We were taken care of from the moment we cleared customs to when we were dropped off at the airport for our flight home.

We contacted First Light Travel looking for some help planning our Anniversary trip to New Zealand and Australia. We had a phone consultation with Danielle who listen to what we wanted and put together an amazing trip. We were taken care of from the moment we cleared customs to when we were dropped off at the airport for our flight home. I would highly recommend using First Light Travel.
