Fantastic experience: My son had a lesson with Chris just before his sitting his restricted test. We are from out of town so not too familiar with the Queenstown roads which can be very busy. Chris explained the rules and requirements for the test very ably in the one hour lesson. He calmly coached my son through perfecting his parallel parking and gave him many good tips for the rest of the test. The test was done in very tricky conditions (busy school traffic, lots of cars and pedestrians) but my son was able to put into practice everything he'd learnt and passed the test without many mistakes. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: When I started my driving journey, all my friends recommend Dan. Now I've passed my restricted (first time), I can join them and will wholeheartedly recommened Dan to everyone who asks. Dan is an outstanding instructor. Encoraging, positive and extremely knowledgeable. I was a bit of a late starter with driving, but thanks to him I now love it - just as well as I owe everyone plenty of lifts! Thanks again Dan!

Fantastic experience: After several recommendations from friends we signed our son up for driving lessons with Dan Gerard driving school. I observed a few of the lessons from the back seat and Dans manner was calm and professional which immediately put my son at ease. Dans patience and dedication created a perfect learning experience and my son passed without any errors. We too now highly recommend Dan and thank him for his contribution to encouraging safe and skilled driving to our youth. We will be signing up for other lessons available to ensure our son has all the skills to tackle our varied road conditions. Thank you Dan!

Fantastic experience: I passed first time thanks to Dan & Rach. Very friendly, very flexible and some great techniques that made learning easy. In fact, when I was taking my test we passed Dan and I pointed out to my instructor that that was my teacher, he nodded and simply said "Dan? He's very thorough." Thanks guys!

Fantastic experience: My daughter had a few driving lessons with Rachael & Dan. She gained great skills, confidence & tips from them & feedback was given during & after the lessons to her & myself on what she needed to work on between lessons. It's so easy to book online & change apts if needed. They also contacted me whenever a cancellation came up. Very professional & friendly. Thanks to Rachael & Dan she passed her driving test without any critical errors! I would highly recommend them both ! ***** 5 STARS
