Route

Day	Travel station	Arrival	Departure	Info
1.	Timaru (New Zealand) Transfer from Christchurch to Timaru

2.	Oban, Halfmoon Bay (New Zealand)

3.	Milford Sound (New Zealand)

4.	Doubtful Sound (New Zealand)
	The wide, remote area of the untouched "Doubtful Sound" fjord is sure to leave visitors lost for words. Due to heavy rainfall, there is a layer of fresh water measuring several metres on top of the seawater, which absorbs light through the leached remains of plants. This is why coral, usually found only at lower depths, grows here just a few metres below the surface. The fjord is also home to dolphins, penguins and brown fur seals.
	Dusky Sound (New Zealand)
	"Dusky Sound" is the largest fjord in New Zealand. The sight of this massive fjord apparently also impressed Cook, who returned for several weeks following his discovery in 1770, to further explore the landscape.
5.	At Sea

6.	Akaroa / Christchurch (New Zealand)

7.	Kaikoura (New Zealand)

8.	Kaiteriteri (New Zealand)

12.	Auckland (New Zealand)
	With a population in excess of 1 million, Auckland is the largest city in New Zealand. It lies between the Pacific Ocean and the Tasmanian See. It got its nickname the "City of Sails" on account of the "thousand ships" moored in its harbour. The city spans an 11 km wide sound of volcanic rocks and is a paradise for watersports fans. To the North of Auckland, Leigh Marine Reserve provides plenty of opportunity for every imaginable kind of underwater activity. The main cultural attraction is the Auckland Museum.
