Welcome to New Zealand at its Best

Organic Explorer has carved out a name for itself as a comprehensive resource for travellers seeking eco-friendly experiences in New Zealand.

Through its website and travel guides, it has provided travellers with an abundance of information about everything from organic cafe's and eco-lodges to nature tourism and Maori cultural experiences.

But Organic Explorer’s efforts have gone further than just informing travellers about the variety of eco-friendly experiences available in New Zealand. It has also helped raise international awareness of New Zealand as a visitor destination.

Eco-tourism experiences feature on many international visitors’ holiday plans and that will only increase Organic Explorer’s relevance to visitors and local eco-tourism businesses.

Thought I would send an email to thank you and your team for making our group's Saturday visit to the Otago Peninsula such a wonderful experience. I have had many emails from our group who said how much they enjoyed the day and especially the Guides who all contributed so much as well. If you can pass on my thanks and gratitude.

Hi guys!

I really wanted to thank you again for the awesome time I had with you, the albatrosses, the pinguins, the sea lions and the fur seals! :-) I took part in the tour on March, 2nd and I loved all of it: the whole scenary is wonderful and the explanations provided by the guide were fascinating! - I've been travelling for more than a month in New Zealand and this was my best encounter with wildlife! One question to you: Is the little lazy pinguin on the path to the beach finally gone fishing by himself or is it still waiting for his parents to feed him?
