Tasman Glacier Lake Cruise
Peter Conis (Australia)
19/05/2019
Our tour was fantastic. Mind blowing scenery and fantastic friendly hosts that had all the interesting history and factual information about the area. It is a "must do" when visiting the South Island of New Zealand. I would like to mention tour guide Melissa as a standout on our cruise as she went the "extra mile" to ensure our experience was indeed memorable.

Premium Coach Tour
Erin Bailey (United States)
19/05/2019
We were able to see and do a lot even though the start times each day were very early. We liked the Freedom of Choice selections. The hotels could use some updating although they were all in a great location. We were the youngest couple in the group by about 15 years. It would have been good to know that we were joining an existing tour (the one that came in from the North Island) because everyone already had a couple of weeks to get to know each other before we joined. The tour guide, Karen and coach driver, Rob were both very knowledgeable about each place we visited and about the places along the way. It was a busy trip but we knew that going into it and we got to see the places we wanted. There weren't any real surprises from what Relaxing Journeys told us to what we experienced so that was a plus.

A lot of time on buses in the first four days, but I wanted to see the South Island and I did! The tour ran smoothly -- no glitches!

The overnight cruise on Doubtful Sound was fantastic. It was wet and cloudy providing plenty of amazing waterfalls and great scenery. We're so glad we included this trip in our NZ itinerary.

All hotels were excellent for the trip, the only comment I would have is that the Heartland Cotswold in Christchurch is looking tired and pales compared to others such as the Heritage in Queenstown. Otherwise, I would recommend Relaxing Journeys to all.

Small Group Tour
Charles Johnson (USA )

This is the way to see New Zealand both North and South Islands. The bus was luxurious and our group of 20 was very comfortable and never so large so as to be disorganized. We had an outstanding coach captain and driver, Paul, who presented his country very well.

We were very happy with the tour Nicole set up for us. We were very nervous about going to a new country, not knowing exactly what to do and where to go, what to see. Nicole set up a perfect combination of active and restful. The hotels she selected were fantastic, comfortable, clean, lovely all around. The activities were fun and interesting, educational and exciting, especially the Skywalk in Auckland. Terrifying, but also exciting. We kept a travelogue on Facebook and have had many friends and family contact us, asking about what company we used. We tell them Relaxing Journeys is the BEST!

We spent 14 days driving the South Island. The accomodation chosen for us was excellent and in good locations. The suggestion for places to visit was most helpful. The hire car service was good.

The tour was amazing - the walk was gentle and well paced and the boat ride on the lake was beyond my expectations. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and fun. A truly wonderful experience for our whole family.

Low Cost Coach Tour
STELLA SCHROETER (Australia)

A very well organised tour from the time we got picked up at the airport until our departure. Both our tour guide Dennis and the bus driver Alex were very knowledgeable, considerate and accommodating. The staff at most the places were very friendly and professional. (Having our bags picked up each morning was a plus).

Premium Coach Tour

The coach tour was excellent especially our guide Nick and coach drivers Megan & Alex. They were very knowledgable and had great empathy and communication skills to people of all ages and works of live. Our accommodation was OK. We had three in the room although on three occasions it was only set up for two. Too much buffet food and too similar throughout the tour. I really enjoyed the ala carte style dinners. The pace could have been a bit faster. 6o'clock wake up calls could have been later as all on tour were very efficient in packing, breakfast and boarding the bus. We really enjoyed the tour and met some great people. We would certainly recommend Grand Pacific to our family and friends. Thanks also to Georgina Clark for all her efficient and prompt service and various communiques. It was most appreciated.

Boutique Self Drive
Amanda Goldrick-Jones (Canada)

Everything went smoothly with the transfers, and our accommodations were superb, with plenty of opportunities to savour local food and wine. Our tours were interesting, fun, and very worthwhile with their emphasis on NZ history and Maori culture, and our tour guides were enthusiastic and knowledgable. The pace of driving was just right. All in all, we would strongly recommend this package!
