New Zealand Self Drive Tour Reviews

Wow, what a truly amazing experience, First Light Travel put together for our honeymoon. With very little input, other than knowing we wanted to experience the entire island in a 2 week period, she was able to plan a once in a lifetime trip. A trip that met and exceeded all of our expectations. From the wine tours on Waiheke Island and around Nelson, the kayaking and hiking around Abel Tasman, the helicopter ride to the top of a glacier near Queenstown, the stunning beauty of the Milford Sound on a fly/cruise/fly day trip to the round of golf along Lake Wakatipu with The Remarkables as a backdrop.

We cannot recommend the team at First Light Travel enough. Thank you for the countless memories!

From the very first email from FLT offering to work on the itinerary to the whole holiday experience, was the smoothest, most convenient and awesome experience. NZ by itself is the MOST AMAZING place on the planet. With friends at FLT it undoubtedly was a once in a lifetime family holiday.

Hey Jo!

Just wanted to email you and let you know that we had the absolute BEST honeymoon in New Zealand! Everything was completely flawless and so easy. The itinerary suited us so well. All the planned activities were perfect - we thoroughly enjoyed each one. The accommodations were great - we loved every place we stayed. Everything was just incredible. We can't thank you enough and truly appreciate all your help planning the greatest 2-week vacation for us! Thank you again!

This was the best experience of our life. First Light Travel helped to make our honeymoon one of a kind. From the relaxing days on Hahei Beach to the adventurous hiking through Tongariro National Park, and bungy jumping off Kawarau bridge in Queenstown, she helped to make everyday hit a highpoint and check off something on our bucket list! We will be back to visit New Zealand soon, what a beautiful place!

First Light Travel was amazing from start to finish. Christine was so helpful while she came up with the perfect itinerary for our honeymoon in New Zealand. If I had a question during the trip I knew she would be able to get back to me quickly.

We had such a wonderful experience with the itinerary that she created for us!

From start to finish, we had first-rate guidance from our First Light Travel agent, Shelley Kirk. She chose wonderful high spots on both Islands, picked varied accommodations which added to the trip and which always put us in great locations, scenic in the countryside, central in the cities. There was never a glitch in either lodging or transport--a real feat for a nineteen day trip that covered the country. Our B&B hosts, our yacht captain, our tour guides, were rich in lore, history and information, and above all infectious in their enthusiasm for the country and eager to answer all questions about New Zealand. The Maori part of the trip--the villages, the evening dinner and performance, the museums, added richly to our experience.

Merry Christmas Joe,

I haven’t given up on returning to NZ to “Finish our Trip”, though it might be another year or two. But you can be sure you will be the first to know.

Thank you again for putting together such a wonderful trip for us.

Judith planned the New Zealand trip for my dad and me. It was amazing. We enjoyed every part of it! The accommodations were more than perfect and they were located in the most beautiful places. We did have some trouble during our trip and the only thing we had to do was call First Light Travel. Judith, Anne and Jo were always there to help. We can’t thank you enough!
