- CCChristine· August 14th, 2023Arrangements for hotels, bus/van pickups were flawless. Every tour was on time and drivers/tour commentators were excellent. Good selection of tours and down time to enjoy New Zealand culture and scenery. Hotels for the most part very good. Some of the smaller vans were cramped with full set of passengers, but coaches comfortable and vans fine with fewer passengers. Overall highly recommended.Show moreThrifty Tours commented on this reviewHi Christine! Thank you for sharing your feedback - we really appreciate it! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your New Zealand holiday with Thrifty Tours NZ :)Trip date: August 2023
- RBRukhsana· September 6th, 2019All tours and transfers were meticulously planned. Drivers and tour guides were knowledgeable and provided informative commentary. Staff in the hotels were welcoming and friendly, we were given an upgrade at the Millennium Rotorua. Overall, we had a fabulous time in New Zealand, covered a lot of ground in a short timescale and wouldn’t have been able to do that without such a great itinerary planned by Thrifty tours. Kia ora.Show moreTrip date: August 2019
