  • Hugo V (MEX) 7 Day North Island Explorer Tour | Travelled 2024

    We had a great experience in New Zealand! This time we visited the North Island and was great. Everything went as planned, we just followed the itinerary and had not problem during the whole trip. Hotels were perfect for us, everything within our budget and with some spare time to do extra activities on the road.

    We had a great time in Whaikeke Island, had fun in Hobbiton, had a relaxation time in Rotorua, learned a lot about Maori culture and were amazed by the Waitomo glowworm caves.

    Thanks to NZ Driving Holidays, we experienced the adventure of a lifetime! Their professionalism and attention to detail, made the entire planning process easy! It was fun to just immerse ourselves in the local culture and tour at our own pace, with the guidance of a company that truly knows the lay of the land. I traveled with my husband, sister, and brother-in-law and the itinerary crafted by NZ Driving Holidays was perfectly tailored to each person's preferences and interests. Every detail, from the choice of scenic routes and uniquely amazing adventures to the selection of charming accommodations, showcased their understanding of each destination and dedication to providing an unforgettable experience for each of us. Not only did they plan the route and accommodations, but they also supplied insider tips, and detailed recommendations of attractions along the way.
