“It's clear that Matt is passionate about creating the best possible travel experiences for his clients no matter what the budget, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a seamless and well-organised trip.
Thank you once again for making this holiday to Central Asia truly special! I will be in touch for the next trip”

“Matt is flexible, attentive and creative with ideas. Because of this we had a great trip around the Golden Triangle in India. He found a great private driver, recommended some authentic places to stay, and suggested activities that were perfect for us. We just wouldn’t have been able to plan to this level of detail ourselves. A big thanks.”
— Dan Harding, London ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Matt has done a couple of trips for us in the past six months to Vietnam and the UK. He has been so helpful and always listens as to what and where we are wanting to go.
We would recommend his travel advice to any of our friends and family.”
— Mark Sutherland, Tirau ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Matt superbly managed our recent stay in Europe, taking into account our likes, dislikes and needs. Without Matt, we would not have thought about the need to include carparking, what the walk would be like to local food places, or how insulated the room was from the busy noises of downtown. I highly recommend using Journeys Retold.”
— R Harawira, BOP ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Journeys Retold did and outstanding job with our trip to Melbourne. The travel app made the location of flights and activity vouchers such a breeze. Thank you, Matt - looking forward to the team organising our travel next year”
— Alex Reid, Tauranga ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Matt has been awesome to deal with. Supplied great accommodation and tour options in Qatar, and has been brilliant with communication and checking up on how things were going. I highly recommend Journeys Retold”

“Big shout out to Matt Carter for organising our holiday to Rarotonga. We gave him basic instructions and he got everything bang on. The accommodation was a clean and tidy resort with a great restaurant and bar. Transfers to and from the airport were sorted. Hired a scooter and a car and took advantage of the local bus that goes round and round the island. Perfect place to go to just relax and unwind”
— David B - BOP ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Had a fabulous experience with Matt and Journeys Retold - snagged us a great deal and great support throughout. Meant I could focus on the important things...like the sights, sounds and taste of Tokyo. Recommend to anyone!”
— B Potaka, Wellington ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"“In the past we’ve had OK service from our Australian travel agents but it didn’t take Matt long to show us another level of service we’d never experienced. His accomodation options were top notch, his attention to detail spot on - right down to informing us immediately when some travel arrangements were altered. My wife and I can’t fault what he did for us.
Great job Matt.””
— Rod Potter, VIC, Australia ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Matt Carter is the best travel agent we have ever had. I contacted him while he was away on holiday, but he was happy to oblige and turn our list of ideas into a feasible, efficient itinerary. His communication was excellent, and he showed flexibility when we had to change flight dates. Nothing was a problem. All his communications were very personable and friendly. He is passionate about travel and took a genuine interest in our destination and our adventures, with a follow up phone call on our return.”
— Kelly S, Tauranga ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Matt listened to all our requirements and then gave us all the options we asked for. He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, giving us a wide variety of ideas for our destinations in Europe. He researched thoroughly and presented everything very well. He responded quickly to any changes we asked for. His personal and friendly approach made him great to deal with. We will happily use him again when planning the next adventure.”
