Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Our South Pacific travel agent designed a wonderful itinerary for us. She was knowledgeable, patient, cooperative, and made several changes at our request. She did a super job with all of the travel arrangements:

- shuttles were always waiting for us at the airports and were on time picking us up at the hotels

- the hotels were first rate and in great locations

- the tours were fantastic

We were pleased with the price of the trip to Australia and New Zealand. I would definitely recommend this agency and would use it again.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

The scenery in New Zealand is breath-taking.
Queenstown is gorgeous. It snowed 2 days before we arrived so the mountains surrounding the city were snow-covered. Lovely view from our hotel balcony
Our guided day hike on the Routeburn Track was exactly what we needed after the long flights. It rained the day we visited Milford Sound, but that gave us more waterfalls to view.
We were in Wellington for ANZAC Day. We atched the parade and enjoyed the other festivities.
One of the highlights of the entire trip was seeing 2 kiwis and 2 tuataras on the night tour of Zealandia.
Sydney Opera House is definitely worth the trip to Australia. The inside is even more beautiful than the outside. We were able to get tickets to a performance while we were there.
The day trip to the Blue Mountains was incredible. The guide was terrific!
We stayed in Palm Cove when we went to the Great Barrier Reef. It's a beautiful, peaceful resort town with lots of good food. Would like to go there for a week.
Loved the vibrant feeling and great places to walk in Brisbane and the beautiful Gold Coast.
Kangaroo Island and Coober Pedy were definitely worth visiting. Both have their own uniqueness.
Melbourne is also beautiful and has very good food and coffee.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I would try to spend more time in both countries. We stayed 31 days, but wish I could spare (and afford) a couple months.
