As a progressively sophisticated culture, we are increasingly utilising the skills of advisors to give us an edge that might otherwise escape us. Financial advisors, personal trainers, wedding planners and interior designers are now common place. Have you thought to apply the same to your leisure time?
At Inzone Travel, Bridget Hackshaw offers a blend of New Zealand experience outside the imagination of most. Whether you're an international or local traveler, Bridget will take the time to discuss your interests and requirements in detail before beginning her research to create an exclusive package to suit. And such a package may include anything from a special welcome at a Marae upon arrival, a discussion with an historian about NZ history, being helicoptered onto boats in Fiordland to watch dolphins or catch blue-cod, hiking through the bush with a Maori nature guide, helicopter rides to explore remote landscapes, exclusive golf tours hosted by golf professionals, private wine tastings, being cooked for by Maori chefs, learning to windsurf, fly-fishing and much more. And there is plenty to do for children and teenagers.
Bridget has a personal passion for food, so there is a lot of focus on specialist food outlets, fabulous restaurants and cafes or even roadside stalls. Holidays are enhanced by meeting local characters. “One pilot in Wanaka parks her helicopters on her parent’s farmhouse lawn,” says Bridget. “You drive up a stunning valley to stop for a cup of tea in the farmhouse kitchen, before taking off to land on glaciers and to navigate wilderness rivers with local jet boat drivers.”
Bridget's travel packages are about providing an interesting and relevant blend of the very best of New Zealand for the time-poor, interactive traveler. Each hand-picked itinerary is presented in a custom-made booklet with background options for each day. Bridget will even make restaurant bookings at the best restaurants throughout the country, and her mobile is always on!
