What people love about Auckland to Wellington Tours
- NZ Intro North
Lovely experience! Our tour leader Sean was so helpful and great fun! Would recommend intro to a friend :)
- North Island Explorer: Landscapes & Legends
Had a brilliant time on the North Island tour. Was only 6 of us, which gave things an intimate feel and allowed us to get to know each other. Definitely went to a few places I'd never have found on my own, although some of the accommodations we used were maybe not up to scratch. Almost all the activities were excellent though, and Hannah is a fantastic tour leader!

Except for Cordis, Hotels could have been better. Tour guide, driver and sights weee excellent
