Your highly experienced New Zealand tour guide will meet you at any airport or your choice and take care of all driving throughout your holiday.

In addition to showing off the sights, your guide will enrich your experience with stories of New Zealand’s Maori and European history. You will gain explanations of the powerful natural forces that shaped the dramatic landscape. All this plus the personal touch that makes our guided tours unsurpassable.

Your guide will share insider knowledge about the best viewpoints, the most scenic walkways, the most delicious restaurants, the local watering holes, and the quirky local shops.

There’s a reason why our guided tours are so phenomenal – because nothing can beat seeing New Zealand through the eyes of a local.

Moreover, your guide will customise your New Zealand guided tour to suit your group in every way. If you are travelling as a family, your guide will provide diversions to keep everyone happy, young and old. If you have a particular interest in history, culture, geology, wineries, wildlife, photography, etc. let us know. Your guide will tailor your holiday to include a wealth of knowledge about your area of interest.

Our all inclusive trips to New Zealand are carefully crafted to surpass every expectation. We will work with you until your New Zealand guided tour itinerary looks exactly the way you want it to. No detail is too small to consider!

We were a group of 15 who visited both north and South Island on a 14 day guided tour in December 2022. We are very pleased with guided New Zealand tours and Francine Smith. From the first email inquiry, Francine has been very responsive and prompt. She was easy to work with and is knowledgeable. The hotels we stayed in were excellent and easily among the best in town. The activities she scheduled were outstanding and we greatly enjoyed our trip to New Zealand. I would like to thank Francine particularly for choosing G. Gordon Hammer as our guide.

We had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Francine arranged a tour that suited our family perfectly. She was very responsive and made sure we got exactly what we wanted (and we were a diverse group!). Our guide, Dirk, was knowledgable, patient, accommodating and had the patience of a saint. Honestly, we felt like we were in a magic bubble for 2 weeks. Couldn't have asked for a better NZ Adventure.

We were so fortunate to have discovered New Zealand Guided Tours! From the beginning, Francine of NZGT was so helpful and responsive. She answered all our questions and provided lots of details concerning our trip. We booked a private guided 18 Day Lord of the Rings Guided Tour with New Zealand Guided Tours and couldn’t have been more pleased. The itinerary was perfect for our family and included many activities and sites that our family loved. The Lord of the Rings tour sites were all beautiful and of great interest to the LOTR fans in our family. The itinerary also included other activities such as a visit to the Glow Worm Caves, float plane ride, Gondola Ride and Luge-ing from tall mountains, a visit to the USA Antarctic Research Center in Christchurch, Jet boat ride and much more. One of the best things about our tour was our tour guide Mark. Mark provided commentary throughout the tour and took us to places only a seasoned tour guide would know of. Don’t bother looking for other tour companies as New Zealand Guided Tours is the best.

Outstanding tour with a very knowledgeable and personable Driver named Marc. We needed the company to make the entire trip wheelchair accessible and they were very accommodating and knowledgeable. The cost of individualization and personalization for the trip was well worth the investment for our family's new memories. Accommodations and transportation were top notch. Pleasure to deal with - I highly reccommend for any Lord of the Rings fans!!

We are a group of 10 from Singapore on a photography tour in the South Island of NZ. Our experience with New Zealand Guided Tours was absolutely first class. From the planning, customizing and working out details with Tour Consultant Kelly Hughes to the actual running of the tour with Travel Guide Patrick Griffin, everything was immaculately arranged and executed. Patrick was superb as a guide and friend! We benefited much from his excellent local knowledge and we all enjoyed and so appreciated his tireless efforts to ensure we got the best of whatever we wanted to do or see. Patrick went far beyond expectation to make sure we achieved our objectives. We highly recommend this company with Patrick and his team for a fantastic New Zealand experience.
