New Zealand: Sweet As South

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!

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

This was yet another wonderful trip with Explore. Every day was a good day. It included many hours on the road but I don't know if there is any solution to that. Perhaps a three day stay somewhere to break it up? The bus was mostly comfortable and the road are slow but good. Our driver/leader Pelle was great. Although he appeared youngish, he showed skill and maturity in his interactions with us. He drove safely and entertained us with interesting information and facts about New Zealand and the places we would visit. Explore asks a lot of those who have to drive, lead and organize. Our last day was the best. Bad weather had prevented us from visiting Mt. Cook but the sun came out and our leader was able to change things around so we could hike , view the mountains, the lakes and fields of lupin. A dream come true for me!

I traveled to New Zealand during the Fall it did rain on/off and was beautiful, lush green and clear blue skies. It was nice driving in the country and layering is perfect for this time of year. I liked, meet a Farmer, Milford Sound Day (it was a very long day) but worth it, Queenstown had many restaurants to walk too but take a taxi back it is very hilly in this city. Kiwi Park was fun to do and learn about their animals. Māori Village was awesome as well as Waitomo Caves! NZ natives and service staff were very nice and always helpful in all the places we stayed.
