Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I travel to NZ for 8 years and finally this Italian lady was able to explain and show me the importance and beauty of this country and especially the Maori influence ..what a shame that I haven’t done this tour earlier.."
"Gaby was extremely knowledgeable about Christchurch and tailored the tour to our interests ..excellent"
"Gaby was wonderful!! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the South Island. The restaurants & food we stopped for were varied & delicious. It may have 4 KM total walking but we stopped enough at restaurants and city sites that it was a lovely 3 hours. "
"We had an excellent, detailed tour of the central Christchurch area with Gaby … and came away with a much better understanding of both the challenges and victories the city has experienced over the years, especially after the 7.2 earthquake in 2011. Gaby was informative, friendly, outgoing and he was thoughtfully prepared to talk about his city. My wife and I would rate Gaby a full ten stars and highly recommend him to folks looking for an excellent tour of Christchurch. "
"We had such a great time on our tour with Keryn. We had great food and great conversation as well. Keryn shared so much about the city, history, food and life in Christchurch. It’s like having a friend in the city. "
"Keryn gave us a wonderful tour of Christchurch - we got the essential history and then a wonderful food tour "
"Our guide (Keryn) in Christchurch was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly and chatty, making the tour feel personal and engaging. Not only was her knowledge excellent, but she went above and beyond by helping us plan a perfect itinerary for the rest of our afternoon after we parted ways. Her recommendations were spot-on and really enhanced our visit. Highly recommend her for a fantastic and insightful guide around CC. "
"Keryn gave us an outstanding half day tour of Christchurch. She keyed into our interest in architecture and city planning and gave us great insight about the history of the area and the impacts of the earthquakes on life & rebuilding of the city/area. She also gave us great recommendations for places to eat lunch and visit after our time with her - places we would not have found in our we wished we could have spent more time in Christchurch to continue enjoying her suggestions. We highly recommend this tour and particularly Keryn as your tour guide."
"This tour with Daiane was the best way to start my adventures in Auckland. As I just arrived in town the previous day, Daiane’s insights and recommendations were extremely valuable. Although this wasn’t a food tour, she did show me some of the best restaurants and showed me some websites that would help me make reservations and gain more information into the local food scene. She was knowledgeable about everything; local history, hiking, transportation, shops, art galleries, theatre, markets, parks, etc. I especially appreciated her friendliness and personality. I highly recommend her. "
"Keryn was delightful to spend 2 hours with and very knowledgeable about Christchurch and the events of 2011 She gave a locals view in a very fair and balanced way and gave a very good balance of detail and interesting facts We learned tremendous amount in 2 hours"
