The staff worked with me to plan the perfect activities and hotels for us, based upon our interests and physical abilities. Our guide/driver was very pleasant, and took great care of us. It was so nice not to have to worry about anything! Everything was so well organized! I didn't want to drive on the New Zealand roads, and ExperienceKart made our dream of visiting New Zealand a reality!
