Had the most amazing time in New Zealand with our fab leaders Alex and Harvey. I did both North and South Island and loved every second. Everything was so well taken care of from getting picked up at the airport to help with onward travel. The leaders did all the leg work so we could just sit back relax and enjoy our holiday! Have put a deposit down for the South Africa intro trip as I enjoyed this one so much.
