Sit back and let someone else take care of the driving with one of our independent coach tours. Your job is to gaze in amazement at the landscapes, never missing a moment of it because you’re not behind the wheels.
Whether you want to tiki-tour around North Island or enjoy South Island’s highlights, we’ve crafted a range of packages for you to choose from.
How does it work?
You choose where you want to go and what you want to do. Leave the rest to us.
Our Independent Coach Tours utilise daily coach services throughout New Zealand. With daily departures, you will have the flexibility to choose your departure dates and extend your stay in a place that’s caught your fancy – a lot like self-drive, only you don’t have to actually drive on windy roads and miss the scenery!
You will be offered a range of accommodation to choose from as part of the tour, and we will even organise your sightseeing, ferry, train or any required transfers to complete the itinerary.
Have a look at our Independent Coach Tours collection below to see which one you fancy. Or, would you like us create an individual coach tour itinerary for you?
