New Zealand Last Minute Deals Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Last Minute Deals New Zealand tours
Georgia | Traveled in August
I did the Contiki Sweet As South tour and it was honestly the trip of a lifetime! My absolute highlights were bungy jumping (such an adrenaline rush!), skiing in the most beautiful mountains, and hiking on a glacier (truly a surreal experience) The group was amazing, we partied every night, and I made so many new friends. (Mostly Australians since the tour seemed to be 90% Aussies). Definitely recommend!
Anonymous | Traveled in August
This trip was one of the best things I've ever done! I got to see and experience so many cool things from the gorgeous scenery to unique wildlife and the incredible maori culture. I git fo step out of my comfort zone and met some of the most wonderful people, (special shout out to our trip manager and driver for being such incredible guides!) At no point was I bored or ready for it to be over. My only regret was not booking one of the longer tours!
Kurt | Traveled in August
Absolutely awesome trip. I was initially reluctant to book a Contiki, wanting to travel by myself. I don't regret it for a second! Trip manager Ashley and bus driver Stretch were fantastic, and the rest of the group added significantly to my experience. Thanks Contiki!

My wife and I have been on several trips with the Trafalgar group (AAT Kings / Insight / Trafalgar). We have not had a bad experience yet. The travel directors were like personal concierges to us. Our travel directors, Tony and Marty, were fantastic people. Funny, professional and helpful. Bus drivers were excellent, optional experiences were great. We look forward to going on future tours with the Trafalgar group.
Lewis B. | Traveled in July

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.
