- David· January 16th, 2025Our overall experience was excellent. The New Zealand tour comp did a fine job booking hotels, car rental and activities. Their app was great. Their support was very helpful.Show more
- Barbara· March 28th, 2024We thoroughly enjoyed our self-driving tour. The experience was seamless from start to finish. Once we signed up, we received communication within minutes putting our hearts at ease. When we reached our destinations, we would simply give our names and the rest would be taken care of. Any questions or changes we had we're dealt with quickly and efficiently. The accommodations were simply beautiful, everything we needed and more. I also enjoyed using the app, especially being able to keep a travel journal and a list of our expenses. We would recommend this service to others who would like to explore an area with all the work taken care of at a reasonable price.Show more
