This specialised day out with John was exactly what we were hoping for,and more. John was totally flexible in making our day relaxed and informative. John gave us the opportunity to spend more time at the Car museum and reduced time on other areas if necessary. We enjoyed his company and indeed everything that was included. This gave us a day that we could sit back and literally enjoy the ride.

Our guide was John and we had a great time with him. My parents have mobility issues and both use walkers. John was happy to help them about as needed. He took us to the Car museum, Chocolate shop, watched eels being fed and saw a couple kiwis. He was very nice and full of interesting information. He even made time to stop at a local brewery for us to try a few NZ beers. Much appreciated! He suggested a great lunch stop with delicious fish n chips. All in all, we had a wonderful day.

We booked a last minute cruise around New Zealand. By the time we booked, many of the shore excursions for Wellington were full. Fortunately, I was able to connect with John and book a tour with him for our brief stay in Wellington.
Wellington is a pretty sizeable city - not my preferential travel environment - more of a country/nature person. Naturally, I looked for an experienced travel company to get me out of the city and into the countryside as soon as possible! John took us to the Kapiti coast, to a wonderful lunch and out to a nature center. We enjoyed our day with John and appreciated his efforts to show us the best that Wellington has to offer.
Our stay in Wellington was very brief and thus, we did not have the ability to spend a lot of time away from the City, but John accommodated our needs perfectly by tailoring his regular full day tour to our reduced time constraints.
I fully recommend John and his tour company. Very easy to work with, very punctual and we a
