- TSTeni· December 29th, 2019When comparing tour companies it can get tricky. Do yourself a favor and book with Adventure Junkie if you are looking for a 10 day trip in the South Island. It may seem pricier than some of the other tours listed in Tour Radar, but this is actually a great value since the price includes not only all the activities, but it also includes transportation, accommodations at comfortable, central and clean locations, breakfast and lunch at the most amazing restaurants with NO set menu which allows everyone to order what they want, but most importantly the best tour guide in all of New Zealand, Russ. Russ works with you to put together an itinerary that works for you, and goes out of his way to take care of you the entire time. I would recommend Adventure Junkies to anyone and I am hopeful that I have the opportunity to cross paths with Russ again on a different Tour.Show more

Traveler•Written August 2023We are a family of four aged, 14,16, 50 and 51. Hope this tour is not too challenging for us. We do love outdoor but don't get much exploring such since we are from Singapore. Will activity like the river rafting require prior experience?
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written August 2023
Our NZ Explorer tour is a really great family adventure, if you love the outdoors then you'll have an incredible time on this trip. There is no prior experience needed for the rafting or canyoning just a reasonable level of fitness and swimming ability

Asked on November 26th, 2022Are the trip dates flexible? We would be arriving in NZ on the 8th?
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written November 2022
I'm afraid we will not be able to change the starting date of the tour I'm afraid and we do not have the resources to open up a separate brand new departure. Is there any chance of you bringing your travel date forward? FYI you would be the first two to book on this trip so we would need another 2 travellers to confirm the trip.

Traveler•Written September 2022Is this trip confirmed? What is the current group composition?
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written September 2022
We are flexible with activities and things can usually be exchanged. For the day with biking, there is an option of going to a vineyard, and drinking wine is not compulsory!
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written September 2022
We are not an insurance company and so naturally you will have to source your own comprehensive travel insurance for your international travel.
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written September 2022
If you would like to have a private room throughout this tour, a local payment of $NZD550 can be paid.
- Adventure JunkiesOperator•Written September 2022
Our NZ Explorer tour scheduled to depart Queenstown on the 12th December 2022 is a fully confirmed trip with 7 other travellers already booked. We take a maximum of 10 travellers so there are currently 3 spaces left.
