“Amazing absolutely love the wallabiest add on a cheap fun day if you love animals.”

“We haven’t used a travel agent in years, but decided to take the stress out of organising our Aussie holiday, and we’re so glad we did! Steve and Kylie at Helloworld were absolutely amazing. They really listened to what we wanted, offered fantastic options that suited our budget, and explained everything clearly and concisely. Nothing was ever too much trouble. They’ve gone above and beyond our expectations, and we’re so grateful for their support. Looking forward to planning more family adventures with them in the future!”

“Traveling with Hong Gil-dong Tours always brings comfort and happiness. It's the leading Korean travel agency in New Zealand, and I recommend it first to my friends from Korea, anytime, anywhere. Hong Gil-dong Tours is a choice you won't regret. Thank you.”

“Kelly-Ann was bright, bubbly and very efficient. She listened to my needs and acted so the travel suited my circumstances.”

“Just come back from a wonderful trip to Fiji, USA & Canada. Jared gave me plenty of advice and signed me up on the House of Travel App. The Raddison in Fiji was a great choice and started our trip off perfectly , probably should have stayed there longer. Stopped off in San-Francisco before catching the cruise to Alaska from Vancouver. The advice from Jared to use Princess cruises was correct. We had a great time, the ship, entertainment and food was superb. All flights were confirmed and no changes were required”

“Mata is a good organizer and a great maestro. She organized everything well, and we had a good, memorable day! Peter, Audrey (the Maori tour guide), Dallas and all the other staff were friendly and helped everything go smoothly. It's a great company and an amazing tour provider! Thank you, team! :)”

“We had a great time. Mike n Liz were awesome. So kind and caring. I will try n go out again!! Love it! Thank you”

“Awesome place to be and really nice walking track with great views”

“My family of three, which includes a 9 year old, loved this event on vacation!! Two hours was plenty to learn time be safe and try the rapids several times. Options were available for swim levels to drift downstream. Our guide, George, was amazing and persistent with the three children in our raft without being harsh. Video is purchased separately for your experiences. The changing area is large and clean.”

“This is a family friendly farm. We used to take kids here for the family day. It’s also the start for Watercare coastal walkway. There is a barn here plus two car parks, a shelter, toilets, BBQ spots and camping grounds. There are farm animals such as sheep, lamb and horses.”

“It was a nice experience at the Glenbrook Vintage Railway. It was good that we arrived early, around 5:30 pm, because after that there were long queues for tickets, food stalls, and even Santa. Be really prepared for long queues, even the toilets had lines. There were lots of people lining up for food, especially the beef sausage wiener. We brought our own food but still ended up buying some because there were so many food options to choose from. The train and station were beautifully decorated with Christmas lights, both inside and outside the train, which really added to the festive atmosphere. There was also a short festive balloons display. Riding the vintage steam train and smelling the smoke and steam made the experience feel authentic and memorable.”

“Simply spectacular! Clean toilets, lots of drinking water taps all over the walking trails and the playground. No rubbish bins on site, so I guess you gotta take your rubbish back with you. There are designated dog walk paths on leash and marked off leash areas..”

“Excellent hike, bit of a drive to get there but the views are worth it! Some notes - Parking is limited and entrance is free. Toilets by the parking area, but water is untreated. BYO snacks and rehydration. Early mornings are great however, rain and wet grass and several muddy patches will require better hiking equipment, waterproof hiking boots and even hiking gear. Watch out for slippery slopes, muddy paths and cow pies. Livestock roaming between fences and gates, please respect property boundaries, keep gates and fences closed. Farm animals generally ignore you as you pass by, and a few disgruntled cows did reluctantly trod away. Weather permitting, rainy days offer no shelter out on this hike, hot sunny days would be perfect. Not all picnic tables are clean, the ducks do kinda get around... The views are absolutely worth it. Two thumbs up!!”

“It is a botanical jungle within the city which has fauna & flora of most plants. Each one of them has been labelled & grouped in different category, making it a haven for botany students & easy to differentiate for the layman. Must visit while in Auckland.”

“I've already done one, but, knowing my computer skill, it may have gone astray. In my review, I wrote how chuffed we were with every aspect of thet trip, in particular, we especially enjoyed Chrises attention to detail, as well as his enthusiasm and care for everyone on the tour. I wrote, in detail, about our favouritevisits - mine was Rakiura and the albatrosses and Cathy's was Olveston House and the albatrosses. I can't remember exactly what I wrote, but the gist of my review was that - in no small part due to Chrises friendly and skillful direction - we had the best holiday we've ad in years.”

“I had such a good experience with Bea. She was awesome, caring and shared genuine keeness to help me find the best flights to meet my needs of being cost efficient and also to take me to cool possible new destinations, based on the cheaper flight paths. (Turkey) Thanks Bea. Thanks House of Travel Ponsonby”

“Beautiful well maintained Park with a wide variety of birds and their young. Great walks around the park.”

“National museum of New Zealand that hold a big native collection, 3 floors with a lot of history, and for me, the most impressive is the war one, with it's people representing what they were doing in a big scale, that you can view the details of the figures. Worth to take a look and visit it! :)”

“Well worth a visit. Lots of birds, great informative signage, beautiful bush. Good place to visit if you don't have time to do any bush walking - gives you a great taste of it! Also, the Cafe is excellent! Great coffee and really lovely food”

“Wonderful new cafe, lots of animals and variety of landscapes such as streams, waterfalls, hills. Well worth visiting though take care on the narrow road to Staglands.”

“Willowbank Wildlife Reserve is absolutely amazing, a perfect mix of native, farm, and exotic animals. The kiwi enclosure was the highlight for me, peaceful, natural, and the closest I’ve ever been to seeing a kiwi up close! The staff are super friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly care deeply about conservation. The grounds are clean and easy to walk through, with beautiful native bush and photo spots everywhere. Feeding the eels and lemurs was such a fun surprise. Great for all ages, and only a short drive from the city or airport. Definitely one of Christchurch’s must-visit attractions!”

“A stunning day on akaroa harbor. The boat was very comfortable the staff very welcoming. Great commentary on the area and lots of time to watch dolphins. We even got to head out of the harbor to scenery nook as the weather was perfect. Overall an incredible day.”

“She always looks out for me, makes sure I get what I want and makes helpful suggestions. It’s a bit out of my way but I’m not going anywhere else. I truly feel well looked after and know that if any situation arises she’d be there and help me out.”

“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”

“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.”

“Great views of the lake and surrounding views, plenty of picnic places and well marked hiking trails.”

“It was sn overcast day when we stopped in at the falls and we expected it to be quiet. To the contrary the place was bustling with people walking their pooches and tourists snapping photos. The place was well kept and clearly signposted so you couldn't get lost. Amenities were in good shape too surprisingly! If you have some time or a pup to walk or you're looking for that cool photo background, McLarens could be your spot!!!”
