Operated by the appropriately named Fishing in New Zealand company, this trip is a three- or four-night trip that takes participants to some of the best fishing spots on the North Island. The trip begins to the south of Taupo in the Tongariro National Park where the landscape is as enticing as the fishing. Guides take you to a variety of fishing spots in the park over the course of two days--three days if you are staying for an extra night. Guests stay in the Ahuru lodge during their visit, where they are treated to luxurious accommodation complete with king-sized beds and fully equipped pantry. Fly fishing for trout in the Tongariro National Park is an unforgettable experience, however, it does require a level of fitness as you will traversing uneven terrain and wading through rivers as you hike to fishing locations.
