September 2023 NZ Tour News

New Zealand is the place to be – don’t get left behind!

As Spring arrives in New Zealand, we look forward to the beginning of the summer touring season. If the rate of sales that we’ve seen is anything to go by, it’s going to be a bumper season!

We have never seen such a huge demand for tours – especially small group and luxury tours. Grand Pacific Ultimate Series of tours are practically sold out for this summer and their Signature range of tours are nearing sell out levels also!

MoaTrek small group tours have also been quicker to sell than you would imagine. Often we find the tour has already sold out between when we first talk to someone interested in a certain departure and when they decide to book.

Are you one of the people disappointed by not being able to secure a spot on the tour of your dreams this summer? Don’t get caught out again! Grand Pacific and AAT Kings have both released their 2024/25 tours for sale now.

Grand Pacific Tours

GPT are a favourite and by far our most popular selling tours. For good reason too, they offer the Ultimate Series and the Signature Series styles of touring. Both styles see you travelling in a full sized coach normally seating 48 people but fit out to offer superior comfort to small numbers of passengers.

Grand Pacific Ultimate custom coachThe Ultimate Series Tours coaches seat only 20 people in large ‘business class’ style of seats, stay at 4-5 star accommodation, and offer some pretty special experiences and inclusions throughout your tour.

While Signature Series Tours seat 32 people in comfortable ‘premium economy class’ style of seating, staying at 4 star hotel accommodation throughout and including some wonderful New Zealand experiences along the way.

There are some seasonal specials and hot deals on selected departures. And we can help you find the best deal for you. One thing we know for sure is that these tours will sell very quickly. So, we do recommend you start talking to us now to avoid missing out… Check out the full range of Grand Pacific Tours now.

AAT Kings Tours

AAT Kings have released their full range of 2024/25 tours and they are packed full of exciting adventures.

One important thing to note is that they are running an Earlybird Booking Special. Book by 31 October 2023 for a tour travelling between April-December 2024 and you’ll receive a 15% discount off selected departures. So, there’s another incentive to get in quick while these specials last!
