Experience Chatham Island Life

This website is proudly presented by Travel With Lesley Whyte, created to showcase our curated tours to the Chatham and Pitt Islands.

Recognised as one of Australasia’s leading boutique tour operators, and proudly one of the largest operators to the Chatham Islands, we specialise in delivering immersive, small-group journeys to this remarkable and remote destination.

Our tours are designed to connect you deeply with Rēkohu — from meaningful encounters with local islanders and insights into everyday island life, to tasting the freshest local produce and exploring beautifully rugged, windswept landscapes. Every experience is thoughtfully curated to reflect the true spirit of the islands.

Through long-standing relationships and trusted local partnerships, we offer authentic and exclusive experiences not available through any other operator — opening doors to places, people and moments few travellers ever encounter. The result is more than a journey — it’s a collection of genuine memories, lasting connections and stories that are uniquely yours.
