Hidden away in a quiet corner of Golden Bay is one of our favourites, Kiwi Spirit Distillery. Imagine yourself seated at a weathered table, under the cover of twisted vines, tasting world class spirits prepared by a very knowledgeable and charming host, elevating your experience to a defining moment of your trip. We create opportunities in your travel for unscripted moments - and memories to dine on for the rest of your life. We were lucky enough to experience Jeremy's charm and knowledge during our Christmas celebration and the surroundings, tasting and expertise did not disappoint.

At Latitude South, we have strong connections to family. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it is when we spend time with family that we find solace, warmth, and a sense of belonging. These moments of togetherness become enduring threads that weave the fabric of our lives.

There is truly nothing that delights us more than seeing the beaming smiles of our clients while they are creating memories of a lifetime!

After spending the night aboard a luxury vessel nestled in the Milford Sound, our delightful guests boarded a helicopter for their transfer back to Queenstown to view the grandeur of Fiordland from the sky - a true icing-on-the-cake experience.

We find joy in being the architects of indelible memories.

Our relationship with Mother Earth is a profound and beautiful one. As we go about our days, it is essential to remember that the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat all originate from Her bountiful embrace. We are not just observers but active participants in this delicate dance of life. By recognising this connection, we also acknowledge our responsibility to protect it.

“Ko ahau te taiao, ko te taiao, ko ahau” I am the environment and the environment is me”.

Leave the outside world far behind as you glide serenely into the untouched and wild grandeur of Doubtful Sound. It’s easy to transport yourself to an era when this ancient realm came into existence—a Māori legend unfolds, telling of the deity Tu-Te-Raki-Whanoa, who, wielding his mystical adze, meticulously carved this fjord from the sacred land of Te Wai Pounamu, to provide sanctuary for his people, from the tempestuous seas nearby. We collaborate with guides who lead you on your voyage aboard a meticulously appointed vessel, where every moment will leave you in awe of the ambiance, the atmosphere, and the unspoiled rugged magnificence of the Sound during the daylight hours. In the evening, let the very special calls of the kiwi serenade you, and turn your gaze skyward to witness the celestial spectacle of the Southern Hemisphere's star-studded heavens.

Our Story

Our mission at Latitude South is to ensure you’re never a ‘tourist’, rather a cherished visitor, welcomed to Australia and New Zealand in a warm, expressive way.

It’s the people; our accommodation hosts, our private guides and the custodians of the special areas and aspects of Australia and New Zealand you will experience who are the gateway to truly experiencing these magnificent countries near the end of the earth. Ever since Latitude South was founded in 2001, we have built relationships with some truly special people who stand behind Latitude South in sharing their expertise and exchanging intimate local knowledge with each of our clients. Our contacts and connections spread far and wide across Australia and New Zealand and we pride ourselves on going the extra mile (and then some) along with knowing the rarely seen gems in satisfying each of our client’s unique set of goals.

In fulfilling each vacation enquiry we receive, we work meticulously to curate arrangements that are securely tailored to fit, ensuring a comfortable, beautifully presented and superbly functional journey.
