Explore New Zealand: 8-Day Luxury Trip for $30,000 – Ultimate Travel Experience

This trip to New Zealand really made me feel like I chose the right way from start to finish 🙌
We didn’t join a large tour group, nor did we plan everything ourselves like travel experts. Instead, we found a custom travel planner who tailored a route just for the two of us, with a private car and a Chinese-speaking driver 🚗.

We got to decide how the itinerary was arranged!
To be honest, at first, I was a bit hesitant, wondering if it would be too expensive or if we might get scammed. But now that we’re back, all I can say is: It was worth it! Really, it was so worth it!
🧳 Just the two of us, no sharing rides or tours
It was just my boyfriend and me, plus the driver, in one car, taking us around.

We could put our luggage anywhere, sit wherever we wanted, and stop whenever we felt like it. Taking photos, buying coffee, or changing the route on the fly was all okay. It really felt like we were “cheating” on our trip 😆
The driver was a Chinese-speaking guide, super reliable and great at taking photos 📷.

He was also very humorous and easy to get along with, like having an extra friend to hang out with.
🏨 The hotel arrangements were also very thoughtful
In Queenstown, we stayed at a lake-view hotel, where the balcony overlooked the entire Lake Wakatipu 🌊. Waking up and opening the curtains in the morning was breathtaking.

In Lake Tekapo, we stayed in a room where you could lie in bed and watch the stars 🌌. It’s not an exaggeration; the Milky Way and the Southern Cross were clearly visible, incredibly romantic!
All the hotels included breakfast 🍳, and it wasn’t just a perfunctory meal; it was satisfying. There were hot dishes, cold dishes, fruits, bread, and drinks, perfect to start the day.

🎢 The itinerary was well-paced and fulfilling
Skydiving and bungee jumping in Queenstown were the highlights of our trip 💥
Taking photos of the lone tree in Wanaka and visiting the Puzzling World were super relaxing
Hiking in Mount Cook National Park, the glaciers and snow-capped mountains were stunning 🏔️
We joined a stargazing tour at Lake Tekapo, and it really felt like we were in the universe ✨
The custom planner did a great job, planning at most two or three spots a day, so we weren’t too tired and didn’t waste any time.

💸 How much did it cost in total?
For the two of us, the whole trip came to about 30,000 RMB per person 👇
🛏️ This included the private car, 7 nights in 4-5 star hotels, a Chinese-speaking guide, and itinerary planning:
🍽️ Meals and experience activities (skydiving, tickets, etc.)
✈️ International and domestic flights + miscellaneous expenses
Honestly, for this kind of “no-brainer, eat well, play well, and have fun” trip, I think it was very worth it.

💬 Travel Experience
Couple trips can often go wrong, but this time we hardly argued because it was so hassle-free. No need to fight for tickets, worry about getting lost, or stay up late planning.

We simply savored the breathtaking scenery and each other’s company, which made it an unforgettable experience 💖
If you’re dreaming of a serene and stress-free trip to New Zealand, a customized private tour with your own dedicated vehicle is the way to go! You won’t have to worry about planning every detail, joining large groups, or rushing from one place to another.

The entire journey is designed to be relaxed and of the highest quality.
I’m already looking forward to my next visit to Queenstown, and I can’t wait to hop on that thrilling Jet Boat again 🇳🇿
