We decided on the plane going home that when friends ask us, "What was your favorite part", we were going to say. "This has been the best vacation as a couple in our lives!"

I think the balance between physical activity, culture, and free time was just right. The people I met on the trip were amazing. I would definitely go on another trip with Active NZ!

Our trip to the Galapagos was amazing. We did not stop for one minute (OK - maybe 30 minutes but only for 1 day!). The diversity of landscape, vegetation, species created learning moments on a constant basis. This trip is not for the weak or faint of heart but it is a trip that everyone should take sometime during their life. thanks.....

After going on the Kauri the week before, I found it great to see new plants and animals on the South Island. We stayed in remote areas that really made the trip flexible. I could not stay for the whole trip, therefore the Active NZ staff gave me a great deal on half the trip!

Beyond expectations. Relaxed but active. Pepo and Zambo ran a tight, but fun ship, and their knowledge, kindness, and tolerance of gringoes were key to success.

The two things I loved most about the Weka were the introduction it provided to the most wonderful, changing and unspoilt country that is New Zealand's South island. And it also provided a personal challenge - cycling 100 km a day over high passes, on some tough tracks and in a range of weather conditions was, for me hard. But the sense of achievement at having done it, is immense, and enables me to look back on the holiday with both pleasure and satisfaction.

Loved the itinerary and guides on this trip. Beautiful scenery, lots of different activities and never boring. The food was amazing. Never thought I could gain 10lbs on an ACTIVE trip!

The trip was awesome. Besides the wonderful scenery, Magnus & Lofty exceeded expectations. I had grossly overestimated my level of fitness (I had a really rough Fall and my training suffered) so I really appreciated the encouragement Lofty & Magnus gave me and loved it that they were willing to let me not bike the whole distance like nearly everyone else did. Since I am mainly a road cyclist I did not like the bike I was furnished. It was heavy uncomfortable and did not fit but getting to see places that weren't accessible on a road bike was FANTASTIC. I feel that I saw almost everthing on the South Island that was there and doing so on the bike was wonderful. I wil recommend this trip to any of my friends that plan to com to NZ. Active trips have no wasted time!

We had a wonderful time on our Kauri Trip. Grant and Heather are awesome guides and the scenery was beautiful. The Alpine crossing is a great hike with wonderful views, being able to soak in the spa afterwards a nice touch. Thanks for the great memories.

Had a wonderful week on the North Island starting with a swim in the ocean, then plenty of hiking, black water rafting and great fun on the mountain bikes. Our group got on extremely well and our guide, Grant, was an ablsoute joy in the way he introduced us to your beautiful country and its culture past and present

I came away with tremendous pride in my performance, a welcome relief from the anxiety I felt before landing in New Zealand. My last minute decision to join Active New Zealand Rimu gave me little time to bring my fitness level to where I imagined it should be. My guides and members of our group were very encouraging and helpful so I was able to complete this adventure in fine form.
The magical, mystical weather during the Angelus Circuit hike was so calming and inspiring.
I focused on the eye-popping beauty rather than the effort. The tasty, hot meals at the conclusion of each chilly backpack day was a reward beyond measure.
Our guides DK, Ele and Magnus were fun, so free with their knowledge of our surroundings, excellent team mates to each other, tireless in their effort to please us and I think instrumental in bringing our group to the status of "family".
The hiking, cycling and kayaking gave us perfect opportunities to explore New Zealand from so many vantage points. We not only saw the spectacular variety in environments we felt them through our feet, our butts and our upper bodies. We smelled the smells, touched the plants, walked through the rivers, and joyfully celebrated the occasional sunny day.
This was a total experience, unlike any I have had in previous adventures. Absolutely outstanding in every way!! Thank you DK, Ele and Magnus. Carolyn Adam

An amazing trip! Fabulous scenery and blessed with good weather. Great group and I can't imagine having any better guides than DK and Elle. Some tough hikes, but terrific rewards at the end. A very diverse trip with lots to see and do. Loved the Kiwi culture and fun loving people. Great food and drink as well. Please send group picture from Admiral Creighton's as well. Thanks.
