“Don is a one of a kind tour guide. He got along with all of us all like a house on fire from the get go and made us feel at home. I could not recommend him more!”

“They Price any journey to give 110% value. Well worth using.....”

“The best Heli service in NZ hands down.”

“We had a wonderful tour experience with Toby today. Everything was above and beyond. Toby was very knowledgeable and personable and a pleasure to be around. I would highly recommend. Not to mention the dog petting fix!!! Thanks Toby”

“Friendly service and loved the new coaches”

“Lovely people. We have booked a Southland tour with them. Cant wait”

“I was tentatively excited about this trip as it wasn't my first choice for excursions, but I compromised with my partner, who is a huge fan of LOTR to go on this trip. I ended up having a fantastic time and enjoyed the overall experience so much more than I expected. Our driver, Saskia, was delightful and chatty providing us with interesting background on the country as we drove the few hours to and from Hobbiton. Our Hobbiton tour itself was absolutely delightful and the meat pies at the Green Dragon are a must try!”

“Had a Hobbiton tour refunded with no issues as the Port was closed due to bad weather.”

“Had a great time with Tom on a rainforest hike. He was flexible and adjusted plans because of weather and took us to two spectacular rain forests. He is crazy knowledgeable and open to lots of questions. I feel like I not only got a great day in nature but learned a lot as well. My only regret was we didn’t have more time in our itinerary to book more tours with Tom. Would definitely do again.”

“We had an Incredible day out with amazing Kathrine. We are locals and were blowen away by some of the places we didnt even know were out our doorstep. The food was exceptional as was our host. I would highly reccommed this.”

“Classic Cruises offers a perfect solution if you are looking to experience the beauty and natural wonders of Lake Rotoiti. Check out the scenery, experience the hot pools, or catch a nice juicy trout - highly recommended!”

“NAILED IT! I contacted Tāpoi Travel and 2 other travel agencies to plan my husband and my bucket list trip. My inquiry was the same with all 3 agencies I reached out to. I did not want a typical Australian vacation. We love adventure, and I am a big adrenaline addict. My husband and I are foodies and are very much into wine tasting, so I wanted to get to enjoy our Australian vineyards as we ate and tasted great wines across the country. When I met with Toni, she read my inquiry and wanted to help make the trip everything I imagined. (The other agents gave me a typical Australian vacation big things to see and do with no real adventure and did not include any of the vineyards I initially showed interest in.) To make it even more complicated, we wanted to spend Christmas and New Year's in Australia. Toni and Luke worked hard coming up with ideas and tweaking them as we made changes and additions until we had the perfect trip. We started in Perth and spent Christmas Day on Rottnest Island, riding electric bikes and snorkeling. (BEST DAY EVER) Since it was Christmas, there was not much for lunch on the Island, so they jumped in and added a lunch reservation at a local resort. From then to the end of our trip, we had so many unique experiences, and as we talked to other people, they were so surprised at what we were doing. Many Australians told us they had never experienced many items on our itinerary. We had wine tasting, an airplane ride over the pink lakes, traveled The Nullabar, walked a bridge over the tingle trees, went down into the caverns beautiful cave, swam with sea lions and dolphins, took a hot air balloon ride over Melbourne, spent the night at the Taronga Zoo, climbed the Sydney bridge, toured the Sydney Opera House, had a great food tour, visited many vineyards, and more things I can not even think of at the moment. Tāpoi arranged everything, from drivers and transportation to lodging and tour guides. Upon arrival, they took care of everything we needed and had little notes or instructions in our rooms. In addition, Toni checked in on us often to ensure there were no problems; if there was a problem, she and Luke were super quick to help fix it. (BTW, there was only one actual problem, but it was quickly resolved and was more of the driver being in the wrong area at the airport, not a real issue.) I can not say enough positive things about Tāpoi. They executed a fantastic trip of a lifetime, and we are looking forward to working with them on our next big adventure to New Zealand!”
