Ninety minutes. One city. No wasted steps. If you have a few hours in Christchurch, off a ship at Lyttelton or on a stopover between one thing and the next, the usual advice is to pick a single sight and hope it was the right one. This walk is the other option: the centre of the city, the short way round, with someone who lives here doing the talking. Christchurch is not a city that shows you what it has always been. It shows you what it is becoming. In ninety minutes you will stand in front of a Gothic revival cathedral still marked by the 2011 earthquakes, then walk a few streets to a working cathedral built out of cardboard tubes. That gap, between the city that was and the city being built in its place, is the most interesting thing happening in New Zealand right now, and almost nobody is telling visitors about it properly. Your guide is a local. Expect the short, true version: the buildings, the stories behind them, and the parts that do not make the guidebooks.

Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown

Kari_I, Nov 2026

Most amazing tour with the BEST driver - Sam. I would go again! Stunning!

What an incredible day. To start with our driver Sam was THE BEST!! He was so kind and thoughtful, he explained everything really well. We stop about every 50 minutes for a bathroom. The views were breathtaking! My favorite was coming out of the tunnel and Sam out in the them music from Jurassic Park. It was so fitting and perfectly timed. We stopped for lots of photo stops. Saw Kia birds, Kakoe birds, penguins and seals on the boat tour. The lunch provided was delicious. Sam also had snacks and water in the bus for us. Couldn’t have been a more incredible day.

Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Day Trip from Auckland incl lunch

Lilian_C, Nov 2026

Worth it!

I travelled solo, but had the most awesome time with the group. Our driver and guide, Mike, was absolutely lovely and ensured we were well taken care of. He really went the extra mile. It was a day trip, but would loved it to last a little longer, that’s how good it was ☺️☺️

Milford Sound Flight and Cruise Tour from Queenstown

Ed_N, Nov 2026

Wow, what a fantastic...

Wow, what a fantastic tour! Had to wait a couple of days due to weather but it finally cleared up. Tanmay is a great, safe pilot, and had a lot of anecdotes to share and pointed out many landmarks. Views were absolutely stunning. Cruise was great too, that wind was freezing up top for the best views but the decks below are heated so can go back and forth. A little scary being up in the small plane for me, but everything was run so safely and professionally. Not that many tours I would take the time and money to do again but this one I want to go on again. Fantastic.

Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Tour from Auckland with Lunch

Maria_M, Nov 2026

Worth every dollar.

Experience description said WiFi on bus, but there is no WiFi on bus. The caves were a mind blowing, beautiful experience and Hobbiton was absolutely magical! I also wanted to point out that our driver was amazing! Knowledgeable, funny & a very safe driver. She made the tour extra fun.

Mitai Maori Village Cultural Experience in Rotorua

Maylanie_C, Nov 2026

I loved this...

I loved this experience! Everything was perfect from start to finish. You learn a lot about Maori culture there; it’s rich, fun, and done with a lot of humor ☺️ The dances, the ceremonies, the tattoos, but also the history and the importance of transmission. I was afraid of attending an experience that was too touristy, but I was won over from the start! The focus is really on sharing. The meal was hearty and delicious, with a vegetarian option. Sharing the table with people from all over the world is also fully part of the experience; it’s always pleasant to meet other travelers! I totally recommend it; you won’t be disappointed!

Milford Sound Coach and Cruise tour from Queenstown

Sowjanya_V, Nov 2026

We had a wonderful...

We had a wonderful experience with the Milford Sound coach and cruise tour booked through Viator. The journey was beautiful, the scenery was breathtaking, and the entire experience was well organised. The coach ride itself was a highlight, with plenty of stunning views along the way. Everything ran smoothly, making it a memorable day. Definitely worth experiencing if you’re visiting New Zealand!

Milford Sound Cruise

MorganFox_J, Nov 2026

Bucket list cruise. Awesome time.

We took the 11 am cruise and loved the fact that it was much quieter. Upon our return the terminal was packed with people and your buses. Take an earlier time if you can. The day trips from Queenstown and Te Anau can overwhelm from what I’ve read, and now I believe it. The captain of the Gem of the Sound was fantastic. Excellent commentary with great facts and also many quick witted quips that made me laugh. My children often wondered what was so funny… The cruise ship was also top notch. The photos of it on the booking site do not do the ship justice. Modern, clean, great facilities, friendly crew, very stable in the water if you don’t have great “sea legs” like I do. This was a bucket list cruise for me and I loved every second and would recommend Pure Milford any time!

Waitomo Glowworm Caves Guided Tour

Kallie_C, Oct 2026

Just our Cup of Tea

Thoroughly impressed with the experience here. Our guide "Cup of Tea" was knowledgeable, humorous, and charismatic. The caves themselves were magical, and our guide was kind enough to serenade us with a song written by his ancestor to demonstrate the acoustics of the cave. Short, sweet, and to the point. Coffee is great too.

Doubtful Sound Wilderness Day Cruise from Manapouri

Peter_E, Oct 2026

Doubtful Sound Is A Must See

This was an outstanding experience!! From the boat across Lake Manapouri , to the bus ride over Wilmot Pass, to the cruise of Doubtful Sound and back everything was exemplary. The beauty and grandeur of the mountain pass coupled with the majesty of the sound are indescribable with mere words. Our bus driver, Josh, kept us informed and entertained, the staff on both boats were exceptionally helpful and friendly. We particularly appreciated the food service on the Doubtful Sound cruise, which included hot beverages to order assorted cold beverages and premade sandwiches. On the advice local New Zealanders we chose the Doubtful Sound tour instead of Milford Sound. Doubtful Sound, while not as easy to get to, is larger and not as commercial as Milford. Ours was the only ship in the Sound. A truly enchanting day we will always remember.

Shotover River Extreme Jet Boat Ride in Queenstown

Rebecca_B, Oct 2026

Awesome ride and staff!

We had a fantastic ride with our jet boat pilot Joe. One of our group got a bad dose of motion sickness and vertigo, Joe realised he was unwell and dropped him off with his wife, before rhe ride finished. The staff were very lovely offering help and support. The rest of the group loved the ride! So much fun!
