Travellers Testimonials and Reviews: First Light Travel

Hi Jo, We had a wonderful holiday, everything ran very smoothly largely due to your effort and expertise in putting our itinerary together for us. If anyone we know intend visiting New Zealand we won’t hesitate to recommend you to them. Apart from the spectacular scenery, the highlight of our holiday was the Lake Wanaka Island Nature Walk, and that was almost entirely due to our guide Chris. His unique character really makes the tour special. I have attached two pics taken on this island walk to show you how spectacular it is. 

Kind regards

We are back safe. Our travels went very smoothly and there were no hiccups in any of the planned bookings. Great job First Light Travel! Would love to recommend everyone going to New Zealand to go with you guys! I bumped into First Light through Trip Advisor and there were tons of reviews on them. Without a doubt, I emailed them and Jo replied. From there we had a discussion on how we can make our trip way better than what I had researched.I had to make this trip an amazing one because New Zealand was where I was about to
propose to my girlfriend.

They are polite and patience in giving us information on the New Zealand activities that we wanted to do. We had limited knowledge on how we can make our holiday more exciting. We Liaised with Jo and she gave us an amazing itinerary that went very smoothly. Jo was even concerned about us when one of the days we didn't get to our accommodation due to bad weather! It was pretty nice of them to go through the extra mile on this. Trust them in giving you the best itinerary for your needs. I have been travelling to a few places and to be honest, I was very happy and satisfied with their responses, their excellent service and this has got to be my number one choice.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for a really good tour, the guide did know a lot about the rainforest and nz history and was also very good with our group atmosphere. We were only 10 people (between 22-70 years old) which was really good. We were overwhelmed once more about the spectacular scenery NZ has to offer, Piha Beach is just stunning.

Thank You sooo much!!

Cheers,

Hi Chrissy,

We loved this trip! Being frequent travelers, it was the best we have had!

Everything was perfect: The timing in each place, The hotels (highlight to Rotorua ) and the Tours.

The country is fabulous with the nature, the people, etc... We would like to thank you Chrissy for all of it, without to know us (only by mail) you understood exactly our profile! Of course we'll recommend you to our friends at the first opportunity.

Next time: Fiji Islands

Once again, many thanks!

Very kind regards!

Hi Kasey,

First of all I would like to thank you a lot for preparing us such a great holiday for us in Australia. It was the best self-drive trip we ever experienced , the place was amazing, the accommodation especially the country side - In Philips Island, Malacoota, JarvisBay was fabulous. We really enjoyed ourselves and brought us back close after a long time we guys dint meet. The car by hertz was perfect for us fro the long distance and comfortable too, and the skydiving experience was such a adrenaline rush!!! 

Totally well planned vacation by you kasey , thanks again!!

First Light Travel truly enabled us to have a vacation of a lifetime in New Zealand! My husband & I were able to experience so much & made memories that will remain some of our favorites. Whether is was bungy jumping from Kawarau Bridge, kayaking Doubtful sound, trekking on Franz Josef glacier, or black water canyoneering/glow worm cave exploring, we felt alive, safe, & well cared for! 

Our coordinator, Jo, was so helpful in organizing our trip. We greatly appreciated the personal insight into New Zealand & the company's native feedback. Thank you First Light Travel for making all of our New Zealand dreams come true!

Due to First Light Travel we had an amazing experience in New Zealand! They know all the 'ins and outs' and made a package that was perfect for us. A lot of nice outdoor-activities such as kayaking, rafting, horse-riding and exciting hikes.
Our contact with Judith - prior to and during our trip - was perfect.
We'll be back!

Thanks to Shelley and First Light Travel for an amazing holiday in New Zealand! From the start, my experience with First Light could not have been easier. I simply mentioned how long I planned to stay and the types of activities I was looking for and voila! Shelly put together an itinerary that even had a native Kiwi I met on my holiday impressed.

I had an amazing, grassroots experience of this beautiful country filled with adventurous activities and unbelievable views! I highly recommend First Light Travel for anyone considering planning a holiday in New Zealand.
