First Light Travel

"Danielle and the whole team at First Light Travel made our month long trek across both islands an enjoyable and well -planned trip. We were there during the 30 year Cyclone and even with the challenges that arose our trip was wonderful. I highly recommend using a travel agent and especially this company on a first visit to NZ. When our phones would only email (not call or text) the whole team worked to get our issues fixed: One issue was we were running late for Hobbiton (the evening tour and dinner). We had gotten ourselves lost and with little gas (always fill up on half tank if driving a lot and when it's available!). Even through our spotty internet/email First Light was able to connect with Hobbiton and when we rolled in 2 minutes past bus departure, there was a staffer ready with our tickets and ushering onto the bus, and not with a scowl, but a welcome! They knew all about our mishaps with the map/gas/travel and showed lots of grace, thanks to communication with First Light. We will use First Light again and could not be happier we did with this first trip to beautiful NZ."

"First light travel was an easy and helpful company to go through. They created a honeymoon for us that was the perfect balance of luxury, adventure, and natural beauty that Tasmania has to offer. The accommodation they booked was all amazing, as were the adventures and experiences they included in our itinerary. We will definitely be using them again"

"We recently came back from a fantastic two week trip around New Zealand planned by Michelle at First Light Travel. The itinerary was perfect for us with a mix of shorter and longer stays, giving us the chance to see highlights of both islands in two weeks. We had an amazing trip!"

"We called First Light because a friend had used their services in 2018. We are so glad we did. Michelle Srzich handled all the details of a 26 day trek across both South and North Islands of New Zealand. We stayed in first class accommodations, had wonderful excursions and quite an adventure. And...when our airlines canceled our flight home, First Light was right there to send a driver back to Auckland Airport and secure us a hotel room for two more nights! Our vacation was fun-tastic and worry free because of them. Highly recommend this company to everyone going to NZ. Great job, great customer service."

"Booking your trip with this agency is completely worth it! My wife and I decided to book our honeymoon trip to New Zealand through First Light Travel. Danielle had reached out to us promptly. We told her generally what we were looking for and she planned our trip not only to our expectations, but far exceeding them. You will get a first proposal before having to commit so you can make any modifications or changes to your itinerary. They take care of all the logistics once you arrive. They are incredibly knowledgeable and have excellent recommendations that we would not have found on our own. I was so amazed by the professionalism, communication and knowledge of the country by them. We had one problem we encountered during our trip due to weather and Danielle helped us adjust with ease. If you’re planning on taking a special trip, I highly recommend going through go First Light Travel. They took extremely good care of us and I really believe they care about their clients’ experiences. Everything planned for us gave us the feeling that that activity was hand selected to give us a magically memorable experience. Danielle put a great deal of time, effort and care into our trip and we were so grateful because it was so evident. I have no cons about booking through them. They’ll work with whatever budget you give them and execute your agreed proposal flawlessly. Highly recommend."
