Explore New Zealand With Lloyd Esler!
NEW ZEALAND Expedition

February 21-March 8, 2023

Dear Members and Friends:

I invite you to join this exceptional expedition to explore New Zealand.

We are delighted that one of the top naturalists in New Zealand, Lloyd Esler, will again be our leader on this expedition. Lloyd has explored much of the New Zealand natural world, and is a historical researcher as well. He writes and illustrates popular scientific articles on New Zealand topics, and is an experienced trip leader. Lloyd looks forward to showing you the cultural and natural delights of this fascinating island nation.

From kiwis to kakas, temperate rainforests to glacial valleys, New Zealand possesses a rich heritage. The geologic forces are as dynamic as anywhere on earth, and can be seen in the fascinating geyserfields in Rotorua. We will explore splendid botanic gardens in Auckland, Christchurch, Fisherman's Bay, and Dunedin. Some of the most spectacular scenery in the world is pre served in New Zealand’s national parks, many of which we will visit on this expedition.

I hope you will join our New Zealand Expedition. As space is limited, we encourage you to make reservations right away.

Best regards,
