What travelers are saying

"Enjoyed the tour overall. We left the tour in a few places to do our own thing but not a problem overall. Our guide *Personal details removed by Feefo* was very helpful and professional and our driver, *Personal details removed by Feefo*, was a gem. Only complaint is in relation to the hotels used. I am an experienced traveler and well versed in the size of hotel rooms but some of the hotels had rooms smaller than prison cells. Obviously they were chosen for price. The breakfasts provided also ranged in range and selection. Understandable when you select a hotel based on price. Some of the optional tours were overpriced but that is tourism. Enjoyed the group interaction and camaraderie."

What travelers are saying

"This was a tremendous trip. Nice mix of New Zealand s spectacular scenery and cultural highlights. In Australia Cairns was interesting for culture and great barrier reef, which is unfortunetely getting bleached due to rising ocean temps.The Sydney Opera house was amazing. Our Auastralian guide was knowledgeable and very organized. Only complaint was that at 37 folks the trip was too large in our opinion."
