Most recent Grand Pacific reviews
Whilst New Zealand in itself was spectacular, diverse and breathtaking, the curated activities & excursions combined with the wide range of optional extras, which dovetailed seamlessly into the tour, made the whole journey even more memorable and enjoyable. Accommodation standards and food quality were uniformly excellent and the extra level of care & attention we received, e.g. bags taken to and from our rooms, early or priority entries into attractions and the high level of relevant & interesting information from Craig meant that the tour was totally stress & hassle free.
Our small group of 20 bonded beautifully over the holiday allowing us to spend quality time together but also for individuals & couples to explore independently. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Grand Pac involved in compiling this excellent tour, but with a special mention for Craig, in recognition not only of all the hard work we saw him do but the mountain of work he did behind the scenes - his professionalism, patience & humour were deeply appreciated. We will have no hesitation in recommending Grand Pacific to our friends & family. This trip will live in our memories for a very long time.
