Highly recommend using Limousine South. They transported our bridal party on our wedding day, and our driver Steve was fantastic! He arrived early, the vehicle was beautiful and clean, and he was able to pivot quickly and divert to Wanaka airport to get us to the helicopter (due to weather clearing enroute). Their communication was always prompt and their pricing very competitive. Thanks guys for the important part you played in our wedding. Highly recommended. Jenny and Henry

Today we had an amazing day. We toured three vineyards’ cellar doors and enjoyed a leisurely lunch at Black Estate (2 hats) within the Waipara Wine Region. Limousine South made all of the arrangements for us and John was a delightful chauffeur. We learned a lot about the area and saw some of the delightful coast line on our way out to the vines. I highly recommend Limousine South for your next adventure.

We had a very good time travelling with Limousine South for 7 days as a family of 5 and had the best guide - Clive. Clive is very experienced in his job as well as in life, and often shared nuggets of information as well as cultural history with us. He is very efficient and takes initiative and one time, he even unloaded all our luggage and placed them in the lobby while we were doing an activity, so as to save time. He is also very pleasant to travel with and I highly recommend him if you’re looking to enjoy your tour and learn a lot about New Zealand!
