Overnight Cruise
Caleb Johnston (United States)
27/09/2019
Absolutely amazing! Everything about the cruise was awesome, and I would highly recommend the doubtful sound overnight cruise to anyone. The only very minor improvement would just be that on the kayak section it felt a little rushed and for those who don't kayak much the pace was a little tiring without time to rest. A slower group or pace would have been helpful. Thanks though!!

Tasman Glacier Lake Cruise
Name Withheld (Indonesia)
17/09/2019
The tour was almost cancelled because of the weather and snowing. We have waited for 30 minutes, and the tour guide finally agreed to proceed. They made the right decision, because we had an experience of a life time. The stunning view of floating icebergs in the lake, definitely worth a visit. Because the glacier won't be around in next 30 years. The tour guide was most knowledgeable and informative.

An amazing experience. This tour allowed us to see the unique natural beauty and attractions of the North Island. Lots of geothermal magnificence accompanied by the sublime beauty of New Zealand.

Kia Ora! We had a wonderful holiday. Everything went smoothly with transportation and accommodations. The accommodations were very comfortable and centrally located. On two occasions, our super shuttle did not show up at the time listed on our travel voucher, but after calling them, they resolved the discrepancy and provided us transportation in a timely manner. In Rotorua, the super shuttle came to pick us up at the hotel (on time) and took us to the drop off site which was just across the street (we could have walked). Thank you for an outstanding job arranging our tour. It made it so easy to travel and enjoy our holiday.

Relaxing Journeys helped organise a custom-made tour for us. They were very thorough and efficient, adapting readily to our needs and requests. Chelsea was always available and replied quickly to any queries made. I would definitely recommend this company to others.

4WD & Ferry Scenic Tour

This was a lovely tour. We got to see a lot of the island and with a short walk (warning- lots of stairs) we were able to see all around the island from the top. The lava fields were interesting to experience and our tour guide was funny and knowledgable. Great tour!

My family enjoyed our tour. I would like to take this opportunity to compliment your staff Marie Sarmon for the excellent service she provided to us. She was prompt and kept us well informed all the way, she was extremely helpful, competent, attentive & professional in her interactions with us. Because of the exceptional experience we had with Marie we definitely will use your services and recommend our friends and family to your company in the future.

Mid Range Self Drive
Grant Downie (United Kingdom)
02/06/2019
The tour was excellent overall. The right time at each place and appropriate route. We did find Arrowtown a worthy visit which wasn't listed on your itinerary so may be worth listing for future clients. All hotels where excellent barring the one in Queenstown. The room we were given was dirty and the heating didn't work. Although this is something out of anybody's control we reported it the next morning but by the evening nobody had fixed it or even serviced the room! We reported it to reception and in fairness we were then moved. Maybe worth considering for future clients the standard of this hotel.
Another thing is you can't put postcodes into the satnav system but on the last day we were returning to the airport at 4am and it wouldn't allow us to put in airport as it needed the street name of which we didn't have. Would be worth therefore putting this on the itinerary.
Thank you for your service which we found first class.

Where do I start. The B&B's were wonderful loved the personal interactions with the owners. Warm cosy and great breakfasts. The tours we did were wonderful. The whole trip was so well planned the driving distance were good giving plenty of time to see the sights and say WOW..... Wow.... wow ....WOW especially on the west coast. Each corner we turned was something new. Just loved it.

From the extremely helpful staff and quick replies by email to the easy to read itinerary the trip was an amazing success. We had enough things to do without having to book many more beyond what the tour offered even the long car trips were fun and relaxing with some of the most scenic views in valleys and on mountains.

Premium Coach Tour
Erin Bailey (United States)

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.

Tasman Glacier Lake Cruise

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.

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.

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.
