Hi - my name is Chris; I would love to take you on a tour around Napier & Hawke's Bay in our modern luxury European vehicles. I have had a long passion for travel & the tourism industry. I've traveled extensively during my 20's in Australia, Asia, North America and Europe where I tour guided on the canal boats in France. In 2002 I meet my wife, who is from Hawke's Bay and in 2003 we moved there from Auckland to start a family and immerse ourselves into the region we now call home. I want to share the wonderful Hawke's Bay experience with you and your friends. It really is a most beautiful and diverse place! My aim is to provide a luxury tour experience along with customised tour & transfer options that you'll want to share with your family and friends. Our luxury European vehicles are air conditioned for superior comfort and complementary chilled water is provided. I can also cater for larger groups by request so please do not hesitate to contact me if I can help. Below you'll find one of the latest reviews I've received from a happy customer. . . . RATING 5 star TOUR: Napier City and Scenic Hawke's Bay DATE: 17 May 2018 LOCATION: Napier, New Zealand A great time. Weather and views fantastic. Very knowledgeable guide for the area. Looking forward to visiting the area again one day. CG. UK I am a member of ProGuides - The Professional Association of Tour Guides in New Zealand. I hold a Transport Service Licence permitting me to operate private hire vehicles and my driving licence includes a "Passenger" endorsement permitting public service driving. Our vehicles are subjected to 6-monthly independent safety test administered by the New Zealand Transport Authority. I have no restrictions in regards to my tours.
