Travel Review: Luxury New Zealand Honeymoon, Blenheim, Te Anau, Waitomo, Rotorua, Doubtful Sound Cruise, Rafting, Wine Tasting

We had such an amazing trip!! 

Our travel company initially proposed an amazing trip packed full of experiences.  We worked with them to scale back a bit because it was our honeymoon and they recognized we wanted to have some downtime to relax and explore on our own a bit too.  We ended up with a perfect balance of activities / adventure and unplanned time to explore.

What impressed us most was the travel company's reaction to the fall 2016 earthquake in Christchurch.  Our itinerary had us taking a train to Christchurch and spending some time there, but the earthquake knocked out the train tracks and the company contacted us immediately to start working through alternatives, as the repairs were not expected to be made before our visit.  We very much appreciated this proactivity, as we likely would've discovered this while we were in NZ if we'd planned the trip on our own.  Our agent and her team were great!
