Honeymoon Adventure to New Zealand and Australia
Good morning Albert!

Our honeymoon went perfect outside of the croc express so really can’t complain about that. Rotorua was probably our favorite city because of the location and how walkable the city was. We went to see the redwood forest and did all the hot springs spas. Waimangu volcanic valley was amazing and looked like it was out of Jurassic park. If we had to do it again we would probably do all New Zealand for 2.5 weeks because we had to move so much. Australia was also amazing. You guys did a great job planning out trip!

Memorable Journey with Amazing Experiences!
"We really enjoyed all of the scheduled activities that were planned for us from the Burj Khalifa to dune bashing to the Abu Dhabi day trip. All of our tour guides were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The hotel and the resort we stayed at in both Dubai and the Maldives were beautiful and staff made our stays even more lovely. The only thing we would have changed is the time of year we went to the Maldives because of the extremely windy and rainy weather we experienced which we of course know is out of everyone’s control. Overall it was an incredible trip we will remember for the rest of our lives.”

New Zealand Adventure: Expertly Planned for an Unf
Albert Buena did an excellent job for our New Zealand trip. He calmly and thoroughly complied with our every request and made all the necessary arrangements which fell into place seamlessly for the fast-paced trip we wanted in order to see everything possible. We used the provided paper copies of the itinerary constantly. The only thing I would have added to it was a map because we were unfamiliar with the country and I lost track of where I was in relation to other places. Hobbiton was just as expected and the drivers and tour guides knew what they were doing and were eager to answer questions and expound on topics of particular interest. I will say that “jet lag” is real but I don’t know what can be done to prevent or change that! It’s just part of traveling especially across time zones. My favorite things were the dreamlike landscape of the rainforests and fields and learning about the history of NZ.

An Unforgettable Journey: Perfectly Planned and Fu
I thought of you many times during out trip and wish I could remember all that I wanted to say. I’m a pretty detail oriented person, but you amazed me with the details of our trip that were in the notebook you sent. We referred to it constantly, and mine is practically worn out! I will tell you more as I get rested and remember things. Gretchen loved Hobiton and it truly was outstanding and beautiful. The fact that it’s still a working sheep farm is noteworthy. I was interested in the dairy farming as I grew up on a small dairy farm here in East Texas. We did get to see a kiwi bird at a small stop on the way to Christchurch or somewhere. The timeline is a little bit of a blur. It was amazing how each big city had its own flavor and emphasis. I really enjoyed that. We walked miles and miles, exploring cities on our own. The rainforest on the West Coast drive was amazing and unequaled. We met such nice friendly tourists and locals everywhere we went. More later. Thank you so m
