I would the trip of my life ! It was so amazing, I had the best trip manger , and I have made friends forever
The trip was amazing! Being able to meet new people and explore a new country whilst solo traveling was great. The trip allowed me to get out of my comfort zone and appreciate and understand the NZ culture more. Definitely recommend.
Had an absolutely brilliant time on my Contiki with Brit and Chris. The trip was well managed, and I could not be happier with the activities and how they were explained. The other travellers were some of the friendliest and nicest people as well.
It was such an amazing experience, everyone I met was unreal, incredible people and places!! Would 100% recommend to anyone!
Awesome experience. Some of the activities are expensive but worth it. Everything was set up so well, trip manager Ashley was amazing, and bus driver Chris did a great job
