We didn't know what to expect on our trip to the South Island in New Zealand, but our travel agent did an amazing job in planning our vacation. We had a few requirements and while we changed our minds a few times along the way, he was always quick to respond - especially given the 17 hour time differential!
Our travel agent made us feel so comfortable and at ease, that our trip transitioned from a "guided tour with a local" to a "road trip with a friend". We were keen on photos, so he always ensured that we had our photo opportunities, while sharing knowledge of our surroundings and the culture.
If we wanted to add or amend our itinerary, he never made a fuss, simply went with the flow - maybe it's the kiwi way, but definitely a great trait to have as a tour guide!
I believe this agent really listened to our requests because we were able to check off all of the boxes that were on our wish list! He was also a great calming force during my bungee jumping excursion! We even got to experience his local rugby team with him - another impromptu add on and one that I will always cherish. Rugby for the 1st time in Christchurch is a great way to get indoctrinated.
Although we were on the other side of the world - he did an amazing job in making us feel like we were at "home" with a much better view - the kiwi view! I'm already trying to figure out how to get back to the north island with this travel agent and his company!

The Tongariro Crossing was amazing. It is well worth the strenuous nature of the hike. The views were amazing. We had near perfect weather with partly clear skies and comfortable temperature for hiking.

Geoff - We got the gift! Thank you for the lovely coasters!
We have had a fantastic time here. I can say without a doubt my number 1 experience was the canopy tours. We are closing out the trip with a relaxing harbor tour which is good as we are both pretty tired. It was a great trip.
Thanks again for putting such a fantastic experience together for us!

Geoff is an awesome guy! - and his Travel Agency. He worked with me to plan this trip over 3 1/2 years ago. Due to COVID it was postponed twice and, as time went on, I made changes and he adapted and re-worked the itinerary excellently.
He made great suggestions and listened to my ideas with a great sense of humor and seriousness, booking the perfect Bed & Breakfast Inns in Christchurch and Lake Te Anau and other pristine locations.
The tour he booked for me to see Hobbiton was the best choice, including a delicious lunch buffet!
There was no hassle over prices, they were very reasonable and kept within my budget.

The 5 week New Zealand journey arranged for us by Geoff and Libby at Real New Zealand Tours was amazing. They did an excellent job of listening to our interests and travel preferences, making changes to our itinerary until we were satisfied. It was great to have someone in New Zealand available by phone whenever needed during out trip. Geoff responded quickly to all inquiries before and during our travel.
New Zealand is an amazing country - stunning landscapes constantly change over short distances of travel, opportunity for adventure throughout the country and the unique flora and fauna.
The whole country, North and South islands were amazing. Favorites were Abel Tasman National Park, Mt Cook, Tongariro Alpine Crossing, Milford Sound, Queenstown paragliding and fly fishing south of Taupo. We enjoyed having an itinerary that allowed us to explore areas on our own vs having every minute planned.
