Queenstown Tours and Trips

My trip to NZ was amazing! I was so excited that I was able to see an insnae variety of landscapes, including but not limited to ginormous lakes, mountains, beaches, volcanoes, snow and rolling hills. I met the most amazing people and felt safe and supported the entire time. The trip manager on my trip Meg was amazing and Ollie provided the safest driving I have ever experienced.

My trip of the Highlights of Australia/New Zealand. It was a great trip with great sights and great Trafalgar and AAT Kings representatives who were great help. They helped when issues arose for the trip and the travelers. They all were very friendly and kind.

It was fabulous. It truly showed the best of New Zealand and other hidden gems as well. The accommodations were great. Our tour guide, was marvellous. We weren’t on the bus as much as I expected and that was great. I would highly recommend the tour.

- covered key areas with wonderful hotels - spent majority of time in South Island where much of the natural beauty resides - included brief exposure to Maori culture, a Kiwi Hatchery, and a working farm - often provided free time to explore areas, shop, or dine

This itinerary was busy but completely worth it - it truly hit all the highlights in Australia and New Zealand. I enjoyed every planned activity and we took advantage of many of the optional tours. Some of my favorites were snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, tour and later dinner at the Sydney Opera House, Sydney harbor cruise, Hobbiton, visiting the Kiwi hatchery, and the Be Our Guest experience on the sheep farm. Don’t miss these! The hotels at each location were fantastic - very comfortable and more importantly, well placed for easily walking to sites of interest. Both our guides were fantastic. in Australia was energetic and always entertaining. While more subdued was just as fun and knowledgeable and I appreciated his insights as a Māori. Australia and New Zealand had long been on my bucket list and this tour with Trafalgar exceeded my expectations!

In New Zealand breakfasts were same daily. Milliennium hotel ( fireplace in dining area) was their only heating source and we were sooooo cold. How many can sit close to the fireplace? I spoke firmly with the head person in the dining to please turn up the heat! People were eating breakfast in their coats! Next day we had a warm dining area! A customer had to speak up on this!? Really! Also the maid daily ignored poop in the toilet that stuck to the toilet. I had to call to have someone clean up the toilet! I told the young man to be sure and tell y the maid to do her job or I would call again and he could come back and do her job.
