Travellers Testimonials and Reviews: First Light Travel

From the very first email from FLT offering to work on the itinerary to the whole holiday experience, was the smoothest, most convenient and awesome experience. NZ by itself is the MOST AMAZING place on the planet. With friends at FLT it undoubtedly was a once in a lifetime family holiday.

Thank you First Light Travel! You took the difficult task of arranging two weeks of adventure travel for our group of discerning travelers and provided a safe, fun, and well-designed itinerary for us! We found it the perfect mix of activity and downtime to prevent us from burning out. We drove through both North and South Islands, and had just the right amount of time in between stops and activities. Well done! We couldn't have done this on our own and came close to the amount we packed into such a short time. We are forever grateful!

THANK YOU!

I can not say enough good things about First Light Travel and Chrissy Sun, the planner who assisted me in planning my incredible New Zealand 14-day self-drive adventrue! Being under a time crunch to plan my vacation, Chrissy understood and quickly put my mind at ease. After giving her a vague wishlist of what I would like to see and do, she quickly went to work and planned out all the details. She ensured there were no questions or concerns left unanswered before I was scheduled to depart. Chrissy planned an adventure that covered the North and South Island. It was quite the ambitious schedule, but I knew I was up for the challenge. Some incredible highlights of my adventure were the Waitomo Glow Worm Caves, bungee jumping, tandem skydiving, glacier hiking, wine tours, whale watching, experiencing Maori culture, and that is the tip of the iceberg.

I will definitely book again with First Light Travel and highly recommend them and Chrissy Sun to help you plan your New Zealand adventure!!

First Light Travel’s put together an amazing trip for myself and a group of friends. Sofie did an absolutely fantastic job planning the trip of a lifetime. She did so well to work within our budget, interests, and style, but also offered helpful suggestions or not to miss excursions we wouldn't have known about otherwise. Everything was so super using First Light Travel and Sofie, even when planned activities were cancelled due to weather Sofie quickly always fixed it for us. It was an absolute blast of a trip and I would recommend Sofie and First Light Travel to anyone planning a trip to New Zealand.

This was the best experience of our life. Dawn at first light travel helped to make our honeymoon one of a kind. From the relaxing days on Hahei Beach to the adventurous hiking through Tongariro National Park, and bungy jumping off Kawarau bridge in Queenstown, she helped to make everyday hit a highpoint and check off something on our bucket list! We will be back to visit New Zealand soon, what a beautiful place!

Hi Sofie

We had a fantastic time in NZ as usual.  I have just sent through a small selection of photos from some of our activities.

All tours were amazing and I must say the twilight tour of the Kauri trees near Opononi was something else.  Our guide, a Maori lady, told us all the stories, sang songs, said prayers, etc.  It was goose bumps all the way.  Canyoning was amazing, horse riding something we will never forget.  Everything was wonderful.

Thanks again for all your help in organising.

Kind Regards

We were a little lost planning our first trip to NZ, until we connected with First Light Travel. Chrissy was very patient in understanding our preference and customised the itinerary accordingly – Hassle-free! The entire trip went smoothly and we enjoyed ourselves very much!
