Having never been to NZ before, we gave Sabine free rein to organise a 2-week family trip for us around the themes of nature, art, adventures, relaxation and wine. Our expectations were surpassed in every category and we met with some of the kindest and most passionate people ever who are all part of Moments’ network of carefully picked local experts. Whilst the destinations and accommodations were decided upon in advance (in our case Auckland, Waiheke, Queenstown, Minaret Station and The Landing), the programme allowed for a lot of flexibility once on site and last minute changes were accommodated seamlessly and nothing seemed impossible. Unforgettable moments thanks to Moments! A rare pearl of an agency that still takes the 'client is king' concept literally.

Sabine and Kerrie are passionate, approachable, and hospitable to a fault. It’s in their nature to obsess about every detail for you, and go the extra mile to ensure things are delivered perfectly.

Kerrie is very familiar with the Chinese market and understands our high levels of expectation extremely well.

If you are looking for an extraordinary travel experience to New Zealand, you have found the team that can help you. Sabine Bowden at Moments, with her knowledge of New Zealand and her passion for extravagance, will create a tailored experience for you that you’ll never forget

Kerrie has always been an excellent ambassador for New Zealand. Kerrie’s recommendations, advice and assistance whenever I visited ensured I had the most memorable experiences.

Sabine is a true cosmopolitan with Austrian roots. She was born in the mountains of Styria, studied in Vienna and lived in New York and London before calling New Zealand her home. Sabine is passionate about living in the moment and finding special places to simply enjoy. Sabine has an exceptional ability to recognise what people truly want and can transform these desires into unique experiences. Moments, as she would say, are there to be lived and enjoyed to the fullest.

Kerrie’s ability to work across geographies and cultures with the same calm, welcoming approach is exceptional.  She is a highly capable person of unquestionable integrity who I thoroughly recommend.

Kerrie planned the ultimate New Zealand experience for our group. We traversed the entire country with adventures including zip lining, waterfalls, hiking, boating, fishing, black water rafting, wine tasting, bee keeping, kayaking, and even relaxing by the beach. Our group of 14, including 8 teenagers, was dazzled constantly by the majestic landscapes and the magnificent lodges where we stayed. Often times we felt like we were the only people in sight, reaching remote locations by helicopter or jet boating on a pristine lake then hiking to a private lunch. It is no small task to plan a trip for a group this size. The logistics were seamless and the gracious hospitality from our guides and accommodations enhanced the whole experience. Thank you for our family’s most memorable vacation filled with so many special “Moments.”

We loved working with Kerrie. From the moment we started brainstorming ideas, she was interested in designing an itinerary that worked well for our time, budget, and interests. We went through several iterations of our itinerary via emails, Zoom calls, and the Axus app over the course of a year to create a trip of a lifetime for us. We always appreciated her patience, good nature, and professionalism, giving us confidence that we were in good hands. We appreciated her responsiveness before, during, and after our trip. We highly recommend Kerrie and Moments Travel.

Our thanks to Sabine and Kerrie for the most spectacular trip to New Zealand. We waited 15 years and it was well worth the wait. It was a joyous experience and the celebration of our lifetime! Sabine spoke with us at length and listened with great care to our interests and hopes for this trip. She curated a trip beyond our wildest expectations. Every day Sabine watched over us, making sure we were in the right place at the right time. She swiftly made accommodations to our plans when last minute changes were necessary due to weather conditions. While we worked mostly with Sabine, when she was away prior to our arrival, Kerrie seamlessly stepped in to complete our final plans. Together, they make quite an extraordinary team! Each day was filled with joy and the unexpected. There was a surprise around every corner. Just when we thought we had experienced the most spectacular adventure, the next one was upon us. We would travel anywhere in the world with Moments, but since Sabine and Kerrie only plan trips in New Zealand, we will have to come back again!
