“Great team and friendly service”

“At the end of 2023 I decided to challenge myself to run the London Marathon in 2024. I went through marathon tours as I had heard good things and I liked the fact that I would get to meet likeminded people as part of this experience as this was my first marathon. The tour group was amazing, I felt so supported and was so grateful to Paul and Matt and the other members of the tour who gave me advice and who celebrated with me when I finished. Some of us have gone on to remain friends after the tour and are already talking about our next adventure. On the day of the marathon it was great to be able to go together in a bus to get start line and even though we had to wait in the cold I was happy to be at the start line in plenty of time and not to have to worry about getting there on the tube. The location of the hotel was great for being central to so many things you want to do but also so grateful for how close it was to the finish line. I have never been so happy to see my hotel room as I was that day. The breakfasts were a great way to start the day and to also catch up with the others as to their plans or get advice. The marathon itself is an experience I will never forget, having so many strangers cheer you on and give advice and generally want you to do well is quite hard to explain and not just at the end but through the whole 42.2kms. Getting to run through the streets of London and over Tower Bridge was a surreal experience and one I will never forget. I am not going to lie running the marathon was hard physically and mentally and I hit the wall a few times but looking around at the other competitors and seeing the support they had and my own determination was enough to get me to the finish line. I loved being in London and being so central to everything meant I got to experience all my favourite parts - Buckingham Palace, Harrods, London Eye, Hyde Park and St James Park. The support that the marathon tours team gave me both leading up to the event and after was amazing. Knowing that they were only an email or call away was great. I am already planning on doing New York in 2025 and am planning on booking through Marathon Tours. Thank you for the experience, the memories and the friendships . April 2024 has gone down in my history as one of my most memorable moments and it was because of marathon tours that I was able to do this. Vanessa”

“Richard was a dream to work with! Super easy to deal with right from the start and knew exactly what we were after. His travel experience showed as all the accommodation he booked was super central to all the hotspots. Will definitely be using Richard again”

“I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Eddie Dhiman for his outstanding service and support throughout my immigration journey. With his help, my partnership visa has been approved, along with the visitor visa for my son in New Zealand. From the beginning, he is professional, approachable, and very knowledgeable. Every question I had was answered clearly and patiently, and every step of the process was well guided. Even when we lacked strong documents, He helped us present everything the best way possible. This has been a life-changing moment for our family, and it wouldn’t have been possible without your help. I highly recommend Eddie Dhiman to anyone looking for trustworthy and effective immigration assistance. Thank you so much, and may God bless you always!”

“We had a van for one month and it was amazing! The communication with Mojo was always great and the van was everything we needed. Great place to book your vehicle and start your NZ adventure!”

“Lisa has organised multiple trips for myself and now family and friends also. She listens to what we need and follows through. A wonderful travel agent.”

“My daughter and I recently attended the Girl Powa Adventure Day and had the best day! The weather was perfect and Pirongia Lodge is a stunning location. The activities were so much fun and the time allowed for each was just right. We got to try things we otherwise wouldn't, and I found out that my daughter is amazing at rock climbing! The group sizes were ideal and we appreciated that we were in a group with teens of a similar age. Our group had really bonded by the end of the day. It was so neat to see one of the teens in our group who was afraid of heights overcome her fears. Once she had done the zipline once there was no stopping her! We can't wait for the next event.”

“I have just come home from a great day with Earth Scientist Dr Megan Balks on one of Greta's fabulous tours. We started in Hamilton with a brief explanation of New Zealand geological history, the Waikato Basin, the Waikato River and the impacts of the Taupo 132AD eruptions. We then drove through the Waikato and were shown many examples of evidence of this history, ending in Raglan. Once again, Greta has provided an exceptional day trip with her usual care and attention to detail. Thank you Greta and Megan. Anne D”

“Great service. We are based in Raglan and use them all the time to pick up friends and guests from Auckland airport, because otherwise its a 4 hour round trip for us. They are super friendly and accommodating, couldn't ask for better service. Highly recommend.”

