- LBLindsay· May 27th, 2024The tour went really well. The co-ordination of the drivers everywhere we went was amazing. They were prompt,kind and very helpful. I could not fault them. So whoever organises the tour did a great job. We were unaware that we were the only people going on this tour but once we adjusted it was great. I would like to comment on the huge distance we had to do to get to Piahia. If I could suggest maybe a stopover at another place of interest on the way would be great. I would recommend this tour if you want to get an overview of the North Island of New ZealandShow more

Ana Maria· March 16th, 2024Excellent attention!!!Thrifty Tours commented on this reviewHi AnaMaraLlugany, We are delighted to hear that you had a great time and thank you very much for the 5 stars! Kind regards, MarissaTrip date: March 2024- LRLydia· December 19th, 2022Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishDer erste Teil der Reise war zusammengestoppelt. Einen Linienbus kann ich selbst auch organisieren. Unter einer organisierten Tour verstehe ich eine Reisegruppe mit Reiseleitung. Das war eher ein Helpyourself-Programm. Das kenne ich anders. Beispiel: Norkapreise. 16 Tage. HP. Reiseleitung. 2 Chauffeure. Einzelzimmer. Schiffspassagen. Minikreutfahrt 4000 Euro. Im Vergleich dazu: 6 Tage. Bus. Hotel Bootsfahrt. Bus. .. der zweite Teil war allerdings besser. Den Chauffeur im Anzug, der den Gadt im weißen Auto um die Ecke zum Bus fährt kann man sich sparen. Das ist reines Chichi. Geben Sie diese Burteilung bitte an Thriftys weiter. Ich bedanke mich aber für Ihre Bemühungen bei der Umbuchung. Das war eine gute Diwnstleistung.Show moreThrifty Tours commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback Lydia, we appreciate you sharing your experience with us.
