Dear Andrea
Thank you so much for leading the South Island trip we have just finished. Thanks to your excellent leadership and detailed organisation everything was so good. As the oldest in the group and the least able walker I did appreciate how you took care of me and made sure I still had a good time.
Please will you pass on my thanks to Steve also. He was very kind to me and took extra care with things like lifting my bag and walking with me at the end of the pack.

A Guided week on Niue, packed to the gunnels with holiday adventures on a bike.
Join us to explore the treasures both on and under the land, on and under the sea. Niue is a rugged Island suited for rugged individuals who enjoy taking things up a level from the ‘relaxed Island holiday’.
Steve Newport & Andrea Livingston (combined visits 10+) host an action packed week of Niue highlights, back stories and hidden treasures. Exploring by bike. Enjoy swimming, snorkelling, eating, trail & rock walks, cave discoveries, big fish, big mammals, land crabs, games and challenges.
We’ll have time for arts, Niue traditions and warm welcoming locals. Swim the gin-clear waters, cycle the 25° breeze, drink the 5° beer, bring home photos fit for National Geographic!
Another WILDSIDE small group adventure with like-minded friends you didn’t know you had.
