点评:If you are interested in visiting New Zealand let me recommend booking a tour with ZigZag Tours. I returned home this week after having an amazing time doing ZigZag Tours 16-day 15-night Top of the South Tour.
I had a fantastic New Zealand experience with nine fellow adventurers and Jemma & Grant, the owners and operators of ZigZag Tours. The tour is a bit different in approach in that travel is via a 12 passenger Mercedes van pulling a custom-built trailer. The van is very comfortable with excellent leather seats with two USB charging ports each. The trailer has roof mounted solar panels, a kitchen area, dual refrigerators, and multiple storage areas for personnel luggage and the camping gear. Each person, or couple if traveling together, has an amazing stand-up headroom 3-person canvas tent, folding cot and camp chair. Grant and Jemma are super helpful in assisting with camp setup, but the tents and equipment are so well designed and of such high quality that you will quickly get the hang of it. If you need help it is never a problem getting it. At any rate the tour itinerary is set up so that most of the time we spend two or three days in the same campground so you will not be packing up camp every night.
Each morning breakfast is provided, tea, coffee, toast, cereal, fresh fruit, yogurt. Most lunches are on your own as frequently we are off hiking, skydiving, kayaking, sightseeing in town or doing some other individual or group activity away from the campground. Some dinners are on your own as well but over half the time at 7 pm or so Jemma had a fabulous culinary feast set out for us.
Since the evening are long during Summer in NZ after dinner we might just sit around and talk or walk to beach and watch the stars come out or play games.
Having an individual tent allows people to have their own space. Our group of very diverse individuals got along very well. I think part of the reason that was so is that we all had our tents as a personal space to call our own.
If you are interested in touring the amazing, beautiful country of New Zealand and like the idea of doing so with a small group of like-minded people while being guided by two extremely capable, knowledgeable and friendly people you will not be disappointed with ZigZag Tours!

我与九位冒险家同伴以及 ZigZag Tours 的所有者和经营者 Jemma & Grant 一起度过了一段美妙的新西兰经历。这次旅行的方式有点不同,因为旅行是通过一辆 12 名乘客的梅赛德斯货车拉着一辆定制的拖车进行的。这辆货车非常舒适,配有优质真皮座椅,每个座椅均配有两个 USB 充电端口。拖车有屋顶安装的太阳能电池板、厨房区、双冰箱以及多个用于人员行李和露营装备的存储区。每个人或情侣(如果一起旅行)都拥有令人惊叹的站立式 3 人帆布帐篷、折叠床和露营椅。格兰特和杰玛在协助营地搭建方面非常乐于助人,但帐篷和设备设计精良,质量非常高,您很快就能掌握窍门。如果您需要帮助,获得帮助从来都不是问题。无论如何,旅游行程的安排是为了让我们大部分时间都在同一个露营地度过两三天,这样你就不会每晚都收拾行李了。
每天早晨提供早餐,包括茶、咖啡、烤面包、麦片、新鲜水果、酸奶。大多数午餐都是您自己享用,因为我们经常会去远足、跳伞、皮划艇、城里观光或在远离露营地的地方进行一些其他个人或团体活动。有些晚餐也是您自己吃,但超过一半的时间是在晚上 7 点左右,Jemma 为我们准备了一顿丰盛的美食盛宴。
由于新西兰夏季的夜晚很长,晚饭后我们可能只是坐下来聊天或步行到海滩看星星出来或玩游戏。
拥有独立的帐篷可以让人们拥有自己的空间。我们这群非常多元化的人相处得很好。我认为造成这种情况的部分原因是我们都有帐篷作为我们自己的个人空间。
如果您有兴趣游览新西兰这个令人惊叹、美丽的国家,并且喜欢与一小群志同道合的人一起旅行,同时由两位能力极强、知识渊博且友好的人指导,那么您对 ZigZag Tours 不会感到失望!
