About

Five Star Adventures was started by and is run by Vince, a native of New Zealand. He guides most trips himself and he is passionate about travel, skiing, kiteboarding and languages. He has been lapping the globe for over a decade and has an extensive knowledge of and network of contacts to make your Five Star Adventures trip an unbeatable experience.

Vince has over 15 years teaching and guiding various activities including skiing, fishing and kite boarding in the USA, New Zealand and Europe. He has 2 undergraduate and 2 post graduate university qualifications and speaks 5 languages. All of the guides that will accompany you on your trip are qualified and passionate about what they do and your itinerary will draw on a team of experts on the places you want to go to and activities that you want to do. You won’t be with someone who just does this as a job, you will be with some one who truly lives to travel and be in the outdoors.

Because each trip is customised, pricing is dependent on the location and activities that you choose. We build your itinerary and the pricing is transparent. We don’t make any money on the travel and accomodation part of the deal. What you do pay for is the cost of your guide. Your guide is available to take care of everything on your trip and will usually double as your driver, teacher, guide and story teller. Think of a mix of athlete and butler. Most of our trips are typically 7-14 days end to end.
