- AHansini· October 30th, 2024The scenery. Brownie our bus guideTrip date: October 2023Review collected by Collette
- ARobin· October 30th, 2024Was not able to complete several experiences. Tour was quite rigorous. I would have enjoyed a little slower pace. Could have skipped two of the 3 wine tasting experience for more time to explore each location.Trip date: November 2023Review collected by Collette
- ACarmen· October 30th, 2024I think our favorite experience was an optional excursion out of Queenstown. It was a steamboat ride to a farm where they provided lunch and a sheepherding demonstration.Trip date: January 2024Review collected by Collette
- ACraig· October 30th, 2024I think the tour manager was not up to the Collette standards we were used to. This was our fourth tour with Collette, and it was the worst experience ever for the money we spent.Trip date: February 2024Review collected by Collette

- AWANCHENG· October 30th, 2024What we want to see in Australia is what is unique about Australia that we cannot see here in America. I am sure we all enjoyed Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef tours. However, what I am dissatisfied with is the two days stay in Adelaide, where we visited a vineyard and watched a cooking show. However, these are not unique about Australia. There in Napa Valley are many world famous vineyards and wineries offering free wine tasting. And cooking shows are seen on the TV every day. What is unique about Australia is its very special animals: kangaroos, emus, koalas and so on. It is a pity that we failed to see these iconic animals in our trip to Australia. However, the fact is that the Kangaroo Island is only about three hours drive from Adelaide, where we could have visited a wildlife park. In the park we could see many unique animals of Australia, such as kangaroo, koala, platypus and so on. It’s ridiculous that our rental tour bus drove us to a little vineyard and a cooking show instead of going to the Kangaroo Island for a visit. Collette is wasting our time and money in making such a stupid arrangement in its itinerary.Show moreTrip date: March 2024Review collected by Collette
- AJames· October 30th, 2024Tour manager (Aaron) was wonderful as he made the trip go flawlessly. Bus was the ideal choice for NZ travel and plane for Australia given the distance between locations visited. Places visited were excellent choices and hotel accommodations were almost always top notch. Best time was biking the coast line in Wellington, both zip lining and jet boating in Queenstown which is absolutely stunning with the mountains, glacial lake and rivers and snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef.Show moreTrip date: March 2024Review collected by Collette
- AMary· October 30th, 2024Private tour of the iconic Sydney Opera House was extraordinary (an excellent guide) as well a trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Due to a previous injury, I was unable to go snorkeling. But I did take a boat tour either the “glass†bottom. That whole trip was just exciting.Show moreTrip date: April 2024Review collected by Collette
