  The itinerary was amazing! We got to see and experience so much of NZ but it didn’t feel rushed. The perfect combination of natural beauty, adventurous activities (especially if you did the optional additional ones), and making memories with the group. I was a tad nervous but instantly felt at home with the group and our amazing leader Tommy. Would recommend this to anyone looking to explore NZ and make new friends and experiences!

  This tour is amazing!! I would highly recommend it to anyone, I have made lots of really close friends who I will be keeping in contact with going forward. New Zealand is an unbelievable country. The scenery is unreal and there are so many different places to explore. The activities included in this tour were very diverse and all so much fun. My group leader Tommy, was extremely helpful. He was a real friend to everyone on the trip and would be more than happy to help with any issues we had. He was very knowledgeable about the country as well and he played a massive role in making this tour so good.

  All of the 17 days of the NZ adventure has been fantastic time. Danny Flanders is a fantastic group leader and shows he is very experienced in handling a group with various kind of people and needs. He is kind, friendly and ensures everyone is okay and included within the group. He likes to make sure everyone is having a good time and enjoying the activities we have included within the tour but also recommends the optional activities (you have to pay for these) that we can do in our free time. Danny ensures to message and let everyone know in a WhatsApp group what is happening for the next day so it runs very smoothly. Danny has spoken to us about the NZ sights, culture, food (kiwi pies!) and nature which shows how much Danny enjoys sharing his knowledge, some history and information about the country. I have really enjoyed my Intro travel tour for New Zealand and Danny have made it extra enjoyable for everyone too and always smiling! Danny makes sure to take plenty of photos for us which is great and helpful. Various mixed age group was from 18 to 36 years old and maximum people of 18 of the tour group. Really liked that we had our own private bus for journeys. It was a bonus to have breakfasts included as it made it a stress free mornings! All of the Haka Houses Hostel Accommodation have been great and didn't have any issues at all. Last accommodation of the tour needs changing as didn't like Nomads Backpackers but understand it is central to Queenstown. Please provide towels for each accommodation. It would be good to be given a little Intro travel bag of essentials like shampoo, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste if doing the tours over 9 days to get started and maybe cheap flip flops to use in communal areas/shower! I know some people would like to do the farewell dinner but maybe it can be an optional choice especially if people would prefer to get a flight home that evening after jet boating (especially if you have a very long flight or short on Annual Leave for those who are working). Maybe people would like to get lunch together instead as definitely try the Fergburgers! I think in the future, Abel Tasman National Park would be nicer place to do or something like Te Papakura o Taranaki Egmont National Park than Wellington as that was the least favourite place to visit in North New Zealand. Also 7 hours bus journey and the activities in Wellington wasn't the best to do. Otherwise the NZ adventure itinerary was planned with a lot of good activities included and ran very smoothly by Danny. Wānana day activities could be swapped as a morning hike up Mt Iron rather than a late afternoon hike (in the summer?) and a longer time to do the kakaying on the river (least 2 hours as gives people an hour to explore themselves if they wish). Thank you for reading my review I would like to say a huge thank you to Danny Flanders for making us have a great and memorable time in New Zealand Adventure Tour! :)

  This tour was absolutely excellent from start to finish, and I'm not sure that there is even one thing I would have changed about it (except maybe that it could have lasted longer!). Tommy, our guide, was amazing - friendly, professional, fun and everything in between, he helped to make the tour unforgettable. What really stood out about this trip however was the people - everybody was friendly and we got along straight away, even when the group changed slightly between the North & South island - I can genuinely say that I made some lifelong friends and am devastated to have to leave them already. Everything was expertly organised, meaning that I didn't have to worry about a single aspect of the planning for the trip, and the activities that we did (including the optional extras like bungy jumping and white water rafting) were with the best companies around - Tommy even booked us onto these meaning that the entire experience was seamless. This tour has been by far the best group trip I've done to date, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Intro travel to anyone looking to visit New Zealand. PS, book the 17-day tour, it's SO worth it:)

  I recently completed the 17 day NZ Adventure tour with Danny as my Group Leader, and I can honestly say it was one of the best places I have visited! Both the North and South Islands were incredible, but my highlights were staying in Lake Tekapo, hiking through Mount Cook / Hooker Valley, cruising through Milford Sound and exploring Queenstown, including a ride on a jet boats. We enjoyed many fun nights out and experienced some memorable karaoke sessions! Danny was an amazing Group Leader, always bringing the energy and ensured the group had the best time. He was very approachable, highly organised and a pleasure to be around, I know we will stay in touch. Thank you Danny and INTRO - I highly recommend this tour, especially if you are lucky enough to have Danny. I already have my next trip booked with INTRO.

  This tour is the best way to see the key spots of New Zealand. Doing both North and South Island gives you such a wide variety of activities and immersion into the different cultures.

  This was a fantastic experience across both the North & South Island. Starting with the North Island, after meeting the group you get started with activities including a big one with Hobbiton which is an unreal experience any Lord of the Rings fans and was a personal highlight. White Water Rafting was the best experience here compared to other places including a real waterfall drop. Trekking Mordor to see Mount Doom, you get more of that Lord of the Ring experience and for those who like a hike. FYI that’s an early morning trek! Sunset sailboat across the lake was also a fun experience and great for a dip and party too. South Island, if you love hikes, you will love this place including see unreal sights. It’s beautiful and really looks like something from storybooks of prehistoric! Lake Tekapo & Wanaka were beautiful places to hike, swim and star gaze. If you’re like me and want to go crazy, don’t forget to skydive, Nevis bungee and Nevis swing! Amazing particularly the last two. Unreal. Queenstown is beautiful to finish up and the cool place in NZ. Don’t forget to luge! You get to meet a great group of people to share experiences! Make sure to take loads of photos and write down your experiences for great memories!
