Customer Reviews
A great trip!
This is a lovely, varied trip for someone who wants to see as much of this wonderful country as possible in a short time - with someone else doing the many hours of driving required, and with someone who has invaluable local knowledge.
Super Holiday
Trails of New Zealand is an excellent memorable trip. Wonderful scenery, great walks, very comfortable accommodation. Well-thought itinerary, good mix of driving interspersed with walks and other activities.

Great insight into an amazing country . We covered so much and saw some amazing sights. Some of the days were understandably quite long but unfortunately the transport ( i.e. the minibus) was not the most comfortable, my husband at 6foot 1inch was unable to fit his knees in between the seats and had to travel with his legs in the isle ( not the most comfortable of positions) also the air conditioning was not very efficient.
