Story telling on board

Sailing, stories and stunning scenery
A magical combination of story telling and traditional tall ship sailing, served up with hearty traditional fare and convivial company! It’s a unique experience where you will delve deep into the truth of New Zealand’s history in a setting so special, you’ll feel you have been transported back to the times of early explorers.

In partnership with the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, an on-board Historian will explain and show you key locations and events that shaped this nation’s early beginnings.

With only 10 places available and only two voyages per year, one in October and one in April, these special voyages are highly sought after. This voyage is a must for New Zealanders and visitors alike wishing to gain a better understanding of key events that has made this nation what it is today.
