The top outdoors destination with tons of refreshing countryside and national parks. The people are so friendly and really take you under their wing – one family in Wanaka showed me all of the best local cycle routes.

We had such a wonderful holiday. Katie put together a brilliant itinerary, which we tweaked a little in places, and the accommodation she chose was first class. She gave us great recommendations of activities and the whole trip went smoothly. Timings worked well between destinations because she had good knowledge of New Zealand, and the driving distances, car changes, ferry crossings, meeting points for activities were all easily achievable.
