Independent Holidays

New Zealand is an easy and friendly country to travel around independently. It has an excellent network of roads, regular coach, rail and air services and a fantastic choice of accommodation, ranging from home and farmstays to luxury hotels and lodges. With plenty of excursions and activities on offer, each regional centre makes a splendid base for a day or more.
Here are the options for independent travel:

Self Drive holidays
We offer a choice of car or motorhome rental, which give complete flexibility so you really can ‘go as you please’.

Self Drive holidays with pre-booked accommodation
If you want the freedom to do things at your own pace but with the security of an interesting and well researched itinerary and a pre-booked room at the end of the day, then this type of holiday is ideal.
Hotel-based holidays
Farmstay holidays
Lodge holidays
Hotels of character
4 x 4 self-drive tours
Nature holidays

Coach based independent holidays
Holidays using scheduled coach services but often taking special ‘visitor friendly’ routes to include places of interest along the way – the drivers are friendly and helpful and you will be picked up and dropped off at your accommodation each day. Your fellow travellers may be locals or other visitors like yourself - a great way to meet people.

Tailor Made Holidays
our staff can help you plan an itinerary, designed especially for you and based entirely around what you want to see and do, booking accommodation and excursions as required.
