Stray Adventure Tours

Stray was an optimal choice in picking a tour company for my limited time in the North Island in NZ. I'm a very heavy traveler at this point having had visited almost 100 different countries and usually, I'm pretty good about getting itineraries and building trips with my eyes closed. I had started to do that for my 8 days in NZ and kept on coming back to a thought. While I had the means to rent a car or use public and do this all on my own that Stray's price and what they included overall really wasn't that much of a price difference. At that point, it would be me just being stubborn in choosing to tour on my own and Stray's date for the North Island tour linked up perfectly with my fly in/out dates. The tour of the North Island was excellent - I can't say there were any parts that were less than optimal but I would just say when you visit the Blue Duck to make sure you are armed with the right supplies including alcohol. I'm somewhat of a foodie so while I can't say the food was at all bad, I like to turn things up on where I eat and was able to do so. There was a lot of space/time to allow me to freestyle and not feel obligated or forced to only do exactly what they want at their exact times. They kept things loose like that and as a freestyler of sorts, I liked that part about the journey with Stray. Shorty was an excellent guide providing a nice spirit throughout the journey. At no point did I feel that any part of the tour was less than professional but also, Shorty was nice and inclusive trying to make sure everyone had a good time.

I spent 3 and a bit weeks travelling with Stray all throughout the South Island in New Zealand and can honestly say I had one of the best experiences ever. Everyone I met on the buses were so friendly and I loved the flexibility of being able to hop on and hop off the bus at any point when I found a stop that I particularly liked. I thought there was a good mix of 'must do' stops like Queenstown, Mount Cook and Wanaka as well as some smaller stop offs were you could chill out a little more. I think it's perfect for anyone who is travelling solo and want to meet new people.

Stray is for everyone, every age, travelling single, multiple...If you want to relax, enjoy, experience and let the ones who know New Zeeland best show you its beauty, choose Stray, choose an unforgettable journey. Thank you Lego & Stray for being professional & wonderful guides.

Just competed a 9-day NZ South Island trip with Whaea-Nicole (driver-guide) under Stray Select Kaka Tour. The tour is packed with hiking opportunities to Hooker Valley, Mount John, which offer stunning views of Mount Cook and Lake Tekapo respectively. The stay at Hermitage Hotel is most memorable as it is so close to the mountains and the dinner and breakfast buffets are superb! Nicole also brought us to try the best pie in NZ at Farlie. Thanks for the amazing tour.

Just finished the Kea adventure tour and it was an amazing experience. Jack and Cody, the tourguides, were very kind and involved and did a great job at showing us around New Zealand. I did so many unforgettable things: ziplining, kayaking, the Tongariro Crossing, my first sky dive, swimming with dolphins, visiting the hobbiton movie set... This tour is a great way to explore New Zealand, without having to drive yourself, and to meet new people.

Went for the Stray Select - Kaka Tour under Whaea-Nicole, who was extremely professional and a wonderful guide! She was a safe driver and shared many interesting pieces of information. Despite all the roadblocks and weather challenges, she was very quick on her feet and could recommend alternate activities on the go. I hope to do a trip with her again ☺️

I had the absolute best three weeks travelling the North Island with Stray on their Jonah Pass. I loved all of the unique and off the beaten path places we went to that I would never have found on my own. My driver guides Thor and Soxx were so fantastic, informative and fun, I just want to do it all over again! Highlights were White Water Rafting in Rotorua and the Tongariro Crossing!

Just completed the Kaka tour with Whaea-Nicole, who was a lovely and approachable guide! She looked into the safety of each and every one of us, and made all of us feel very comfortable with her. She also gave good advice about the activities and shared wonderful fun facts along the trip. The trip was a memorable one because of her, I will definitely recommend travelling with her if you are planning to visit NZ!
