with Chris as our guide.
Our family of three travelled for 14 days in the South Island
We enjoyed everything that Veronica had arranged for us. She planned an action packed trip that included a penguin tour, horseback riding, glow worm caves, hikes, a kayak tour, jet boat ride, Milford Sound and glacier visits. We sampled local wines and cheeses and saw spectacular scenery.
Our trip was very well co-ordinated. Chris knew exactly how long travel time would take and the best places to eat and drink. We did so much more than we ever could have on our own. He was so helpful and kind. Our 11 year old son adored him.
The accommodations were all unique with perfect locations. We really enjoyed Lakeside Villas in Wanaka and the Hapuka Factory. We appreciated the kitchen and laundry facilities available in all of them.
We found Aroha Tours on an internet search and were totally impressed with the honesty and quality of this vendor. Everything was exactly as stated and when one of our plan rides was cancelled due to weather our money was refunded promptly after we got home from New Zealand
We will remember our trip and experience forever. Many thanks!!
