New Caledonia Self Drive Packages

  • The Northern Province covers a large area of the northern half of La Grande Terre (The Main Island). Unique for its nature and unusual diversity, visitors will enjoy the opportunity to do as little or as much as they like. Meet the locals, go diving, hiking or perhaps explore the open plains of the west coast, or the tropical waterfalls on the east. The best way to do this is to have your own wheels to discover it all at your own pace. Choose from either our 4 or 5 night packages departing from Nouméa.
