What people love about Milford Sound Tours
- NZ Adventure 17 Day
Amazing tour. I’ve travelled with Intro before and I honestly think they are one of the best. The tour covered a lot of bucket list experiences..Hobbiton, jet boating, mountain hikes, Milford sound (we saw dolphins yay) etc. Sean was a fab guide, really helpful with arranging accommodation, onward travel and took some interesting group bus pictures that I’m I shall just treasure forever. You’ll meet some great people and see some amazing places so you don’t want to miss.

I really enjoyed the trip and loved getting the opportunity to see how beautiful New Zealand is. The only thing I would say is there was far too much free time that could have been spent doing more activities. Also there were too many days spent in rotorua. I understand New Zealand is not a cheap country so in order to make it more affordable there has to be more free time than other countries. But I do think in this situation it would be better to charge more for the trip in order to fill up some of that free time as people are expecting to get the most for their money. Personally I would want to experience as much as I can in the short time I’m in New Zealand and I would pay more to do it. That being said the group atmosphere was amazing and I enjoyed every second of the experience, just wish I had gotten to do a few more activities with the group while I was there.

"Amazing your. Super professional and well organized. Packs a lot into 7 days but it was perfect for people trying to pack a lot in and see a lot in a short amount of time. Tegan was the best!!! Knew so much and spoke so passionately about New Zealand and Māori culture. Was so nice to learn. And she is just the best
