Read moreKayla gave us excellent service in organising the trip and helping us during it - the best travel agent I have ever used. Hobbiton was unexpectedly good - we were sceptical but it was very good indeed. The Whitianga experience - boat tour and walk to New Chums Beach were highlights. We regretted spending only one night ion Wellington. All three train rides were superb. Christchurch was the nicest town we visited (though we think that Wellington would have rivalled it. Franz Josef worth the effort of the big drive from Queenstown due to the scenery getting there, seeing the glacier itself and the Tranzalpine from Greymouth. Rotorua was disappointing… but perhaps that was because of the need to cancel our canopy walk/ziplining - the town centre is very uninspiring. Basically, you’ve got to be doing stuff the whole time. We find it weird that in Aoraki, Rotorua, Queenstown and Franz Josef there is a lot of talk about the negative effects of Global warming.. and they are very evident - but there are lots of activities that contribute significantly to the issue - helicopter trips, flights to see stuff, fast water craft etc…

Read moreFrom start to finish our NZ South Island Self Drive tour was unbelievable!! Nichole's knowledge of her unique home, the amazing organisation of our itinerary n luxury accommodation and the support along the way was sooo professional and friendly. You name it we experienced it, the food and wine were amazing and the people we met along our adventures, both local n travellers were just so friendly. The special memories we have made will last our lifetime. We will definitely be back!

Read moreWe can’t specify any particular day, everyday was great and we really enjoyed the entire itinerary. Louise done a fantastic job from our first contact until we returned home. Everything ran like clockwork. Our only comment was to do with the Fable hotel in Christchurch. It’s in a great location, central to everything, but they made a few mistakes that could easily be fixed. The breakfast they serve was cold and they put us in a queen room on our second stay over instead of a superior King that was booked. We highly recommend Fine Tours if your thinking of visiting New Zealand.

Read moreWe thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our driving tour through New Zealand. Stunning green landscapes, ice capped mountains and many rivers. Flying over snow topped mountains, cruising Milford Sound, Te Pa Tu cultural experience and Hobbiton were highlights. People were friendly and the food amazing! Our itinerary was carefully curated by Louise Hodge, who listened to our requests, made suggestions of things not to miss and supported us when wild weather required changes to our trip. The Fine Tours team was excellent, always available and helpful. We found the Fine Tours App to be very useful! Thanks to the whole team, we had a fantastic holiday!

Read moreWe can’t say enough about how professional and well-designed our trip was. Every detail was handled with precision, from the route, to the activities planned along the way, to the various transfers to and from boats, airports, etc. Christina was on top of the overall plan from start to finish, including adjustments due to weather, road conditions, and the like. The vehicles provided and the hotels along the way were top notch! We would recommend Christina and New Zealand Self Drive Tours without hesitation, and will definitely use them for our next trip to New Zealand. Many thanks for a job well done!
