Travel with Little Big Adventures
Russian-speaking tours in New Zealand.
Explore New Zealand with a Russian-speaking guide, in a small group with time to enjoy the places along the way. Little Big Adventures is based in Wellington and creates journeys across the North and South Islands.
Our scheduled departures bring travellers together around a carefully planned route. You can join without putting together a group of your own. We also arrange private guided journeys, with English-language arrangements available on request.
