JOIN FUN HAPPENINGS TRAVEL GROUP FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE 23-DAY NEW ZEALAND & FIJI TRIP OF A LIFETIME!

Imagine one extraordinary journey through the South Pacific, where the rugged beauty of New Zealand meets the tropical serenity of Fiji in one seamless, perfectly curated adventure. Fun Happenings Travel Group invites you to experience the best of both worlds on an unforgettable combination itinerary designed for travelers who want more than a vacation — they want a journey filled with wonder, variety, comfort, and unforgettable shared experiences!

Your adventure begins with 13 spectacular days exploring the very best of New Zealand’s South and North Islands. Starting in Queenstown and ending in Auckland, this cultural immersive land tour showcases the country’s most iconic landscapes, cultural treasures, and world-famous attractions. From dramatic fjords and soaring alpine scenery to vibrant cities, pristine lakes, rolling countryside, and unforgettable adventure experiences, every day reveals another side of New Zealand’s extraordinary natural beauty and charm. This portion of the journey offers the perfect balance of sightseeing, discovery, and excitement as you travel through one of the most breathtaking destinations in the world.

Then, just when you think the experience couldn’t get any better, your South Pacific escape continues on November 13th with a short and convenient 3-hour flight from Auckland to Nadi, Fiji. Upon arrival, you’ll step into an entirely different world — one of turquoise waters, white-sand beaches, swaying palms, and warm island hospitality.

In Fiji, your luxury Fiji yachting experience begins aboard the private yacht MV Yasawa Princess II chartered exclusively by Fun Happenings Travel Group for the week. Our small group will enjoy 8 days and 7 nights of unforgettable island-hopping through the stunning Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands, some of the most beautiful islands in the world!

We wake up each morning to the beauty of a new island, surrounded by crystal-clear lagoons and some of the most spectacular scenery in the South Pacific. Cruise to secluded beaches, snorkel vibrant coral reefs, enjoy the peaceful rhythm of island life, and savor the exclusivity of a truly intimate yachting experience. This is not a common crowded cruise ship journey, but a curated private voyage designed to feel personal, relaxed, and deeply connected to the natural beauty of Fiji and completely immerses ourselves in the local Fijian culture.

Your 8 day yacht journey concludes with 3 nights and 4 full days at the breathtaking 5-star Paradise Cove private island resort, where you can unwind in luxury and reflect on the incredible experiences of the past three weeks. Whether you choose to relax by the beach, enjoy some of the best snorkeling in the world, or soak in the peaceful surroundings. Our luxury 5-star Paradise Cove private island resort, provides the perfect ending to this remarkable 3 week New Zealand & Fiji Yacht adventure.

This 23 Day New Zealand & Fiji Tour is limited to just 14 guests, as this exclusive combination tour offers a rare opportunity to experience two of the South Pacific’s most extraordinary destinations in one beautifully coordinated itinerary.

This unforgettable journey blends adventure and indulgence with ease, comfort, and exceptional value. Return to Los Angeles on Monday, November 23, 2026 — conveniently 3 days before Thanksgiving — with incredible memories, stunning photos, and the satisfaction of having experienced a true trip of a lifetime.

The combined New Zealand & Fiji Group Air is only $200 additional vs. New Zealand Only Trip Air...so it definitely makes sense to do both the New Zealand and Fiji tours, if you have the time to join this incredible trip!

Our trips often involve advance deposits, international arrangements, and supplier policies that may include cancellation penalties. Additionally, some circumstances are simply beyond anyone’s control—such as weather disruptions, airline delays, illness or injury, government actions, or unforeseen events like natural disasters or acts of war.

For your peace of mind, we strongly encourage you to secure a comprehensive travel insurance policy that includes:

• Trip cancellation and interruption coverage
• Emergency medical and hospitalization coverage
• Emergency medical evacuation and repatriation
• Travel delay coverage
• Baggage loss and delay coverage

Please note that Fun Happenings Travel cannot be held responsible for any losses, costs, or expenses resulting from cancellations, delays, illness, injury, or other unexpected events. By submitting your reservation and deposit, you acknowledge that you understand the importance of travel insurance and accept responsibility for obtaining appropriate coverage.
Choosing not to purchase travel insurance means assuming full responsibility for any potential risks that may arise.
➨ Please email a copy of your travel insurance policy to funhappenings.traveldocs@gmail.com for all traveler(s) joining the trip.
