What photographers & tour leaders say
“At Leyoo, we’re lucky to work with many wonderful local experts who help us share New Zealand with our guests, and Meghan is a firm favourite with both our team and our guests.

LILY, LEYOO TRAVEL (CHINA)
"It was an absolute pleasure to be working with Meghan on our 12 day winter tour of New Zealand’s South Island. Meghan took care of everything from arranging the group accommodation, to planning the itinerary and doing all the driving. She was also great with all of my clients when it came to the teaching side of things, and I found her to be very organised, supportive and friendly. As such I’m pleased to be working again with her on further workshops in New Zealand. "

ICONIC LOCATIONS & HIDDEN GEMS
From mountains to coastlines and everything in between
New Zealand offers an incredible variety of landscapes within a relatively small geographic area - from the mountains, alpine lakes and dramatic fiords of the Southern Alps, Aoraki/Mount Cook and Fiordland, to the wild West Coast and back country beauty of Central Otago.
And if that wasn’t variety enough, New Zealand is also home to rugged volcanic plateaus, geothermal regions, native forests, rolling farmland and an extraordinary coastline of beaches, cliffs and secluded bays both in the North and South Islands.
