How we travel
Groups of 6 at most.
Just a few people, so the trip fits you, not the other way round.
Almost everything, just for you.
Hobbiton, sailing on Auckland’s harbour, a full day with a Māori guide in Rotorua: most experiences are private to the group.
The two of us, always.
Moni and Sylvie are with you from airport pick-up to the final farewell.
One language per group.
Every group travels in English or in Spanish, so nothing gets lost in translation.
All sorted.
Hotels, transfers, meals and activities. All you have to do is enjoy it.
Two journeys, one way of travelling
Journeys for blind and low-vision travellers
Not all vision needs eyes. A journey designed for blind and low-vision travellers, where every place is felt through your hands, your ears and your skin, and the adventure goes as far as you want it to.
What they say
How our travellers live it
I arrived afraid of being a burden and left feeling like just another traveller. Mónica and Sylvie describe every place with such care and detail that you see the landscape without seeing it. On the paragliding day I cried with joy.
Because of our blindness, we don't always get to live it this way: people who don't set limits for you, but instead tell you, 'You're the one who sets the pace of this trip.' It was wonderful — they didn't just go along with our crazy ideas, they encouraged them... We're already thinking about when we'll go back to New Zealand to do it all again.

Our story
Almost 8 years ago we arrived in New Zealand with a backpack full of dreams and uncertainty. Today we’re Sylvie and Moni, the Watchout guides — because no one better than us to tell, beyond the visual, the magic of this country we call home.
