Join Contiki’s Action Packed Ski Adventure

FRIDAY, 27 APRIL 2007

CLEO and RALPH Magazines are calling young and adventurous Aussie travellers to join them for a special Contiki tour to carve up the New Zealand ski slopes on July 24-29, 2007.

Leading youth brand Contiki has joined forces with CLEO and RALPH magazines to offer an exclusive six-day New Zealand ski holiday. This trip is all about making new friends and having loads of fun so grab your mates and make sure you are one of the lucky ones to experience this exclusive South Island adventure. Places are limited and they are filling up fast.

This amazing trip will travel from Christchurch to Queenstown, the adventure capital of New Zealand where travellers can check out the AJ Hackett bungy bridge and test their nerves, wander the township of Queenstown from shops to cozy bars and pubs and enjoy the amazing range of activitie available.

Then, enjoy three full days skiing or snowboarding at a choice of four great mountains around Queenstown including Cardrona, The Remarkables, Coronet Peak and Treble Cone. Of course, if skiing is not your thing, or you just want a change, Contiki will exchange the included lift tickets for other non-ski adventures in the area like white water rafting, jet boating or bungy jumping.

The final day on the slopes is a big one with a special Contiki Ski Race Day at Coronet Peak! Travellers will have a ball and show up their mates with races and fun events for the whole group, whether they are skiers, snowboarders, beginners or advanced. Of course, the day will finish up with at an ‘official’ awards ceremony dinner.

Then it’s off north, along the west coast through the Westland National Park, with amazing views of the glaciers and rainforests, to the stunning Franz Josef Glacier for a night. There’s the choice of some excellent Optional Activities including a glacier hike or heli-hiking, both seriously amazing experiences, and Contiki has negotiated mates-rates. On the last day the trip heads back to Christchurch stopping off on the way at the coastal town of Hokitika and later, Arthurs Pass.
