The best conference you’ll attend all year!

Vets on Tour was started in 2005 by Dave Collins, who felt the need to provide vets with a source of quality educational lectures at premier skiing destinations.
Perfect venues to help you learn while you play
Vets On Tour locates the perfect venues for intimate lectures with easy access to skiing, cultural activities and eating establishments, giving veterinarians the opportunity to learn while they play!
We have settled on a wonderful format of a good breakfast at the resort before the morning lecture, followed by a day’s epic skiing, then back for snacks and a bit more learning before sampling the culinary delights of the local area.

Testimonials
"The combination of 20 hours of high quality veterinary education in a relaxed atmosphere, positioned in one of the most scenically beautiful places in the world, socialising with new friends and skiing to any level you are capable of – this has to be on any vet’s bucket list at least once. It was so much fun I don’t want to tell anyone, but that wouldn’t be fair. Thanks Dave – I’ll be back."
Dr Stephen Gibson – Practice Owner
"The “Vets on Tour” conference series that has been held at Lake Wanaka over the last two years has been one of the best continuing education experiences that I have attended. This year’s program which includes Dr Richard Churcher and Dr Cameron Whittaker will be terrific as well. The location is fantastic, the social program is great and the attraction of the skiing, cleverly scheduled around the course itself, is first rate. One not to be missed."
Dr Sam Haynes – Director
