mud pools, steam vents, and erupting geysers. Here, science and Māori legends intertwine, offering a richer understanding of the earth’s power.

You can go deeper still. Organise a visit to a local marae, where a pōwhiri (traditional welcome ceremony) sets the tone for an immersive cultural experience, followed by a hāngī feast cooked using the earth’s natural heat.

And for an added layer of purpose, the National Kiwi Hatchery offers your group a chance to engage with real conservation work - meeting iconic birds and learning about efforts to protect them for future generations.

Auckland – Urban Edge Meets Island Escape

New Zealand’s largest city brings the best of both worlds - modern energy meets natural beauty, often within the same hour. From boardroom to beach, or skyscraper to vineyard, Auckland makes transitions feel seamless.

Challenge your group to an America’s Cup-style sailing regatta on the Waitematā Harbour, where competition and collaboration ride the same wave. Then slow things down with a ferry ride to Waiheke Island, where long lunches and wine tastings at Man O’ War Bay offer a luxurious way to recharge.

Back in the city, the Britomart precinct showcases a forward-thinking blend of architecture, retail, and sustainability. For something more adventurous, a bridge climb over Auckland Harbour offers a fresh perspective - both literally and figuratively.

Christchurch – Southern Soul with Stargazing Skies

In Christchurch, innovation and heritage meet in a city that’s constantly reimagining itself. It’s a gateway to wild landscapes, but it also pulses with creativity, sustainability, and connection.

Begin with a cultural experience on the Ōtākaro Avon River, where a waka tour led by local guides gives insight into the region’s Māori roots. From there, board the iconic TranzAlpine train for a journey across the Southern Alps - ideal for reflection, storytelling, or simply taking in the grandeur.

As the sun sets, head inland for world-class stargazing, where dark skies open to a sea of stars. And looking ahead, the brand-new Christchurch stadium will offer a unique setting for rugby-themed team days, combining sport, strategy, and celebration under one impressive roof.

Fiordland – Fjords, Falls, and Deep Calm

Fiordland offers an overwhelming sense of scale, where towering cliffs, mirrored waters and remote landscapes set a backdrop for true presence and perspective.

Cruise through the serene waters of Milford or Doubtful Sound, or take to a kayak for a more intimate connection with the landscape. The stillness here is powerful, yet the grandeur never stops unfolding.

For the ultimate escape, helicopters can transport your group over glaciers and into remote wilderness lodges, while guided hikes along the Kepler or Milford Tracks let teams experience the terrain underfoot - an immersive and grounding way to connect with the land and each other.

Bay of Islands – Ocean Energy and Coastal Culture

North of Auckland, the Bay of Islands welcomes you with sparkling waters, coastal charm and a laid-back rhythm that invites connection.

Island hop by boat or set sail alongside dolphins, stopping to snorkel or swim in clear blue coves. The Waitangi Treaty Grounds add meaningful history and local storytelling into the mix, enriching the overall experience.

As day turns to evening, take your pick between an intimate beach barbecue or an onboard sunset dinner - both designed to end the day on a high, with shared memories and relaxed conversations.

Wellington – Creative Capital with Waterfront Vibes

Compact, energetic and rich in character, Wellington makes it easy to combine work and play with effortless style. Every street corner offers discovery - from bold street art to perfect flat whites.

Launch your programme with a walking tour that takes in the city’s laneways, design culture, and award-winning coffee scene. Then change perspective with a paddleboarding session around the harbour or a visit to Zealandia, where native wildlife and innovative conservation create a unique team-building opportunity.

Let Nature Set The Pace. Across New Zealand, the land draws people out of routine and into something shared. Whether your group is looking to reset, reconnect, or reward - there’s an experience here that meets the moment.

Breathe in, branch out, and discover something unforgettable – together, here in New Zealand.
