Fantastic coastal walks, beautiful islands and the icing on the cake was the Tongariro Crossing which our group completed in perfect weather.

Fantastic-you read the description, you think you are ready and the trip is even better! No way would I have tried the various activities without the Active guides, they made it seamless and fun!

We had previously done the Rimu trip which we loved and were inspired to return to see the North Island. The trip had many of the same attributes as the Rimu - great energetic and informative guides, full on activity with a focus on the enjoyment of the outside world. There was probabaly less hiking than Rimu and more variety in the activities - wait for the snorkelling at Poor Knights (best snorkelling ever!) Black Water Rafting which finishes the trip on a high. We were a small intimate group and that added to the pleasure of the trip, If you like the outdoors, whatever your age, are generally fit and up for things then Active New Zealand won't disappoint. Great value for money too.

The trip not only provided us with wonderfully diversified hikes and activities in the beautiful scenery of the North Island, but the incredible information provided to us by our guides gave us the background and understanding of the history and culture of New Zealand. It was an intellectually, as well as physically, rewarding experience.

This trip surpassed almost every expectation I had! I tried not to pay attention to details ahead of time, preferring to be surprised by what each different day had to offer! I had researched what company to travel with and Active Adventures always rose to the top of my list and seemed to have the most variety in what they offered. The guides, Andrew and Amanda were quite a team! They worked together seamlessly to make everyone happy and I am not sure that they ever slept. Andrew should be a history professor!
I am thrilled that I did the longest trip offered on each Island as there is so much to see and do. Lots of driving and understandably so as we covered a lot of ground!

Awesome trip. Andy and Amanda went above and beyond the call of duty. Andy was so informative about the North Island and such a good sense of humour. Amanda paid attention to my dietary needs, she even found Dairy Free Chocolate!!!!!
Both had a way of prodding one ever onward without being intrusive, demanding, or adding pressure to your experience.

Thanks so much to Andrew and Amanda for the marvelous time you gave us in New Zealand. We so appreciate your guidance and patience for the not real speedy Grandmas from Canada. Loved all the fun and adventures and the big highlight was hiking Tongariro Crossing. Spectacular! I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants an adventure.
