- Cheryl· May 3rd, 2025Overall the itinerary was excellent, allowing us to experience as much of S Island as possible in our short 5 day trip. All of our guides were wonderful and we enjoyed learning about NZ from them. It was well organized. Our one critique was that we were not clear on what to expect for breakfast opportunities. We didn’t know that “morning tea” would be at a bakehouse with pies which would have been good to know. On day 4 and 5 we didn’t realize we wouldn’t have an opportunity for breakfast stop and didn’t allow time to get food before leaving. So it would be helpful to have more clarity on this in the itinerary.Show more
- JOSEPH· February 28th, 2025We enjoyed our tour. All activities, lodging and transportation were scheduled and very smooth. The "New Zealand" app sent was very helpful laying in detail our itinerary and instructions. Communication to the vendor was easily made using the app.Show more
- William· February 28th, 2025Assumed there would be some type of guide instead of just directions.Show more
