What people love about New Zealand Tours from Queenstown
- 3 Day Doubtful Sound Adventure Ex Queenstown
The overnight cruise was great. However, we were disappointed that one of the other tours was canceled. While we were refunded for the cancellation that was only from RealNZ. It still seemed like there was money paid from the overall package through Tour Radar that was not refunded.
- South Island Snow Safari in reverse
Amazing Tour...it is such a great way to discover the Aotearoa snow without the hassle. As New Zealand snow resorts are smaller than what I am used to in Europe, this tour gives you those opportunities to hit different slopes every day and in the meantime see some of the sights along the way. Best way to do a snow holiday in New Zealand in my opinion.
- Queenstown to Wellington Highlights - 7 Day Self Drive Tour
Everything was great with the except of the hotel accommodations in Wellington and Christchurch. The mattresses were absolutely awful. The beds were very springy and offered zero support. Woke up very sore each morning in those cities. Other than that, very very satisfied with Tour Radar.
