This is my honest review of my experience with PickYourTrail whose services my partner and I used to book our memorable New Zealand honeymoon. Right from helping us with understanding our personalities, our trip goals, our budgets, and timelines and building an itinerary based on all these inputs, Sivarohit was extremely helpful and proactive. Vijay from their Visa assistance team was prompt and ensured we got our visas perfectly in order and in time. Special shoutout to their support team: Chandramouli, Shreyah, Anith, Selina, Gaurav, Taniya, and Naveen who were available round the clock to help us with any queries (no matter how big or small) as well as regularly checking-in with us via the in-app chat to ensure we were doing okay. There were a few minor glitches (but overall, that's hardly a concern in the larger scheme of things). Right from the flights, to the choice of hotels, activities picked from the best quality providers, as well as the great self-drive rental cars that we got, the team did so much of the heavy-lifting for us so that we made the most out of our vacation. Can't wait for our next vacation with PYT!Tejas Kinger, Trip to New Zealand
New Zealand Group self-drive-escape Trip: 3 Nights & 4 Days
Welcome to the breathtaking landscapes of New Zealand! Nestled in the heart of the Southern Alps, Queenstown serves as a perfect base for your adventurous 3-night self-drive itinerary.

Whether you're excited to conquer the thrilling terrains or savor the scenic beauty of Lake Wakatipu, this journey unfolds unforgettable experiences tailored for both thrill-seekers and leisure lovers alike.
Highlights of the Destination
- Ride the Skyline Gondola to gain sweeping, panoramic views over Queenstown and its majestic surroundings—the steepest cable car in the Southern Hemisphere is a must-do!
- Embark on the Gem of the Sound Cruise and enjoy a delightful picnic lunch, surrounded by the enchanting scenery of Milford Sound.
- Take a guided buggy tour through the rugged terrain just five minutes from the town, perfect for both beginners and experienced drivers.
- Explore the vineyards and enjoy a wine-tasting experience in the renowned Central Otago region, celebrated for its exquisite Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Travel Tips for New Zealand
- Don’t forget your camera! The breathtaking landscapes offer endless photo opportunities, especially from Bob's Peak at the Skyline Gondola.
- Pack layers—New Zealand weather can be unpredictable; prepare for warm sunny days and cooler evenings in Queenstown.
- Keep an eye on the road signs and speed limits while exploring; self-driving offers flexibility, but safety first!
- Make advance bookings for popular activities like the Skyline Gondola and buggy tours to avoid disappointment during the peak season.

PYT does an amazing job at organizing your trips. Special thanks to Amit Tripathi for organizing the entire New Zealand trip/ managing bookings and always being available even after work hours, Sanjula for managing the activities and visa related queries and Vijay for initiating the Visas for us. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and would recommend to book internantional trips via PYT.

I had planned my New Zealand vacation via Pickyourtrail in May 2023. Starting from guiding me with the tour dates keeping visa issuance time period in mind, to helping me secure Visa with prompt followups with the Embassy, the Pre-Trip support was amazing. While on the trip, their 24*7 customer support was very prompt with timely trip & Activity intimations to resolving issues then and there. There was a small mistake with the cab planning where the cab drop was arranged for Queenstown while it was supposed to be Christchurch. The support team was very timely in coordinating and getting it changed with the Rental Service Provider else we would have gotten stuck as it was almost closing time. Now coming to the post Trip, Pickyourtrail ensured to follow up with me and get the refunds done with a few days despite waiting for my request. On the whole it was a crazy ride for me in New Zealand and all thanks to Pickyourtrail and it's team for making my first international vacation memorable.

We went to New Zealand for our honeymoon and believe me pickyourtrail is bestest among all the other travel and tour packages providing vendors in market.

Looking forward for more trips with you guys definitely in future.😊👍🏻
