Self-drive holidays

Because New Zealand's roads are typically uncrowded and everything is so compact, most people choose to do most of their travelling within New Zealand by car, or by combination of car, train, coach and even fly if time is short.

There are obviously 2 parts to self-drive holidays - where do you want to go, and how do you want to travel? Anyone can rent you a hire car, but only a specialised New Zealand travel agent based in New Zealand can tell you the best places to go and things to do! And since our itinerary planning service is no obligation and absolutely free, why wouldn't you take advantage of our local expertise.

To get started:

1. Browse our suggested itineraries - there are limitless options for routes and activities, but to give you some ideas there are also some classic routes which we've included on our itineraries page.
2. Complete our online enquiry form - tell us about your preferred travel plans. If you don't have much of an idea then we'll send through some suggestions, but if you do, the more you can tell us about your plans the better will be our response.
   
3. We'll email you a suggested itinerary based on the information you provided us. For an example of what this may look like, click here.
   
4. Provide us with your feedback - the suggested itinerary is just that - a suggestion - and this is your holiday to customise as you please. Let us know what you think and we can customise it to suit.
   
5. We'll send through a quote based on the agreed itinerary.
   
6. Book - Once your happy with the itinerary and the quote you're ready to book, and once you've booked we'll send through an updated itinerary with all the key information like maps, directions, etc.

Then of course you'll need transport, so choose from either the cars or motorhomes we have available.

Then just let us know your preferences and we can customise to your heart's desire!
