Explore New Zealand on a Flying Kiwi tour

I feel really bad as I went on this trip a few years ago however, since the pandemic, I've seen images of NZ and it reminded me of my amazing experience. I really can't praise Flying Kiwi highly enough. Everyone from the staff who helped me with my online booking to everyone throughout the 3 week trip. You really feel like a family, everyone is so nice and welcoming. I have too many highlights to mention. NZ is one of the most breathtaking places I've ever visited. When we are past the Covid-19 pandemic please book a place and go. You won't regret it.

What our other guests have said

It was a privalige to have Chris as our tour manager. His knowledge, sense of humour, and attention to detail, made our tour a wonderful experience. All our group gelled together from the start and he took our humour and antics very well.

David, Distant Journeys client, United Kingdom

Just completed a Gate 1 tour with your coach driver, Tommy Sampson. I have been in many coaches and Tommy is by far the best driver I have ever had. Outstanding in every area. A true asset and ambassador to your company. You are truly blessed to have him as your employee. (January 2020)

Greg Forbis, Gate 1 Client, USA

Peter was a very safe and skilled driver. He remained calm at all times and had a great sense of humour.

Package tours are simply a way to buy the airfare, accommodations, and other elements of your trip (such as car rentals, airport transfers, and sometimes even activities) at the same time and often at discounted prices.

Several big online travel agencies - Expedia, Travelocity, Orbitz, Site59, and Lastminute.com - also do a brisk business in packages. Qantas Vacations USA (tel. 800/641-8772 in the U.S., or 310/322-6359; fax 310/535-1057) and Qantas Vacations Canada (tel. 800/268-7525 in Canada; fax 416/234-8569) offer good deals as well.

“A fantastic tour to watch the B & I Lions play in New Zealand. A huge array of activity options allowed us the chance to see more of the country than I could ever have hoped and we had a great group of people to travel with, including guides who genuinely knew the country and its people. The trip was superb value for money and incredibly well planned. I can’t wait to see all the new tours you have planned, both involving rugby and outside of it!”

“I joined the Global Tours Direct British Lions 2017 Tour to NZ from Hong Kong recently and it was a superb tour. It was well organised in regards to all aspects from the flights, transportation from the airport , accommodation and the transportation from Wellington to Auckland via Lake Taupo and Rotorua. I look forward to my next rugby tour with Global Tours Direct.”

“Can’t speak highly enough of the really well-organised tour we had with Global Tours in New Zealand. The organisation and planning was excellent and in comparison to other similar tours represented great value for money. Would recommend to friends and look forward to South Africa in 4 years time!”

“Having now had the pleasure of touring with this company on two British & Irish Lions Tours I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They not only offer fantastic value for money and include loads of things in their itineraries they also offer the personal touch, and do the utmost to please. They knock spots off the big boys.”

Thank you Tracey. We had such a wonderful trip to the states and your organisation once again was faultless. It all ran like clockwork and I was so pleased with the end result. The performances went well and overall was such a fantastic experience for the girls.

I have dealt with Tracey Schwass for several years. Her company is easily one of the most professional that I have dealt with. Travel needs are organised in a smooth and friendly manner. I would highly recommend her company to organise your tour.

Tracey, Thank you again for your patience and hard work with organising a great tour. I know it has been extremely busy for you lately; however you still make me feel like your number one client.

Dear Tracey, we arrived home early this morning, feeling very tired but very happy. We had a fantastic time in Australia. I would like to thank you very much for all that you have done for us. Firstly, many thanks for your patience and understanding early on in the organisation of the trip. I appreciate your quick responses when I was unsure of how things were going and what I needed to do. It was certainly great to have you around to advise and guide me. I also appreciate you coming to meet us at the airport. It was good to see a face to the person who helped us so well. Tracey, Thank you, you have been fantastic so from all the boys in the team, Mick and myself, we really appreciate all you have done for us. All the best.