“The only thing bad about Raglan Boat Charters is that eventually it'll end and you'll have to go home - and that will be a sad time. Raglan Boat Charters is a great experience. The staff are amazing, friendly, informative, helpful, will bend over backwards to help you out or get you on a tour. We did the sunset tour on a perfect night and it was a blast. In a truly Kiwi experince, Fish and Chips were delivered before we left - the perfect entree to what was to come. We took a tikitour around the Raglan harbour where the sights were enjoyed and the history of the harbour explained. Birdlife was plentiful, as were the stingray! The Captain gave us a few of his secret fishing spots - but you have to do the tour if you want to find out more about that. As we cruised around, a wicked soundtrack of sing-along party hits played and created a really fun atmosphere. The cruise was more than 90 minutes - incredible value for money and an experience you'll be wanting to repeat quickly! 10 stars.”

“Brilliant 2 hour guided trip out in a 2 seater. Fab guide who gave us a lot of detail about the coastline and the history of the area. Thoroughly recommended.”

“Had a great time! This was a family ride along part of Te Awa Trail during the hol's. Richard was super helpful throughout, from answering questions before we made our booking through to setting us up on our bikes, nothing was too much trouble. My bike was ideal, thank goodness for soft gel seat covers I say. So glad we did this!”

“I recently booked their shuttle from Hamilton to Auckland Airport and had a truly outstanding experience. From the moment of booking to the final drop-off, everything was seamless and professional. The shuttle arrived right on time, and the vehicle was clean, spacious, and comfortable. All my luggage fit in easily, and still plenty of space left. The driver was very friendly and helpful.He drove safely, and I reached the airport with plenty of time before my flight. I felt relaxed the whole way. I have booked them again for my return trip as well, so that I don’t face any last minute trouble. Very easy to book and I got updates about my trip. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I am very happy with the service and I recommend it to anyone who needs a ride to and from the airport.”

“Marie and Roam opened my eyes to India and what an incredible experience it was. A fabulous itinerary gave a really authentic feeling with the local people.”

“Beautiful Bed and Breakfast, amazing hosts Balinda and Peter, that go above and beyond to take care of their guests from private tailored tours to world class Equestrain farms. Can’t say enough positive things! Also, a must see is their families Jack Russell Harry! Make sure and have dinner as well, delicious!”

“Amazing place! The team here is so passionate about protecting NZ’s native wildlife, and the guided walks are first class. A must-visit if you want to see the beauty of our forests and learn how we can help protect them. I will be back in late spring for sure.”

“Good experience - Reception lady was nice and helpful, We did the dairy room, had a great time - good interaction level.”

“I had a complex PR case, as I was not the main applicant who first received residency. Charlotte Summers from Pathways NZ took on my case and managed it with exceptional professionalism and expertise. She provided clear guidance throughout the entire process and addressed all my questions promptly. Thanks to her diligent support, my PR was approved within just two weeks. I am extremely satisfied with her services and highly recommend Charlotte and the Pathways team to anyone seeking reliable and efficient immigration assistance.”

“The staff was very friendly and warm. She is knowledgeable about the vicinity (beyond te aroha) too which is a bonus. She gave us a few maps and we are good to go!”

“I needed a small repair done on my bike and needed it done that afternoon. The mechanic fitted me in and pointed out there were a few other things need to be done to do what I wanted. He did the lot and gave the bike a mini tune all in an hour while I had a coffee in the cafe. Quick, friendly and reasonobly priced. Thanks heaps”

“Great place to get your self dive into astronomy if you’re an astronomy lover around Hamilton New Zealand. Great resources for you to learn astronomy.”

“We are group of 16, 9A and 7C. Emma Rose Trent are the most professional patient fun guides we can ask for! We had absolutely blast!!!!!! The bonfire on the riverside and kayaking along the glow worms were beyond our expectation. Definitely recommend!”

“This is a great nature walk for people of all ages and great for dog owners except those who don't adhere to the rules by letting there dogs of the leash which I saw today while walking my dog it only takes one incident of an attack of any kind and legislation will bank dogs from entering the park there are plenty of signs informing dog owners that dogs must be on a leash at all times while in the park and for those few who ignore this simple rule jeopardize the park for the rest of us dog owners who use the place to exercise our pets thanks lady you know who you are”

“Angela has a friendly engaging manner, is very knowledgeable and quickly determined our style of travel providing great advice. She has been very prompt at responding to emails and putting plans/bookings in place. Highly recommend.”

“A wonderful place to visit!! We couldn't believe that it was free to visit. A lovely place to stay for either a short or long time. As well as seeing the animals there are many places to sit and have a picnic as well as a lovely childrens' play area. Highly recommend.”
