New Zealand Self Drive Tour Reviews

Our travel consultant Amelia was helpful from Day 1. After interviewing me about our family and vacation desires, she put together an itinerary that was thoroughly enjoyed by our family of 4. We were thrilled with the sights, activities, and lodging arrangements, and were impressed with the pacing of the vacation with a good combination of tours and activities combined with free time for additional exploring. She was prompt to answer questions and offer suggestions, and helped keep us organized both before and during the trip. Everything went like clockwork!

Jo was very quick to respond to us in New Zealand whenever we needed help. It was a pleasure working with her, everything went smoothly and we enjoyed our stay throughout.

Thank you very much for this great experience.

Chrissy Sun planned a perfect trip for us to New Zealand. She built an itinerary based on our likes of hiking and beautiful scenery. She arranged all transportation within New Zealand, every car, train , plane and boat ride. It was so easy to just hand the voucher to the agent or hotel reception clerk and off we went. We thought this was a once in a lifetime trip but would love to go back. Kudos to Chrissy Sun for helping us have a great holiday.

My first trip all by myself, so exciting, but once arrived in New Zealand it was the most fantastic adventure ever! And that is all thanks to the great organization of Judith. I fell in love with the country and its inhabitants. New Zealand, I’m definitely coming back!

Kind regards,

Hi Jo,

We had a wonderful holiday. Your itinerary was fabulous and all accommodation was brilliant. In particular we loved the Hotel in Dunedin and also the apartment in Lake Taupo. The glow worm tour on Charleston (we upgraded to the river float) was awesome.

I would thoroughly recommend using this First LIght Travel for travelling through NZ. It was great to have everything booked and be able to just follow the itinerary each day.

Many thanks

My wife and I have used First Light for 2 week trips to both Australia and New Zealand and had a great time. We felt the itinerary maximized our time and let us still have enough time to explore on our own. I highly recommend using them for trips to AUS/NZ.

We had a fabulous time in Fiji, all thanks to Amelia and First Light Travel. The planning of our holiday was very well organized & hassle-free. We travelled to Beachcomber island resort and had a wonderful & relaxing holiday there. The most special part of our holiday was that we made this trip with our one year old naughty baby which made our stay memorable and heartwarming. A holiday to remember for a lifetime. This is my second fantastic holiday with First Light Travel and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a holiday to the south pacific region.

Sofie from First Light Travel was amazing. She was extremely helpful in recommending different activities and fine tuning the trip to be exactly as we had hoped. There were places recommended by First Light Travel that we would never have found on on our own and these places provided the most amazing experiences.

Hi Sofie,

Thank you again for all the work you did to provide a great experience for us. It was a shame about the weather, now we will have to come back. I will definitely call you to arrange our time here. It is a pity that First Light Travel doesn’t do travel in other countries, as I would have loved to use your service for each country we travel to in the future! You have my highest praise. First light travel is so fortunate to have you.

Best regards
