Mar 15 - Mar 28, 2025
Just returned home from two very exciting and truly intoxicating weeks in New Zealand. The utter perfection of my itinerary, planned by my local specialist Michelle from Once Upon a Trip, allowed me to relax and flow from one amazing experience to the next.
Michelle devised an itinerary based on my desire to see as much natural beauty as possible and managed to stay within a reasonable budget. She created a two week schedule that did not overwhelm and facilitated my ability to travel solo from the southern city of Queensland on the South Island to the northern city of Auckland on the North Island. I flew over glaciers to magnificent fjords, took boat trips on fabulous lakes, cycled through spectacular rainforests, visited botanical gardens, museums and cultural performances.
Every activity she chose for me was top notch, every accommodation fit my needs, driving directions, check-in information, timing, and general recommendations were perfect and completely reliable. I could not have asked for a more incredible trip. Thank you Michelle, Monika and KimKim!
Hotel Review
The simplest of all my accommodations and yet so rich in warmth and friendliness. My B & B hosts took an active interest in my itinerary, offered suggestions and significant improvements and provided a delicious made to order breakfast every morning.
Hi Linda
Thank you so much for this review and for sharing your incredible photos of your time here. We did manage to fit in lots of highlights and I am thrilled to see it all worked out so well . We do try really hard to make sure the plans all coordinate together perfectly so hopefully people see the value in using a local agent for this. It was fun working with you to put the trip together and I wish you happy future travels with Kimkim!
