    Had the best time away! Can’t fault the tour route, the company, or the tour guide! Tommy was amazing- he communicated with us prior to the tour and made us feel so welcome during the 10 days. He was so knowledgable about the country and had some great trips regarding optionals activities and other things to do on the island. My only regret is not booking on to do the South island afterwards. I had the best time and would highly recommend Intro and Tommy to anyone!!!

    I had the most amazing time on my tour of the north island. Our tour leader, Rhys, was incredible. He was really knowledgeable, fun and he made our trip truly unforgettable. We saw some amazing places in the north island. My highlight was the Maori experience as well as the glow worm caves. I would highly recommend the tour. If you’re thinking about booking it, do it!

    Alex was really cool and helpful, was very go with the flow and got everyone to do the activities and add ons they wanted. The hostels were very nice for hostels the one in rotarua was bleh but not the worst I’ve seen. The other two hostels lylo and fins were really perfect with pods and space to be alone and decompress or be social if you’re feeling it. The experiences that were included were worth the cost of the trip and had a good time on the way. The people in the tour group were lovely and made the time even better. Seeing karaoke on a sailboat to high school musical is a memory I won’t soon forget!

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten February 2025

      Unfortunately the hostels we stay at in New Zealand do not accept anyone over the age of 45, so we wouldn't be able to book your father onto a tour there.

    Erika

    Asked on January 3rd, 2025

    Is there an option to upgrade to single room accommodation for an extra fee or is dorm share the only option?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten January 2025

      We can certainly look into the possibility of a private room for you. However we do room you with someone of the same gender (excluding multi-share accommodation) and try our best to room you with someone of a similar age. Also Group Members are in their hotel rooms for a very limited time throughout the trip, as there are activities most days and things planned most evenings.

      Erika

      TravelerWritten January 2025

      Is this a single room upgrade for every night?

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten January 2025

      For a private room it would cost an extra $600 USD and this would be a private room for the entirity of the tour, however just to make you aware some of the accommodations will still have shared bathrooms on the landings instead of ensuites.

      I wanted to visit Thailand or Vietnam in August of 2023. Also, please let me know if you can accommodate a vegan diet on the trip.

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten November 2022

      Yes absolutely we can cater for the vegan diet - we will make your group leader aware before you head out and that way they will be prepared with alternatives.
