What others are saying
''We required a last-minute private tour out to Milford Sound for our hotel guests on a busy Queenstown weekend. They were booked to fly out to Milford but the weather suddenly turned and all flights were cancelled. After many inquiries and no luck with other companies, David from DNA Tours got in touch and organized not only a private tour but managed to book our guests on the last boat cruise out for the day. They were very grateful and had a spectacular day out with David, who happened to step up on his day off to give them one of the most memorable experiences on their visit to Queenstown! We were blown away by the DNA Tours Team’s professionalism and quality of service and are highly recommended by us for their services''.
