Word Travels

Most people hear about Montago from a friend.

The kind of friend who always seems to find the places you wish you knew about first.

Eventually someone asks:

“Where are you going?”

And they answer:

MONTAGO

A world of difference

Montago is a nine-day curated journey through heartland New Zealand.

A small-group experience exploring Central Otago and beyond. Created for people who believe curiosity doesn’t fade with age.

Centered around pickleball, shared tables, wine tastings, music, conversation, and the kind of places most people never find on their own.

Part private travel experience.

Part social ritual.

Thoughtfully hosted.

Never ordinary.

Curated journeys.
Extraordinary company.

Less aboutticking things off.More abouttaking things in.

THE WOMANBEHIND MONTAGO

Montago was created by Suzanne Andrews — a lifelong connector of people who believes life doesn’t diminish with age; it becomes richer.

The idea was simple: create the kind of journey people talk about long after it ends.
