Luxury New Zealand Travel Agent Review, 3-Day Kayak & Walk in Abel Tasman National Park, Scenery, Food & Tours

Our travel planner from the tour company did such a great job planning our family New Zealand trip!  We went for 2 weeks over the Christmas and New Year holidays, and while I was trying to determine which travel agency to use, she was the only agent I spoke with that inquired about how our family would like to celebrate those actual holidays.  To me that conveyed her desire to plan a trip that was tailored to us, rather than simply giving us whatever the typical two-week trip is.  After getting a rough itinerary together, we worked to tailor it even further to include particular destinations and activities that we wanted.  This was also done a pretty tight schedule, as were were quite late in booking the trip and a lot of lodgings and activities were filling up.  Despite that, she found us great places to stay with plenty of room for a family of 5, and the activities we planned resulted in the trip of a lifetime.  She also provided great recommendations for restaurants and places to stop during our drives between destinations.
In addition to the planning of the trip, I also really appreciated the responsiveness of our planner and her associate during our actual travels.  I emailed them a few different times with questions, and despite it being a busy holiday time, I always received a response within minutes.  This was particularly helpful when we were trying to determine if a road closure would extend one of our drives from 1.5 hours to 11 hours--luckily it did not!
