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.

An amazing and unforgettable experience exploring the breathtaking South Island with an awesome group of people. This was my first Contiki and international solo travel and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Contiki and our trip manager Brad made planning and organising the trip effortless and the locations, activities and transport were sensational. I cannot recommend this trip enough!

This tour is a great way to see the major sights in New Zealand. Many optional activities offer for an additional price which you can choose to participate in or not. Our tour guide George, made the trip very memorable. He loves his country and his enthusiasm was contagious. Our group started as strangers and left as friends.

Good trip, wonderful scenary. Really good infrastructure for walking in the trails. It should have been a walk at the Fiordland National Park (close to Wilford Sound) We just did a really small portion towards Marian Lake. It would have been different from the other trails that we did
