Introduction
Indigenous Trails has a proven track record of providing quality and affordable Cruise Ship shore excursions of distinction in multiple Port locations around Aotearoa, New Zealand. We proudly introduce to our Visitors - 'Manuhiri Tuarangi' a 'brief snap-shot' of genuine 'Manaakitanga - Hospitality' for the time they are in Port, whilst understanding the importance of creating a more intimate and personalised environment.
Indigenous Trails gives visitors the oppurtunity to experience attractions and activities that are 'off-the-beaten-track' and away from the 'hoards' of Tourists on more conventional Crusie Ship itineraries. By constructing its own programmes and shore excursion schedules, this allows Indigenous Trails to provide exposure to other Indigenous operatives outside of mainstream tourism, thus providing satisfied enjoyment to its clientele through Cultural understanding, participation and interaction, hence creating a 'meaningful' and 'purposeful' shore excursion of distinction. |
