A tailor-made trip across both islands
In April 2023, a group of four from California travelled the North and South Islands on a trip Emma planned with them, with a driver-guide on each island.

What they wanted
A group of four from Santa Barbara, California, wanted to see both islands of New Zealand on a private trip. At home they drive on the right, so a driver-guide made sense.
What we arranged
Emma planned the itinerary with them, taking the time to understand what each of them was interested in. On each island they had their own driver-guide. The trip included the places to stay, private experiences and dinners along the way.
In their words
The entire trip was seamlessly planned, and every detail exceeded our expectations.
As travelers from a country with traffic on the opposite side of the road, having a driver tour guide was truly a blessing.
