Interislander crossing between New Zealand's North and South Islands - VEHICLES
On the 3.5-hour journey, you’ll be immersed in the epic scenery of Marlborough Sounds, Cook Strait and Wellington Harbour – book now!
What to expect
Tie your New Zealand tour plans together with the original link between the North and South Islands. Much more than a ferry ride, Interislander is a 3.5-hour mini-cruise packed with scenery.
You’ll see Wellington Harbour, a wilderness of forested hills, rugged coves, and lonely lighthouses. In Cook Strait you get a two-horizon view – where the Tasman Sea meets the Pacific Ocean. And you’ll be mesmerised by Marlborough Sounds, a world of water-filled valleys and towering hills. At all times, keep an eye out for sea birds, dolphins, and all manner of wildlife.
On board there’s every comfort, including a choice of viewing decks, restaurants and a Premium Lounge. Book online today!
