Traveler Reviews

From my very first contact with Richard Bialy in February 2019 to the actual tour in March 2020, his commitment to working together was beyond compare. I have organized tours world-wide and must say Richard made it easy to 'go outside the wheelhouse' with this extraordinary day. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Kudos to you, Richard. Till we return to Wellington!

Great tour of Wellington with our guide, Ray. He took us all over the area, showing us the beat vantage points and even some rarely seen places/things. Got us a reserved table at a popular seaside restaurant, we had a great time!

Ray our tour guide and driver was incredible! He was not only so engaging but well connected. The only downside was the 1 1/2 hour bus ride from the cruise port to Wellington and then back again!!! It would have been helpful to have known this before we booked this tour. The tour of Wellington only took 45 minutes total so it was a long day, although the scenery was awesome.

Ray picked us up promptly in a nice clean comfortable van. He had us introduce ourselfs, and by the end with the fellow passengers, we were like family. We were given a great tour of Wellington. Everything from lookout points to gardens with the City in-between. Ray was knowledgeable and he made it fun. Five Stars!!
