I did the 17 day New Zealand adventure it was my first group tour and my leader Danny was absolutely incredible and made us all feel at home and brought us all together and made the experience so much more memorable.
Lauren was such a lovely group leader and made my trip to New Zealand so special! The tour was incredible, we saw so many beautiful places and Lauren made the whole trip run so smoothly and was really informative throughout! ☺️
Had a great time in the north and South Islands of New Zealand. The whole trip was very well organised, made some amazing memories and the country was so beautiful and definitely did not disappoint. Everything ran smoothly with Lauren as our group leader, who always made sure we had the best time. Thanks Lauren, you’re a legend!! ᵕ̈
Just Come home from the North and South New Zealand tour with Lauren. What an adventure from white water rafting to late night chats there was never a dull moment. When you spend weeks with strangers they really become such good friends with amazing memories. Lauren was the best tour leader ever !!! The Trip wouldn’t be the same without her, when I lost something valuable to me during the trip she went above and beyond to help me find it Thank you Lauren (Best Tour Leader) 🫶
Went on the intro tour to New Zealand South Islands. Was an absolute amazing experience and covered a lot of the beautiful spots on the island. Have to give a special thanks to the group leader Lauren Ryan, who really made it what it was. She went above and beyond. Any question, help or advice needed she would go out of her way for you. Always energetic and wants everyone to have the best time. She made sure everyone felt part of the group and more so a short term family.
Amazing company that got me introduced to Japan and in the future new Zealand! Takes the stress away from travelling to new destinations with amazing guides! Special shout out to Dan, hes a master at his craft, he could have done half of what he did and still be a 5 out 5 guide, hes the literal definition of going above and beyond! If he ran a tour in the place I hate the most in the world Id still do it as I know Id have an amazing time!

Ive just finished my NZ North and South tour, Ive had the best time and Ive had the best experience I could of had. Danny was an amazing leader and I would fully recommend booking through intro travel
I did 17 Days in New Zealand (North and South Islands) They took us around the cultural sites too and fed us plenty of local knowledge during the long bus ride. Everything was well organised Team leader had lots of recommendations in each place we stayed Also had a few chill days to catch up with home or laundry I personally struggle with mingling in general but my team leader made extra effort to encourage us to mix with other people in our groups. 10/10 would travel with Intro Travel
The 17 day New Zealand intro tour is brilliant. The activities were all well thought out and it touches on the majority of the highlights of NZ. Danny (group leader) is a legend!
