Questions and answers
How much does a private New Zealand tour cost?
Most private tours fall between NZD $400 and $700 per person per day, covering accommodation, private transport, activities and your guide. Budget trips start near $250 per person per day and luxury lodge journeys begin around $1,200.
Can I customise every aspect of my tour?
Yes. You choose the destinations, the order you visit them, how many nights you spend in each, your accommodation level, activities, meals and transport. Nothing about the itinerary is fixed.
Can I choose my own accommodation?
You select an accommodation level in the tour builder and we book properties in that band. If you have specific hotels or lodges in mind, tell us in your request and we will price those exact properties.
Can I add activities?
Every destination in the builder lists the activities we operate there, and you can add or remove them at any point. Anything you want that is not listed can be added when we confirm your itinerary.
How quickly will my booking be confirmed?
You receive an instant estimate the moment you build your itinerary. Our team checks live availability and confirms your final itinerary and price within 24 hours.
Do you cater for families?
Yes. Family tours use shorter driving days, family rooms or interconnecting rooms, and activities with suitable age ratings. Child pricing applies where operators offer it.
Do you cater for luxury travellers?
Yes. We book New Zealand's leading lodges, arrange private guides and helicopter transfers, and handle restaurant reservations throughout your journey.
