New Zealand South island tour.
Posted: Fri July 7, 2006 11:36 PM UTC
Whilst visiting my daughter in Auckland at Christmas we have booked a bus tour of South Island. There are no trips included should we book on line before we go for such things a shotover jet ride , heli-rides mount cook etc or would we be able to just get on the trips when we arrive in each resort.

It's a very busy time then, if you don't book you risk missing out or wasting a lot of time waiting. Have a great trip. Remember even in summer, it can throw you a cold spell down here, so bring at least a waterproof.

Early Dec is not quite as busy as after Christmas, but either booking or revising bookings 2 - 3 days ahead, is a good idea.

We are visting South Island in January 2007 and particularly want to make sure we can get on trips - eg to Doubtful Sound. I found the booking very easy and they have a 24hour before cancelation policy so if you have to change things around a few days before you won't lose out.
