We connect you with locals

We live here. We know our country. We’ve spent years developing relationships and partnering with the best locals who offer unique and exceptional experiences. You get to meet these fabulous locals and see New Zealand through their eyes. On every tour, you’ll meet and play with some of our queer friends too. It’s a win-win!

Best vacation ever! Debbie did a fabulous job of showing us the beauty of New Zealand. She insured that we all were comfortable, having fun, and making sure that we all had what we needed. We made lots of new friends and I hope sometime to go again with Debbie and see more of the country!

We were impressed with how much fore-thought (and continued thought) went into this trip. The amount of concern for the well-being of every person on the tour was exceptional. The quality of the accommodations and meals was top notch and the varied experiences on both islands were exciting and wonderful. The small companies you worked with made each adventure fantastic. New Zealand is as beautiful as everyone says it is and this definitely was a trip of a life-time!
