Honest insights from past guests on our Beach New Zealand tours
Excellent tour, guide and coach driver. Tour guide had to revise trip while on the trip due to crazy weather. We still had a great tour and a good time.
The trip was amazing. I wis I continued on and did more of the trip with all the great people I met. The trip manager worked hard to make sure everyone got to do all the activities they wanted and our coach driver ensured we made it safely to every location. The highlights were definitely all the fun activities and making so many new friends.
The itinerary truly covered a wide range of sites and experiences. The guides were knowledgeable, interesting, friendly and caring. The hotels were all 4 and 5 star properties.
There was not much to see or do in Melbourne. Cairns was amazing, I would have liked another day there, it has so much to see and do. Queenstown was fantastic as well as Rotorua!
I totally enjoyed my trip around NZ with AAT Kings! The scenery was majestic, the commentary, friendliness and proficiency of Isobel Needham was awesome, Dave’s driving was excellent and the accomodation & food were terrific. The variety of options for additional activities increased our enjoyment. Thank you AAT Kings!
The scenery and the included and optional activities were overwhelmingly great. The itinerary packs in a lot with sufficient time to enjoy it all. This was my first ever coach tour and I’m traditionally a poor passenger in any vehicle but the coach was very comfortable and I had no trouble. The tour guide was priceless with her informative and entertaining commentary. The accommodation and meals were all excellent choices. Taking it from North to South was the right choice because that left the best to last. As a bonus, take the city tram hop on/off tour when in Christchurch, it’s well worthwhile.
