Summer was the best (she told me to say that , but it is true. She always had everything organized, timely, communicated very well. She looked out for and took care of everyone and made everyone feel special. We have a trip lined up for Japan, that leader has there work cut out for them to meet the expectation Summer has provided for us . We look forward to our next trip with Intrepid.

Perfect balance between planned activities and free time so there is freedom to explore through more physical activities, or relaxing and enjoy the amazing scenery and food. Highly recommend this amazing trip.

It was such an amazing trip that I got emotional when I was leaving and shed tears after saying goodbye. The New Zealand Premium tour was the experience of a lifetime. Everything was perfectly thought out and organized. Each day was like being in a new little world! I had an absolute blast with the fellow travelers and our amazing, knowledgeable guide, Summer. If you are considering this trip-GO FOR IT. I wish I could do it all over again. thank you intrepid for the lifelong memories!!! I can’t wait to do another trip with you again one day!!!

Good tour spectacular scenery well organised. Detour because of road closure was well handled. Good guide very friendly approachable flexible knowledgeable Good variety of activities. On the whole we met well informed people who delivered their knowledge very well. Milford Sound was a big highlight. Great emphasis on biodiversity. Have come away from tour with very positive feelings about New Zealand the people, their history and traditions, their excellent food quality, their care for the environment, people flora fauna and the country’s traditions. Would recommend highly.

The grandeur of New Zealand and our excellent tour leader made this a memorable trip.

An excellent itinerary that covered a variety of landscapes and many differing and interesting experiences, including learning more about what is being done to protect NZ's natural species and biodiversity. Our tour leader/driver Michelle did an excellent job, which added to the overall trip experience.

The South Island tour led by Michelle was fantastic and exceeded our expectations. With a small group our individual needs were accommodated when needed. The itinerary and accommodations were top rate. We had a good mix of personal and group time.

This was a phenomenal tour that provides the perfect balance between thoughtfully-organized group activities and ample time for self-guided adventures. If you're looking to check the 'must-sees' of the South Island off your bucket list in the company of a rockstar tour guide and fairly luxurious accommodations, I would strongly consider hopping on board.

An amazing experience led superbly by passionate, knowledgeable, experienced guides. An inaugural trip in a small group, went without a hitch. Stunning scenery, food and experiences. Miss the group already, the friendly guides added so much.

The tour was very well planned out and the activities were awesome. The pace of the tour was good and amount of planned vs free time was just nice. This was our first Intrepid tour but definitely won't be our last!

Intrepid again provided a terrific experience. In particular our leader, Grant , was wonderful. New Zealand is not to be missed and we’ll be back next year! Well done Intrpid and all!!

The tour on the South island is incredible. So many amazing views and experiences. Our guide was fantastic, keeping us organized and informed, while driving us safely through the mountainous terrain. There are great walks and beautiful town to see along the way. We had many beautiful look out stops. There was plenty of free time as well, to do your own thing. A great vacation. Highly reccomend it!

New Zealand is an absolutely stunning country. Anne, our guide showed us all its magic

The Premium South Island trip was an adventure of a life time. Excellently planned, Annie was a fantastic tour guide and worth every minute she spent on the trip

Amazing trip of the South Island. Our trip leader, Annie, was super knowledgeable about the history, culture and environment of the amazing country. Saw such a variety of landscapes, from alpine regions to beaches to fjords. Learnt a lot about the Maori culture and the unique wildlife of New Zealand. Would recommend.

A truly wonderful trip completely made by our extremely professional and knowledgeable tour guide/driver/ organiser, Wayne. Hotels and food mediocre but scenery amazing, The itinerary needs updating as time was wasted and many additional miles travelled in a squashed minibus visiting pointless now empty former attractions. Admin and communication from Intrepid needs improving.
