Springboard Vacations
At Springboard we believe in travel experiences that are far from ordinary – vacations that are indulgent, fun and stress-free. We believe in making sure every detail is just right, that where you lay your head at night is not just a bed but a place to with a story. We believe in authentic experiences that change our outlook on the world and enrich us.
We believe in designing unique itineraries as individual as every person we have the privilege of creating a trip for. No two are the same. We understand that this may be your only time to a part of the world that we love, so we want to make sure it’s unforgettable for all the right reasons. We love to share our passion with you as much as we love discovering new experiences during our own travel – things that you can fall in love with too. This keeps our work fresh and our passion high.
We understand that planning a trip can be an overwhelming task with way too much information to sort through and way too much at stake to get it wrong. We understand that you want value for money and someone who really understands both the destination and you, the traveler - to draw on their experience to guide you through this process. You need an advocate to find the best options for you and deliver you everything you have dreamed of. Because this is not just a trip it’s your bucket list coming to life!

Hello!!!
Thanks so much for the beautiful review !! It was so nice to work with you both and of course I would help any time in the future!!
I'll follow up with the Routeburn guide. Last time I did it he almost went too slow!!! They should adjust to the group so nobody gets behind.
Thanks again and call me anytime!

Amazing New Zealand honeymoon

We ha an amazing trip to New Zealand, and Connie was wonderful in getting it organized. This was for our honeymoon, and she took care of finding us the best hotels and some excellent ground tours. There were even surprise cakes along the way which was a great touch. Plus the service and customization to exactly what we wanted was excellent. Would deflintely work with Connie again in the future. It was a great combination of being able to travel independently while not worrying so much about the planning, which can be so time consuming with all the options these days. Definitely A+++++!
Hello Steven
I am thrilled you enjoyed everything we discussed for your trip and that you celebrated your honeymoon in style. We are thrilled that you had a seamless and stress-free experience with us. Your kind words are a great testament to the hard work and dedication we invest in each job.
We hope to see you soon on another of our trips.
Take care, and thank you again for your fantastic review
