‘Howzat Travel offered a comprehensive service, with information about VISAs and car picks ups sorted. The Tour Managers were brilliant, I felt like part of an extended family! They were always cheerful and helpful. As a woman travelling on her own I was very impressed by the welcoming and inclusive feel of the tour from beginning to end. I will not look anywhere else for future tours and hope to take advantage of extra trips and flexible arrangements.’
Cate Mawston

‘Howzat Travel, as ever, provides an efficient personal approach for their clients. This continues on tour through their excellent Tour Managers supplanted by local support staff. Gordon (as ever) did a great job in his efficient but unobtrusive manner and we had an excellent driver, Bruce on the Red tour. I’ve been to 125 countries (out of 193). NZ is #1 in my opinion. This was my fifth time here.’
Bryan Tomalin

‘It’s been sensational! l just want to say thank you very much indeed for a magnificent holiday in New Zealand. It ranks up with the best cricket tour l have experienced with the best cricket tour company HOWZAT TRAVEL! It is much appreciated. Gordon Bacon the tour leader is absolutely brilliant and it’s been a pleasure to spend time with him on tour and l hope he continues working for you!’
Andrew Tipple

‘The Tour Managers were top draw and the end of tour ‘do’ with Aggers and Steven Finn was great!’

‘I was at the T20 Internationals, this was the 3rd time I had been to NZ to see cricket, it remains a lovely country. The hotels were top notch plus I didn’t know how I would react to T20 games but I found them relaxing and not too serious, I think games 2pm to 5.30 worked, it gave us time to be “tourists” before the games and wind down afterwards. Our group with Gordon Bacon was a very friendly bunch. No one got lost or misbehaved!!  Gordon was a kind and supportive guide, as a retired railway worker I thought the Train ride from Christchurch to Picton inspiring.  On the cricket itself, I reckon that the ICC are going to issue hard hats to spectators given the no of big 6s! THANKS AGAIN!’
Andrew Beere

‘You will no doubt have heard that it was a wonderful trip and everyone had a great time. Thank you for sorting out the flights via Los Angeles. On the return journey I had the company of the England team. It is only just over two weeks before I go to South Africa. Already looking forward to it!’
David Moss

‘I’ve had another successful trip (this time without the rest of the family) following our half term break in Barbados. There were more activities included in the tour than were included in the information that I received and had been advertised. This exceeded my expectations and represented very good value for money.’
Julian Mellor

‘The Howzat Travel team on the ground – Nick, Carole and Gordon – were brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble and they were great company too. Also, many thanks to you for handling my booking and dealing so swiftly with all my last minute changes to my itinerary!’
Robert Peacock

‘Thank you so much for your friendly and efficient organisation around my New Zealand tour. It was excellent and Gordon (Red Team Leader) was friendly, very efficient and covered all bases. Nick & Carol were also excellent when I came across them from time-to-time. They were all together a wonderful team. I thought the package was excellent value for money.’
John Shaw

‘An absolutely brilliant time was had by all.’
Denis & Jean Lawson

‘This was my fourth Howzat tour and the third going to a new country. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all of them. New Zealand is a fantastic country with great people and very nice beer! Put on half a stone in weight and hoping to make my t-shirt suntan last till Xmas… Thank You.’
Marc Parry

‘I thoroughly enjoyed all three parts of my tour – my personal excursions to the Bay of Islands at the beginning; the cricket in Hamilton; and the South Island tour afterwards.’
Matthew Stevenson

‘We were kept well informed while also asked for input and throughout the tour there was a good relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.’
Anon

‘Very lucky to have a great group of fellow travellers on the Red tour who with an excellent tour manage made for an excellent tour.’
Terry Chilcott

‘Kudos to Howzat Travel, neither my travelling partner nor I could come up with a single suggestion of how to make the tours better!’
Anon

‘Thanks for an incredible tour, the tour managers were fantastic, great to meet new friends with fellow travellers, some siteseeing during the non-cricketing days, the whole package was one I will not forget!’
Neil Garden

‘I thoroughly enjoyed it despite the cricket!’
Jim Atkinson

‘Thanks again Howzat Travel, who were very proactive in initial contact, and our Tour Managers in particular. They were fantastic company, superb hosts and welcoming and inclusive for all. My grandfather has some mobility issues yet nothing was too much or a bother. Thank you both enormously. See you at the Ashes down under!’
Andrew Brackley & Ron Fine

‘All went very well. A nice set of people who got on well together.’
Geoff Marshall

‘This was my first tour with Howzat. I was very impressed with the organisation and how smoothly everything went. Will definitely use you again and recommend to friends.’
David Gould

‘A brilliant way to have a great touring holiday of New Zealand combined with cricket at some amazing grounds. It was quite an intensely scheduled tour and never a dull moment. Coach drivers were very good. It was good to be on holiday with a purpose, and with a lovely group of sport minded people. The dinner at the end was a great way to round off the trip with new friends, and it was a treat to listen to Aggers.’
Sean

‘Very pleased with the tour, it was a great winter break, and very relaxing. I forgot all about work!’
