Loretta’s 20 Day New Zealand Birding Adventure
United States of America

Working with First Light Travel was a delight. From the very first contact, we felt like we were going to be taken good care of! Our trip planner listened closely to what we were interested in doing and came up with a fantastic itinerary that took us across both the North and South Islands for some amazing experiences. We loved Tiritiri Matangi island and it was an excellent first activity to get to know the native birds we'd be seeing throughout our trip. Then, when a big storm disrupted travel across the country, First Light worked incredibly hard behind the scenes to get us back on track amidst huge disruptions with flights, rental cars, and accommodations. We were so thankful for their support and had a wonderful holiday in New Zealand.
