Welcome to Chatham Island Adventures & Tours
Chatham Island Adventures & Tours, a proud Travel With Lesley Whyte brand, is dedicated to offering authentic, meaningful journeys that honour the spirit, stories, and people of the Chatham Islands.
Each tour is thoughtfully designed in partnership with a passionate group of local residents, ensuring every experience is both genuine and deeply connected to island life.
Whether you’re joining one of our hosted and fully escorted tours or exploring our growing range of adventure tourism options—such as fishing, hunting, shooting, and guided walks—you’ll discover the Chathams in a way that’s personal, enriching, and truly unforgettable.
Many of our tour activities offer exclusive access to people, places, and stories that you won’t find on any standard itinerary or with other tour operators.
Whether you’re joining us for cultural exploration or chasing the thrill of adventure, each activity and every tour reflects the genuine spirit and rugged beauty of the Chatham Islands.
Unlike other Chatham Island tour operators, we warmly welcome solo travellers with no additional charge for your own room for most of our tours. This means you can enjoy the freedom of travelling independently while still sharing the journey with a supportive, like-minded group.
All meals are included, from hearty breakfasts to delicious dinners, often featuring local produce and specialties. Return airfares with Air Chathams are also part of the package.
All you need to do is pack your bag — everything else is taken care of, so you can simply relax and enjoy the journey.
