Queenstown International Marathon, Half-Marathon and 10K

Jacqui and Marcie were terrific ringleaders and made the entire experience seamless, fun and gratifying. This tour offered just the right balance of organized group experiences and free time to enjoy all the adventures available in the area. Somehow, Marathon Tours & Travel always assembles a group of travelers that become lifetime friends - and the Queenstown trip was no exception.

Thanks for another memorable experience - Lucy had a great race and even as a non-running spectator, this trip was among the best, international or domestic.

We just returned from our most recent Marathon Tours & Travel experience in Queenstown, New Zealand and wanted to let you know how incredible it was. So great to be on the other side of the pandemic and enjoy international travel without all the restrictions again.

This is the third trip we have taken with Jacqui. In fact she was a deciding factor for us to take this trip. She is an excellent guide and lots of fun. She knows each location well - the places to visit, the best restaurants, the best places to shop, and excellent recommendations on tours to take. We enjoy our trips with Jacqui because we know she will never steer us wrong.

All the logistics were taken care of. I just had to get myself to Queenstown and I did not have to worry about all the normal race issues, e.g. start line transportation, pre race dinner, hotel, etc. took a lot of stress off my shoulders. Also got to meet a lot of amazing people and fellow runners. Made a lot of new friends.

First time with Marathon Tours. Was an excellent experience and has motivated me to make more trips and become part of the group.

The team at Marathon Tours & Travel makes you want to come back running another exciting experience with them.

Jacqui is always fabulous, well connected and informative to add to a great experience!

Nice scenery and excursions. The marathon was great and bonus it was my seventh continent!

What did I like best? Queenstown Marathon. Many choices of adventurous day trips surrounding Queenstown, such as Milford Sound scenic boat tour, Routeburn Trail 1 day hike, Gibbston Trail bike ride from Arrowtown to Gibbston Valley Winery.

Queenstown is a very picturesque place with many things to do. Jacqui is very familiar with both Auckland and Queenstown so was very helpful in thinking about what to do. Thought the marathon was very well organized and beautiful. Would do this trip again
