Super chef Gordon Ramsay has touched down on Stewart Island as the latest stop in his whirlwind tour of the country.
And in trademark style he could not resist teasing the fresh-faced pilot he had entrusted to land the "little putt putt" about 30km south of the South Island.
"How old are you now?" Ramsay can be heard asking the pilot on his Instagram story.
"That was a bumpy flight, well done bud."
"It was hardly anything," the captain replied.
The three-star Michelin chef and reality television star's tour of the country is connected to his new National Geographic TV series, Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted, set to air later this year.
While on Stewart Island Ramsay dined at the Church Hill Boutique Lodge & Restaurant where he marvelled at the breakfast on offer, showing it off to the world on Instagram.
"That is an English Breakfast to die for. Damn."
He then shared on Instagram a video overlooking the water in which he once again praised New Zealand's natural beauty.
"Welcome to Stewart Island," Ramsay can be heard saying.
"Look at that. That is a room with a view. Beautiful."
Ramsay has already nipped around Auckland on a Lime e-scooter and dubbed Wanaka stunning on his tour of the country.
While in Wanaka Ramsay had a decadent meal at Kika and was pictured posing with staff members in the kitchen.
