Travel agency in New Zealand

“Quick response to booking a private tour from one day to the next one. The guide was really kind and the ride was comfortable, once on the spots he gave us enough time without rushing us and even took photos for us. Thank you for a wonderful day at mt Cook ”

“We were part of a small group that wanted to go to the Waipara Wine growing area in Christchurch as we knew that some great wines came from the area. But of course a day out to try a few wines no one wants to drive. So from a recommendation - we used Waipara Wines Tours - simply put money so well spent. Friendly knowledgeable service, comfortable transport our driver was John and I sure his relationship with the range of wineries we went to helped making it value for money. Had a great lunch as well and I even managed to grab a couple of bottles of well priced wine along the way. I will use them again!! Thanks Team!!”

“I found Madison very friendly and helpful. She listened to everything I had to say and was able to give me excatly what I needed and made the booking for the start of our trip. Actually she even helped me with extra information regarding River Cruises and which companies did what. I look forward to making even more bookings with her.”

“Lots of fun there! Almost christmas 14th of December and 15th of December show time you can go to that if you want! 2024”

“Such an informative and interesting walk around the beautiful city of Christchurch. Our guide Sam was very informative and made for an interesting walk. A perfect introduction to the city of Christchurch NZ.”

“I contacted Jolene a few years ago because she was recommended by a friend, she assisted us then with a booking and made it so easy that we emailed to assist us with this trip. she is very helpful and easy to communicate with - we have never met all bookings completed via emails and a couple of phone calls. She always replies quickly and provided a few choices in flight classes and prices as requested which must make more work for her, so very gratefully for this. Only for me to add stopovers, hotels and transfers before finalizing the booking. I have now recommended her to other friends.”

“Revisiting New Zealand after thirty years, I embarked on a journey I'd always cherished with the help of Lim Dong-ik, CEO of Island Travel. From the very first day of our trip to the very last, our trip was enriched by a well-planned itinerary, high-quality accommodations, exquisitely prepared meals, and meticulous attention to detail and hospitality. Furthermore, the insightful information provided at each destination, along with comprehensive explanations of New Zealand's economic situation, history, social changes, and climate, satiated our curiosity and enriched our trip. This was my first package tour, and contrary to my concerns, it was a truly satisfying experience. I highly recommend "Island Travel" to everyone exploring New Zealand's South Island.”

“Thank you for your friendly and welcoming service, a great bunch of people and we all enjoyed our flight along with your knowledge of the Canterbury high country, much appreciated, thanks again.”

“We had a great time on our ride around the mountains. Our guide Heather was fantastic. She could not have done more. The accommodation was good and all our meals were great. The communication from Kathy at Adventure South was excellent. We were kept up to date with all information and required gear etc. very professional company. Thank you for helping us to organise a great holiday.”

“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!”

“A special experience with my husband and best friend. The scenery was out of this world, Don was the best guide and it was a hilarious activity we will never forget!”

“The team at House of Travel are always friendly and helpful. We just had an absolutely fantastic trip to Europe, all plans went well. Thanks again to Hayley at the Tauranga Crossing branch”

“Today we experienced trekking with Huntaway Farms. We had the best days riding with a fantastic guide. The farm was beautiful and trail through the native bush was just amazing. There’s a horse for all abilities and they have lovely natures. Would highly recommend a visit to this place if you’re looking to take your kids or a group of girlfriends for a days trekking.”

“We recently completed the Lake Waikaremoana Discovery Tour. I feel Walking Legends have planned this trip well as we had a variety of very manageable walks in different enviroments/lakes/bush. Our guide Dylan was so well organised, professional, knowledgable, respectful and fun. The food was outstanding and accomodation clean, warm and comfortable. I highly recommend this trip and congratulations Walking Legends for showing off a magnificent part of our Aotearoa.”

“Went out on a charter for my birthday with a few friends and we had a fantastic experience. We caught as much fish as we could take home in just an hour! Alita and Tom surprised us with a cute lil cake and the big lunch they provided was delicious, especially the freshly caught fish that was fried up! After catching as much fish as we wanted, we anchored close to shore off an island, snorkelled, and harvested a few sea urchins to try(with some prompting and direction from Tom). We were also lucky enough to momentarily see dolphins alongside the boat! Overall a fantastic day out on the water with a very friendly crew who were knowledgeable and easy going. Thankyou Tom and Alita!”

“We recently returned from an incredible trip to Europe, all expertly planned by Shelley at House of Travel. Every detail — from flights and accommodation to sightseeing and transfers — was meticulously organised, ensuring our holiday went smoothly and stress-free. Shelley’s experience, professionalism, and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. We felt completely confident knowing everything was taken care of, and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel planner. Highly recommend Shelley for anyone wanting a seamless and memorable travel experience!”

“An interesting and enjoyable way to explore Napier, especially if you have limited time available. We booked our excursion through the ship that we were cruising on, the tour operator picked us up near the ship's gangway, and returned us there with plenty of time to spare before our scheduled sailing time. The tour is operated by a father and son team, who also constructed the "train" which transports it's passengers around the Napier CBD and surrounding areas. The son drives the "locomotive" (a modified agricultural tractor), and provides commentary about the history of Napier, with an emphasis on the 1931 earthquake which largely destroyed the city, and the subsequent rebuilding effort, which resulted in most of the buildings being designed in the Art Deco style. His delivery style includes a great deal of dry humour.”

“Fun day. Bikes were excellent with baskets so you can easily carry water etc. lots of vineyards close by. If you buy wine in selected winery they will be picked and bring back to the bike station…a very nice touch.”

“Thank you Greg for such a wonderful afternoon. You are such a great guide. Peter and I had a great time visiting 4 wineries and drinking very tasty wines. We met wonderful people from around the world. I always find such encounters interesting because the first few minutes are usually pretty formal with hellos, where are you from... and after having a few glasses of wine, we are like old friends having wonderful chats, laughing and we could not stop chatting. The glue to a wonderful tour is definitely Greg. You made us feel extremely relaxed, comfortable and the wineries were fantastic. In conclusion, if you are thinking about going for a wine tour... JUST GO ! Grape Escape is highly rrecommended. Peter & Hong (Malaysia) 3rd December 12pm”

“We did the Sip, Cycle, Soak (self-guided) package and it was honestly the highlight of our Hawke’s Bay trip! The day started with a fresh, delicious breakfast at The Bach Café, then we picked up our e-bikes. The team was so friendly and had everything ready to go. The ride itself was stunning—easy to navigate, with beautiful scenery the whole way and plenty of great spots to stop along the trail. We finished with a soak at Ocean Spa, which was the perfect way to unwind after a day of cycling. Such a fun, seamless experience. Would do it again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend!”

“Had an amazing experience today with the team at Mohaka rafting. Lots of silly jokes from professional and knowledgeable instructors. The Rapids are very fun and I felt very safe and well communicated the whole trip. Thank you very much Norm and team you live in an amazing area of New Zealand!!! ❤❤❤”

“An absolutely fantastic day This was a last minute booking as we arrived into Napier a day earlier than expected What a lucky result Don's knowledge is off the scale and his enthusiasm was infectious I have visited many wineries in the past but to be guided through the whole process was at a new level. His choices of wineries and his interaction throughout was something special Thanks Don for an education and a fabulous day with some lovely others guests. Highly recommend.”

“We had such an amazing experience with Dzidra and her beautiful horses today. It was so much more than your typical horse riding experience. My sisters and I would highly recommend Boutique Horse Trek for even the smallest of riders.”
