    Excellent scenery Well planned on paper but driver/guide enjoyed doing his own thing eg Mount Victoria omitted and other attractions missed Lovely fellow travellers Accommodation - mixed standard - Wanaka too far away, some rooms jaded didn’t enjoy several in room breakfasts Disappointed in standard of elderly minibus - gearbox trouble Poor advice by tour guide about local restaurants. All meals hurried. Breakfast not ordered at Queenstown. Incorrect names on Bus tickets for Milton Sound day trip - almost missed going !!
