We were so pleased we came with Grand Pacific Tours. Very well organised, personal service and we were treated as individuals not numbers. Provided us with a great introduction to New Zealand. All we had to do was turn up.

Loved the leather wallets and suitcases being collected. The coach was always immaculate, great seating arrangement and loved the single seats. Nothing was too much trouble for the coach captain.

This has been a fantastic tour enabling me to see the best of New Zealand in a relaxed, comfortable way. My knowledge of New Zealand has been vastly expanded and being in a small group has made it more special. So pleased I chose this tour; the coach, train rides, cruising – all excellent.

Very pleased with the experience as I had not been to NZ before and I found this G.P. tour was a relaxing way to do it - appropriately spaced comfort stops. Loved the fact that in most places – tables, seats etc were reserved for G.P. tour group.

Man that’s business class touring!!! Always clean and fresh – was just expecting a blinged up Hi Ace Bus!

World Class driver/tour director, world class coach and world class country. You cannot loose! I really enjoyed this tour. Oohh! World class tour company also. I was impressed by Head Office ability to quickly arrange alternate accommodation after flooding of the West Coast. It was very evident Head Office staff support their fellow staff out in the field.

A great trip, well organised, quality of hotels and meals were great. Best of all we had a very knowledgeable Coach Captain and the best coach. Great driver and very people orientated.

We enjoyed our holiday immensely. It was our first coach tour and we loved how we got to know most of the other travellers which would not have been so easy in a large group. We loved the seat rotation too. Plenty of breaks between destinations was another plus. Everything was well organised, down to the smallest details.
