The Scenic Route Arrowtown Historic and Scenic Tour
Overview
What sets ECOTRAILS apart is your slower, more intentional style of touring. Rather than rushing travellers between crowded attractions, we focus on creating relaxed, meaningful experiences through nature, local stories, hidden scenic locations, and genuine connection to the landscape.
Guests travel in a classic 4WD Land Cruiser in small groups, allowing for a more personal and flexible experience with plenty of time for photography, quiet viewpoints, short walks, and spontaneous stops along the way. Your tours blend stunning scenery with local history, ecology, and authentic Central Otago character — from remote canyon roads and historic gold mining towns to boutique wineries, gardens, and artisan producers.
We aim to offer a more grounded and memorable alternative to traditional sightseeing tours, where the journey itself becomes part of the experience.
