Mount Cook and Lake Tekapo   Mike Jephson's Big Rig New Zealand Trucking Tours

 

See

The beauty and variety of New Zealand's FANTASTIC South Island, one of the most diverse and stunning landscapes in the world.

Travel in the luxurious comfort of a sleeper cab Kenworth truck, with your own private chaffeur, guide, escort; kiwi trucker, artist, poet, Mike Jephson.

Your custom tour will cover scenery and locations of a variety that only New Zealand's South Island can offer: remote deserted beaches, lakes, rivers, glaciers, mountains, fiords, hot springs, National Parks.

 

The tour includes all high-class accommodation, travel, excursions and entrance fees. It does not include meals.

Your guide has over 30years experience of line haul trucking throughout New Zealand, has tramped and climbed throughout most of the National Parks and has a special eye for the off-the-beaten-track places, as well as the well known ones, that make this tour so special.

It is the only truck tour available in New Zealand. It is not a freight one. It is simply a scenic holiday done the best way possible - not a crowded bus; not a cramped car - but in your own roomy luxurious, big truck cabin, simply the best!

You will visit the South Pacific's most English and Scottish cities of Christchurch and Dunedin, the beautiful alpine resort of Queenstown.

You will visit artisans and craft-masters in their far flung studio's, visit galleries and museums that present the fascinating history of the making of this unique South Pacific island nation; townships and villages surviving from a past era that flourished with gold-mining, coalmining, forestry, fishing, hunting and farming.

 

From the rugged mountainous West Coast, to the rolling plains of the East Coast, through the remote lake regions of Nelson Province and Central Otago, to the wild grandeur of Fiordland, you will be treated to unequalled vistas from the height and security that only a line-haul truck cabin can provide.
