As always with Kings the tour director Margate and coach driver Mark both did excellent jobs. The accommodation as always was very good, the food was also very good. I would recommend AAT Kings to anyone wanting a great experience
We were able to see and enjoy a large range of events, sites and experiences, that made this trip one of our most memorable. There were a number of optional experiences which enabled us to access opportunities to engage in our interests.
Both Isobel & Dave were amazing, passionate & informative on all aspects of my 17 day tour.
Expectations met for dining, tour options,
Accommodation, time frames & no request or question was a bother or disregarded.
10/10 on both of these amazing people!!!
I have been on AAPT tours before & will again. Thank you
The tour was precisely organised. Customers comfort being paramount. Our tour leader, Isobel, was a mine of information. She was never ‘in your face’ but there to give facts and history of the lovely islands that are New Zealand. Pete was our driver. He was excellent. The perfect foil for Isobel. Only one trip out in Queenstown we thought was misrepresented. The barbecue at the farm. We were looking forward to the beautiful boat ride across the lake, but not in the company of 280 other people! Had we have known we would not have gone.
Thank you to Pete and Isobel for making it a great trip. My friend recommended your company after her holiday to New Zealand, and I would certainly pass on the recommendation.
Excellent guide and driver, Nathan kept us informed with any points of interest as we travelled around both north and south islands. Stu showed his driving skills so many times in tight spots on the highway as well as some of the hotel locations. This was our first coach trip and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

My wife and I have been on several trips with the Trafalgar group (AAT Kings / Insight / Trafalgar). We have not had a bad experience yet. The travel directors were like personal concierges to us. Our travel directors, Tony and Marty, were fantastic people. Funny, professional and helpful. Bus drivers were excellent, optional experiences were great. We look forward to going on future tours with the Trafalgar group.
The highlights of the Northern Spotlight was the Haigi dinner in Rotorua and Hobbiton optional excursion. We had an exceptional guide who explained NZ north Island well.
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.
Culture and nature unite in this inter-island New Zealand tour. Oh, and there’s a good dose of food and wine on the side to deliver a well-rounded taste of North and South as you tour from Christchurch to Auckland. For those seeking places to visit in New Zealand offering a healthy dose of wide open space, bubbling geysers, gem-like glaciers or windswept coasts this tour has you spoiled for choice. History, sport, architecture or culture buffs won’t miss out. This New Zealand small group tour offers plenty of memory-making adventures.
