Hi Christine,

Thanks for all your help!  We had a blast and were so impressed with the organization, the selection of hotels, experiences, etc.  I'm cc'ing Jon as he has our best photos. We will certainly recommend you to others!!

Thanks again,

Wonderful service, wonderful itinerary.... my tour was smooth and efficient. The routes chosen were wonderful with the right amount of time between traveling and staying.

Shelley was absolutely fantastic from the moment we got in touch. She planned an amazing honeymoon for us touring around beautiful New Zealand, it was fantastic and so stress free knowing that everything was taken care of. All of the accommodation was great and we stayed in some places we’d never have found ourselves. All the tours, trips, and activities were outstanding and everything ran exactly to plan. It’s tough to pick just one highlight, but the Doubtful Sound cruise was just epic. If you’re planning a trip to New Zealand, I couldn’t recommend First Light and Shelley highly enough!

Hi Christine, we had such a wonderful trip!

We were very pleased with the accommodations, cars and activities, plus your detailed instructions made everything so easy! I would certainly give you the highest recommendation. The highlights of the trip for me were the stay on Wahaike  and The Milford sound boat overnight.

 Thank you so much for arranging such a great vacation for us!

Cheers,

Hi Deb,

I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you personally for all of your efforts in helping to create our perfect holiday.

My reason for wanting to go to New Zealand was because my Mum used to always talk about going to New Zealand.  Mum passed away last year and never got the chance so this was my way of honoring her dream as well as my own.

Allan and I got to see and do things that we never thought we would and no holiday we take again will ever be as good as our trip to New Zealand. As requested, I have attached some holiday snaps.  Lots of snow in November was not something we were expecting but was a fabulous bonus!

Thanks again for all of your efforts.

We had been to New Zealand a long time ago for business, but only had a few days to get a taste for this incredible country. We had an idea of what we wanted to do when we had the opportunity to return. Jo Taylor worked with us to craft an itinerary that really was spot on. The accommodations were places we would never have found on our own, and they thought of all the details regarding activities, itinerary, transfers, etc. Hiring Jo, and the First Light team was a great decision for us!

We wanted to thank you for organizing our travel to New Zealand and Australia and I'll be back! Jo Taylor has selected the itinerary to meet our needs. Also, Jo Taylor was really helpful to reschedule weather related events during our journey.

The journey was great!

Allan and I could not more highly recommend First Light Travel. Our dealings with Deb Evans were first class. Deb's responses to all our questions were answered promptly and were always informative and helpful. As for our trip to beautiful New Zealand, it outshone all of our expectations. Both Al and I have ticked off so many dreams on our buckets lists! Allan with the beautiful golf courses he played and me seeing some magical waterfalls. The highlight of the trip for both of us was the flight into Milford Sound as was suggested by Deb. It was the most spectacular and breathtaking thing that either of us have ever done. Since our home, we have told all of our friends that they need to plan a holiday in beautiful New Zealand and would not hesitate to recommend First Light Travel to them to help plan their trip. Thank you so much Deb. Kind Regards

Judith planned the New Zealand trip for my dad and me. It was amazing. We enjoyed every part of it! The accommodations were more than perfect and they were located in the most beautiful places. We did have some trouble during our trip and the only thing we had to do was call First Light Travel. Judith, Anne and Jo were always there to help. We can’t thank you enough!

Hi Melissa,

We are just now getting back to normal from traveling so sorry for the delay, but we had the most amazing time of our lives! We couldn't have asked for a better honeymoon! You were beyond helpful and we appreciate your work in making everything run smoothly even with our last minute changes. We will definitely write a great review and I will personally tell everyone I know that they should do as we did traveling with First Light. When we can come back we will let you know!

Again thank you so much for all of your help in making our honeymoon the best that it could be and more!

Thank you,
