Veronika's Aroha Luxury Tours made our dream come true beyond our expectations!!
She planned a North/South Island two week adventure that was truly spectacular. With only a brief idea of what we wanted, Veronika not only understood our desires, but expanded and modified the trip along the way to ensure that we got the most from the tour. The luxury lodges were outstanding because she had personally stayed, knew the owners and settings. The lodges, their views, meals, the owners all were unbelievable...great memories. We had unique adventures to private areas that only a select few will ever experience. Like the private 4-wheel drive tour of a 30,000 acre farm high in the hills for a private lunch and spectacular view, with the service owner who enjoys showing people "his New Zealand". Or the helicopter tour of White Island volcano lifetime chance or the other helicopter ride high above the Fiordland mountains/water to a view and experience that we will never forget for its spectacular sights, landings, and captivating aerial views that the pilot/owner thrilled us with. The helicopter ride to the glacier and mountains was also truly spectacular with the bright sun and unbelievable views. What was our favorite activity??...all were forever embedded in our memories. Aroha Luxury Tours did an outstanding job. I would highly recommend Veronika, the owner, for her knowledge, her understanding of what a client wants, ability to modify to enhance the enjoyment along the way, her true "love of New Zealand" and desire to make sure that you see the real sights and get to experience New Zealand rather than provide a "tour" service. You will miss so much if you try to do this yourself. You experience things you did not think possible or would dream of without her arrangements. The lasting memories, pictures, experiences of New Zealand will be treasured. Thank you Veronika for satisfying our dream beyond our expectations and forming a desire to return to your beautiful land.
