What Our Customers Are Saying About Us

“It is with great pleasure that I and on behalf of Yennie and Luk Family (Larry, Connie & Ka Yui) write this testimonial to you, Patrick and your whole team. We have been back only a short while and have not stopped talking about how wonderful the tour was, how well everything was organised. You replied to us really efficiently every time and there were no hiccups during the journey. We would like to thank you for arranging a wonderful trip for us that exceeded all our expectations! […] We just had an amazing time from the minute we landed in Christchurch until we left. Patrick is an excellent tour guide, with his thoughtfulness, sharing of knowledge, the sightseeing became more meaningful. He was also patience, kind and helpful, which allow us to see him not just a guide but as a great friend towards the end of our holiday. […] THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts to you and Patrick for making our NZ Trip memorable! You will be the first person we contact when we plan our next vacation to New Zealand.” – Toh & Luk Family (SawTin, Yennie, Larry, Connie & Ka Yui).

“I just wanted to say how much Jo and I enjoyed our time in New Zealand. We really loved all the things we did and saw during our tour. I would also like to say how much we appreciated our tour guide Chris’ extensive knowledge of all things New Zealand. We learned a great deal about the history and geography of the country, and its wine and chocolate! Thank you for helping to make it a truly memorable holiday.” – Fran Franks.

Who are New Zealand Travel Organiser Group

New Zealand Guided Tours is part of the New Zealand Travel Organiser group. After working in the Tourism industry for years, and with a Bachelor of Tourism and a Bachelor of Commerce up her sleeve, Francine saw a gap in the market.  “There were so many travellers coming to New Zealand with no idea about where to travel to next, how far the travelling distance was to their next destination, where best to stay and the general structure of their holiday around New Zealand. It was disheartening, as New Zealand is so amazing, and should be on show!”

The business was set up with thought and care. As the team has grown, the amount of happy customers has also rapidly grown. In fact, the business has grown so much that we now have New Zealand Guided Tours standing alone in all its glory. Bringing us to the current day, 8 years on, with a busy beehive of an office full of friendly, helpful people helping clients, like you, book their perfect New Zealand Guided Holiday.

Our company philosophy is to deliver the most incredible New Zealand holidays available on the market. We achieve this through our expert local knowledge, our attention to detail, our extremely high level of customer service and our passion for ensuring the New Zealand holiday you book through us is without a doubt your best holiday yet.

We look forward to working with you!
