What Our Guests Say
“Kathy was amazing. We had a couple of zoom calls with her and she put together a perfect itinerary for us. It felt like family looking after us. I would highly recommend anyone traveling to New Zealand to use her services.”
John R
Custom Private Tour
“Kathy planned such an amazing itinerary for us to get to know New Zealand! We did not have to worry about anything and was able to enjoy our honeymoon to the fullest! We would not have thought of going to some of the places if we planned it on our own. Highly recommend! No regrets!”
Rowie C

The People Behind the Service
Timeless NZ is led by Kathy and Wayne, the Queenstown-based owners of New Zealand Private Tours. Their genuine love of Aotearoa, years of international travel experience and first-hand knowledge of New Zealand shape every journey their team creates.
For them, luxury is not about filling an itinerary with expensive experiences. It is about thoughtful pacing, seamless arrangements and knowing which places, people and small details will make your time in New Zealand exceptional.
Together with their small local team and trusted network of guides, lodges and travel partners, they create private journeys that feel relaxed, personal and genuinely memorable.
Exceptional Places to Stay, Chosen From Experience
The right place to stay can shape the entire journey. We look beyond photographs and star ratings to consider the atmosphere, location, service and how naturally each property fits into your itinerary.
We have personally stayed at or visited many of the luxury lodges and special properties we recommend, so our advice comes from genuine experience.
One of our own highlights was a private outdoor dinner at Huka Lodge overlooking the Waikato River—a quiet and deeply personal experience that has stayed with us long after the journey ended.

PLANNING BACKED BY REAL TOURING EXPERIENCE
We Don’t Just Plan New Zealand. We Guide Here Too.
Kathy and Wayne also own and operate Remarkable Scenic Tours, their Queenstown-based touring company.
Since 2015, its local guides have been sharing Queenstown, Wānaka, Aoraki/Mount Cook, Fiordland and the lower South Island with travellers from around the world.
This gives Timeless NZ something many travel planners cannot offer: practical knowledge gained from operating tours and looking after guests on the road. We understand realistic driving times, changing weather, vehicle comfort and the small details that determine how a day actually feels.
In the lower South Island, parts of your journey may be operated by our own guides and premium touring vehicles. Across the rest of New Zealand, we work with carefully selected local guides and trusted touring partners.
Remarkable Scenic Tours is Qualmark Silver accredited and supported by hundreds of traveller reviews.
