This tour involved many great walks to experience the spectacular scenery, flora and fauna of New Zealand. Our minibus was comfortable for travelling in but it was also fun to use various types of water transportation. Our guide, Robbie, did a wonderful job of driving and guiding. He was always energetic, cheerful, patient and attentive to any needs. My fellow travellers were fun and supportive also! A great trip!

A fantastic trip to a beautiful country. Particularly enjoyed the active components (hiking, biking, kayaking) with an up close view of the flora and landscapes. The CEO was knowledgeable, resourceful, and very pleasant. Despite the long bus rides, seeing so much of the country was an advantage. The population was friendly, gracious and adventuresome. Overall expectations were exceeded.

Hi, i have had the most exciting experiences of my life, we have seen and done every thing, accommodation was amazing,ing, we did have one night in a hostel which we all frowned upon but actually it was very clean and was in the town centre of Wanaka and actually turned out really well as we went out to dinner and came back and had a drink in the chill room where everyone came and met and we all chatted all evening which was lovely, our guide Kreig took us to a really lovely place for breakfast the following morning. We had to take a bit of a detour due to a landside which couldn't be helped but our guide more than made up for it making sure we were entertained on the coach doing quizzes with us, he made the trip so exciting for us so I believe we saw more than we would of done had we taken the route we should of taken and explore treated us to dinner to make up for it to. I really do think we had the best guide we could of had ,Kreig became our friend and on the last night we all got quite emotional. His knowledge was phenomenal and was extremely passionate about his country, explained everything in a way we could understand and answered every question we asked, such a lovely man, he made the trip exciting for us and was an excellent driver, anyone that gets Kreig as their guide would be very lucky.
