Internship Opportunities
Each year we take a small number of interns for terms of 6 months or longer, and provide them with experience in working with a New Zealand adventure travel company.
For those lucky enough to be involved in the program it's an opportunity to learn a lot about a busy and exciting company, plus combine that experience with the opportunity to travel before or after their internship period.
We currently have vacancies for interns starting from mid to late 2012 and early 2013.
