We take small groups through the Coromandel coastlines and forests on pack-free guided walks, then introduce them to the artisan producers and makers behind this region's flavours. The gin distiller who's been quietly winning awards. The oyster farm at the water's edge. The family who have been making cheese for generations. Boutique lodges reserved exclusively for your group. Exceptional food. And guides who become friends.

A simple concept, but we think it's something quite special.

Our classic multi-day walks

"Hard to put into words - the walks kept excelling themselves each day, and the locations were literally brilliant. Hard to see how this could be bettered."

— GERARD & BARB, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA

PRIVATE & CUSTOM JOURNEYS

Your group. Your pace. Your itinerary.

Whether it's a milestone birthday, a corporate retreat, or simply a group of friends who want the whole experience to themselves — we design private journeys around you. Same extraordinary trails and tables, no shared departures.

WHY WE DO THIS

We believe the best days begin with a trail and end with a table. Not the obvious restaurants or the well-worn routes - the gin distiller tucked behind the hills, the oyster farmer who shucks them fresh at the water's edge, the secret view that only the locals know. We'd love to show you.

"Invigorating hikes, stunning beauty, gourmet food — and guides who feel like lifelong friends. Our second trip with Nature & Nosh. Already planning our third."

— SANDRA & ROB, CANADA
