Step Into the Wild: Guided Walks with Heart & Heritage
Walking Legends is an adventure for people of all ages who like to get out and have fun (and maybe learn something along the way). After all, hiking is cheaper than therapy.
Hike more – worry less
We take care of everything (except the weather)
At Walking Legends, we go out of our way to create a hassle-free New Zealand guided walking holiday, where safety and comfort come first. All you need to do is show up in your boots and a change of clothes and we’ll take care of the rest. Simple.
Outdoor Education at its best
Fortunately, not all classes have four walls.
Every Walking Legends guided hiking tour is the chance to learn about the myths, stories and history of our distinctive land. Along the way we’ll also share our deep knowledge of native flora and fauna so you can tell your tui from your toitoi and your kōkako from your kākāpō.
Small team of many talents
Meet our legendary NZ guides
Chef, entertainer, historian, musician, therapist, planner, sherpa… there’s no end to the list of roles our New Zealand hiking guides play. We’ve gone out of our way to assemble the very best – a small, highly dedicated team of legendary guides, who will ensure your walking holiday is one you won’t soon forget!
Comfort, Kiwi style
Sandwiches as iconic as the walks
For a bit of Kiwi hospitality, look no further than a guided walking tour with Walking Legends. We make your comfort our mission: with accommodation, food, wine, and even some world-famous sandwiches ensuring you travel in style – no matter how far we get into the wops (wilderness).
Bond over a brew
There’s no WiFi in the forest, but you’ll make a better connection.
Walking Legends brings together people from all walks of life, united by a love of great times in the great outdoors. Our small group sizes means you have plenty of opportunity to interact with like-minded hikers and make great companions for the trip… and more often than not, beyond.
Never a dull moment
The most fun you can have walking.
If you like a good laugh as much as a great walk, you’ve come to the right place. As ‘natural-born entertainers’, our guides will ensure there’s never a dull moment during your NZ guided hike. Then, once the sun sets, get set for music, games, good kai (food) and plenty of laughs.
