- PMPhil· September 28th, 2023The overnight cruise was great. However, we were disappointed that one of the other tours was canceled. While we were refunded for the cancellation that was only from RealNZ. It still seemed like there was money paid from the overall package through Tour Radar that was not refunded.Show moreThrifty Tours commented on this reviewHello Phil, Thank you for taking the time to write a review, your feedback is very important to us.

- Chris· August 11th, 2023Enjoyed the DS experience! Amazing!! Only one suggestion. 1st driver did not make it clear that 1st stop was at Te Anau. I was sitting in back, with a handful of small active children and didn't hear much. I was to get off bus. I just followed everyone else thinking everyone was going to same DS tour. I ended up in Milford missing the Glow Caves. Driver, Johnny, was excellent! After bus stopped, he got up and made it very clear who was to get off bus at certion points. Made a big difference. I'm use to European tours where tour guide stays with you and all the people are going on same tour. 1st time in NZ...loved it. Also, must give shout out to Marissa, tour operator! She was excellent in her communications w/ me! Patience, kindness and cking in was above and beyond! Thank you, ChrisShow moreThrifty Tours commented on this reviewHi Chris, thank you so much for your feedback. We will pass your suggestion on to the bus touring company about making the stops clearer :) I will also pass on your kind words to my colleague Marissa who booked the tour for you. We hope you get to visit... Show moreTrip date: August 2023
