Trip to a wonderful country, New Zealand
New Zealand
|
Apr 6 - Apr 18, 2023
Everyone at all the places we stayed were professional and courteous, very enjoyable stays.
We do not remember all our tour guides names (many were wine tasting tours!) but all were friendly and knowledgeable.
Restaurants, while all were good, had some types of food that were not to our liking. That is a matter of taste though.
Air New Zealand is now our favorite airline. We can not say enough about how well we were treated, both at the airports and on the flights.
Overall all we loved New Zealand. Wonderful people living in a clean and fascinating country. We will be returning for another visit.
Hotel Reviews
While the hotel, staff, location, restaurant, valet parking were all excellent the overall atmosphere was a little to trendy/cutting edge for this retired couple. Personal taste.
Steve and Natalie (spelling?) with their lovely dog Paddy were the best. We loved the whole time we were there.
Activity Reviews
The island itself was nice with great food and wine. We found a local cab driver who helped us around. The ferry ride there was bad. Overcrowded with no seats and people taking extra seats with their backpacks.
Jackie was filling in at the last moment and was a joy to be around.
We drink too much, can not remember our guides name but he was great!
Guide/driver was very knowledgeable and a good driver. Some of those road were a little narrow and windy but the guide/driver was great.
The trip was fine. The driver (me) did not take enough breaks and enjoy the drive like he should have!
Louie (who works for Jackie) was great. Had a wonderful time learning about Wellington.
Again drank too much. This is why we have guided tours! The three other people on the tour were great company.
Thank you very much for your great review and feedback.
We always love to plan perfect vacations! I am happy to read you had a great experience in fabulous places and some adventure too!
You have made some remarks which I will pass to the operators, particularly the ferry in Auckland.
We agree with you, we have a great partnership with Air New Zealand, all our clients that have flown this great airline, have a great experience!
We really appreciate this great review! And I personally thank you for your booking!
