This New Zealand garden tour makes the most of New Plymouth during full rhododendron bloom. Meet private gardeners and wander magnificent Pukeiti and Tupare. Other highlights include Whanganui, Cross Hills garden in the Manawatu and the Chateau Tongariro. This small group tour focuses on showcasing the most beautiful gardens of the North Island.

Enjoy Taranaki's beauty ahead of the festival crowds when the gardens are fresh and the gardeners too! I especially like having the gardeners and the gardens completely to ourselves. And along the way we enjoy the warmth and hospitality of three private farmhouse lunches.”
