Hertz Rent a Car
4.0/5
Friendly, welcoming member of staff at Nelson Airport, clean vehicle that performed well on unsealed roads at steep gradients.
Not cheap - would have chosen another company (and did) when hiring a car from Auckland where more choice/competition.

Tongariro Alpine Crossing
3.5/5
Best one day walk in New Zealand??
Possibly on a good day. Enjoyed it definitely. But was blessed with sunshine at the crucial descent from Red Crater so the Emerald Lakes looked brilliant. And views of Ngaruhoe too. But on a grey, cloudy day?? Would not be that special. And it is a procession - hundreds of people.....

4.5/5
Excellent, lots of space, ample provision of cooking/toilet/shower facilities.
Friendly, helpful staff, easy to book activities. Well serviced, maintained, minor quibble - mirrors above sinks would be useful for us gents shaving rather than beside.

Motueka Top 10 Wine Tours
5.0/5
Excellent!
Relaxed, friendly, informative guide (Michael), and the first two wineries - small operations - were superb and more interesting/rewarding than the second two larger 'company' operations (tho also good) and a beer stop to top it all - a great day!
