About
The South Island expedition showcases New Zealand’s most spectacular seabird and alpine species, featuring world-class pelagic crossings with albatrosses and petrels, alpine encounters with kea, and the rare opportunity to search for the critically endangered black stilt, one of the world’s rarest birds, with only approximately 130 adults remaining. The journey culminates on remote Stewart Island with unforgettable night walks to search for the Southern Brown kiwi and to explore predator-free Ulva Island.
