Honest insights from past guests on our Adventure New Zealand tours
Anonymous | Traveled in July
Amazing trip managed, bus driver had such a great attitude and was great when things went wrong. Beautiful tour, so many fun activities to do, and so many lifelong friends made!
Paul | Traveled in March
Great trip start to finish. Explore provided all the information needed before and during the trip. Liked the app Explore provided with the itinerary details and the summary etc. Great trip.
Anonymous | Traveled in March
Overall the trip was fantastic! Each place we visited always had something unique and interesting about it, and having the chance to have a Kiwi tour guide give us a run down on what each place had to offer made it all the better. I'd say my favourite place for views was Kaikoura whilst Queenstown was my close second favourite for the amount of activities and fun nights out to experience!
Seamus | Traveled in February
Brilliant trip! Dawn, our driver and guide was super. She made the trip a really positive, fun and uplifting experience. The itinerary was full on. We saw loads of the popular tourist sites in New Zealand but we also had the opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the country with the daily walks many of which were in less accessible and off beat parts of the country.
Colin | Traveled in February
I thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful holiday in the truly beautiful country of New Zealand. The itinerary was very well designed to take us to most of the country's highlights, and although it was fast paced to include as much as possible it was all definitely worth it. We were lucky with the weather, the accommodation and organisation were excellent throughout All enhanced by having a marvellous group of travelling companions, and a leader who put in a phenomenal performance, always going above and beyond. New Zealand is, of course a very long way, but it is such a fantastic country that I can't recommend it highly enough. You're sure to love it!!
