Best of Waiheke
“My experience in dealing with Karen has been outstanding. From the moment I picked up the phone to make contact to the final moments of our trip I felt totally at ease. It was so easy to deal with her. She was so flexible to any requirements our business needed and would go out of her way in getting responses back to me in a super fast timeframe.
Our trip to Waiheke Island was outstanding, everything that was organised from transfers, accommodation bookings, activities on the island and catering needs were so easily managed and coordinated. Such a pleasure to have an expert consultant on the island to assist us in giving the best options to make our stay a pleasure!” Senani Senanayake BNZ

“We held our company team event with 50 people and did The Great Escape Challenge. It was absolutely fabulous and very well run and coordinated. We had team members of varying ages and all I received back was positive feedback.
Karen was fantastic and made sure the event ran smoothly and what a fantastic place to visit - Waiheke Island is magic and I look forward to going back in the future. I would thoroughly recommend this for a team event.”
