Calder and Lawson Tours was originally established to provide New Zealanders with specialist tours of the world.

As a branch of Calder and Lawson House of Travel, one of New Zealand's most respected travel companies, Calder and Lawson Tours have experienced great success. As a result of this, and our partnering with successful shareholder and associate inbound operator Agri-Travel International, we now offer specialist tours for overseas visitors looking to experience our beautiful country.

New Zealand - the Culture, the Landscape

Located in the South Pacific, New Zealand is a safe and unspoilt country. Enjoying a stable democratic Westminster styled society, New Zealand blends the traditional lifestyle initiated by the European settlers of two decades ago, with that of the Native Maori and the many neighbouring Pacific Island nations.

New Zealand has a truly unique culture with only 4 million people enjoying a land the size of the British Isles. With inspiring mountain peaks, contrasted by stunning, sparsely populated beaches it is little wonder New Zealand enjoyed 'Destination of the Year' for two years running from readers of the "Lonely Planet".

The Oscar winning trilogy "Lord of the Rings" was filmed in New Zealand and is a grand illustration of the diverse scenery of this country. There is certainly no shortage of things to see, do and marvel at in New Zealand.

Agricultural and Horticultural Tours

Associate company Agri-Travel offers a diverse range of specialised Agriculture Tours throughout New Zealand. The shared success of both Agri-Travel and Calder and Lawson has enabled Calder and Lawson Tours to be competitive and knowledgeable in all aspects of travel to New Zealand.
