Guest reviews from travelers on tours in and around Christchurch
Caroline H. | Traveled in January
Fabulous trip with an excellent guide. Taylor was very knowledgeable and great company to be with in New Zealand. She added extra bits into the itinerary to help us see more of New Zealand. Only minor critique would be to allow more time in the itinerary in Dunedin if possible but that’s only a small thing. Overall the itinerary is good and allows you to see a great deal of the country and to get a really good feel for the place. Would highly recommend.

Aiyana P. | Traveled in December
I liked the group of people, I think they made it 100% worth it. I love the opportunities of activities to do. The only thing I would change is that on the itinerry before you book the trip and get htere they put weight limits on the activites so you are not dissapointed when you find out when you get there there are activiteis you cannnot do.
