Customer Comments from Margaret and Bill Atkinson, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada

Our trip was as close to a 'ten' as you could imagine and in fact, it might have been a 'ten' if we had got to Milford Sound. Despite how great Cath is - she has no control over the weather - as skiers, we know that this is fact.
To have a Driver/Guide was perhaps one of the smartest decisions that we have ever made. Then to have someone like Cath made us look like genii!!!  Her upfront help in planning the trip was done in a prompt, helpful and customer focused manner. When we got to New Zealand, her immediate demeanor made us feel like we had known her for a long time. Her knowledge of New Zealand and its customs and history was extremely helpful and interesting and her expertise in the wine and food industry was 'second to none'. THe B & B's were terrific and Cath's driving skills got us to places that any normal person would shudder in their boots. There is much more that could be said but hopefully, you get the message that we loved your country and especially, Cath.
