Thoughtfully designed journeys shaped by a love for Aotearoa

About Us Hero Image

We awaken a lifelong love for New Zealand through journeys that feel personal, effortless and truly memorable.

Every great journey begins with a spark. For founder Rob Young, it was during a life-changing trip to New Zealand that he became captivated by the country’s untouched landscapes and genuine hospitality. In 2000, Rob made the move from the UK to make New Zealand home.

Driven to share the magic he’d found, Rob established Exclusive Travel Group - quickly becoming known for its bespoke travel experiences for discerning guests across New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific.

Now with Touring New Zealand, Rob and his team bring that same energy and care to a broader audience - creating journeys that are intimate, authentic, and deeply connected to the people and places that are unmistakably New Zealand.

What makes New Zealand so special lies beyond its famous landscapes. It’s found in its stories, living cultures and the quiet moments shared with the people who matter most.
