Chiara S. | Traveled in February
Everything about this trip was amazing, the planning, accommodations, the svenery, the activities including free time are ons and the trip manager and drivers. Everyone on the trip made sure that everyone on the tour was included and was having a good time. I wish I chose a longer tour because 6 days was no where near enough I just wanted more from the moment it ended

This was the best holiday I have ever been on. The group were very considerate of one another with all travellers being solo over Christmas/New Year, our trip manager and driver were terrific and made this such a memorable trip. Every optional extra was worth doing. I did so many extras that often I had too much to pick and not enough time in the day. The sky driving in Franz Josef was breathtaking. Tasman Sea views one side and Glacier views the other side. Make sure you do the helicopter ride as well. Both quad bikes activities were incredible, swimming with dolphins, bungy, canyon swing, canyoning, funyanks etc the list goes on. Just do it all. The views were amazing. I wish we stayed in Wanaka and less in Christchurch and Wellington as they were dead cities over Christmas/New Year

I highly recommend this trip if you are an avid hiker. This country was one of the most beautiful I’ve been to. The guides both on the north and south Island were amazing. The group dynamic was top-notch. I was unsure about this trip, but I’m so glad that I committed and went on it. I would highly recommend this trip to anybody considering it.
Danielle. G | Traveled in February
I had the absolute best time in NZ. This was my first time traveling with Intro. Our group leader, Lauren, was 15/10. She made the trip so enjoyable, informative, and stress free. I can;t wait to go on my next tour in September!
Adam | Traveled in February
I am very pleased with the trip. The program was very interesting and carried out calmly without rushing. Many thanks to the guide/driver (Pelle), who can be an example for others. He even washed the bus windows every day so that the photos would be successful. He was helpful in all situations. Many thanks.

Well organised, fantastic and knowledgeable tour leader and driver. A beautiful country to visit and even on days when the weather wasn’t so great we still had a fun and enjoyable time.
