- AWArlette· February 28th, 2025Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishThe itinerary was top, the driver was top, but the vehicle was a mini bus waas I could not sit normally and comfortably. We were lucky with the group that it was only 9 people. A group of 24 in such a van is really indecent in my opinion. The accommodations were very average. We slept in 1 hostel where it was just dirty. I will not choose this kind of trip again anytime soon.Show moreTrip date: February 2025
- JPJulie· November 21st, 2024Had a brilliant time on the Weka trip. Lots of opportunity to go for walks. Abel Tasmin was brilliant. Fantastic boat trip on Milford Sound. Had some dreadful weather, resulted in road flooding,Katy did an amazing job driving through a major flood and also driving in bad visibility rain conditions. Nothing was too much for Katie always smiling and sorting us out and made sure we were well stocked with provisions.. big thanks, JoolsShow moreStray Travel commented on this reviewHi Jools, Thank you for your fantastic review.

Asked on January 9th, 2025I would like to know if you can give any information about the group of this trip on this departure date. I'm a sporty 53 old lady and I'm a bit concerned there will be only young backpacking adults. Could you share any information or what is your experience?
- Stray TravelOperator•Written January 2025
At this stage, there are currently 6 people confirmed on this date. We have a big trend in last minute bookings at the moment (majority of our bookings are coming through 2 weeks before the departure) so its very likley this will increase. In terms of ages, this is not something we collect as a required field when we take bookings, so I'm not sure of all the ages on the tour right now! I can see someone in their 30's and someone in their 40's however. On our tours, we operate more on a mind set rather than age range, therefore if you're looking for an adventure through out New Zealand with a focus on getting off the beaten track, staying in some cool hostels and experiencing some fun adventure activities then you'd fit right in!

Asked on March 2nd, 2022Are you taking bookings that far in advance. Can you advise trekking distance per day
- Stray TravelOperator•Written March 2022
We won't be operating our Weka tour next Feb/March, however we do have some other tours you might like including our Kaka tour which almost exactly the same as the Weka. These tours aren't trekking tours though, we'll make some stops for optional walks but nothing is mandatory.
