We had a great 2 weeks in South Island, NZ
New Zealand

Jun 22 - Jul 3, 2023
We had a great 2 weeks in New Zealand. Went with my wife and youngest son (he’s 21). As an American - New Zealand is a long way away! We wanted an adventure to South Island…. And Sabina asked our goals…. And then fit in activities to meet those goals. Highlights were a helicopter ride onto a glacier at Mt Cook where we then put on crampons and hiked around the glacier. Our guide found an ice cave and we were able to go into it. Amazing experience as we were 20-ish feet beneath surface in bluest of blue ice…. Knowing the cave will be gone in a year…and a new one will form. Another highlight was a kayaking tour in Milford Sound…. Scenery was utterly amazing, we got to see lots of wildlife (including sea lions), and learned a ton. Best part about trip was each morning was a pre-planned adventure and everything was organized. I had a few questions during trip…. Pinged the app…. And the KimKim folks responded very quickly and sorted our issue.
Now that I’m back, I am organizing a trip for my two sons to visit Australia in November. And again utilizing the skills of Sabina.

Highlight of our 2 weeks in South Island.
Hi Jack,
Thank you so much for your feedback. I am so glad you and your family were able to do everything you wanted and it was a lovely trip for you all! The Glaciers and Milford are 2 of my favorite parts of the south island. It is great you had the chance to see how majestic and beautiful the country is. Good luck to Will in his time studying in New Zealand following your trip!
