⇄Round trip — you start and finish at Christchurch. Numbers 2 onwards are the stops along the way.
This route is a suggestion, not a timetable
- Booking this trip doesn't lock you into these exact places. On the day you can ask your driver to skip a stop, linger longer somewhere, or head somewhere else entirely.
- The one thing we do need to keep is where you're picked up and where you finish — those stay as booked.
- Your booked time still applies (14 hours for this trip). Your driver has to get home too, so anything beyond that needs to be arranged and paid for in advance.
Price covers the private vehicle, driver and fuel. Activity tickets (e.g. Hobbiton, Waitomo Caves, geothermal parks) are the customer's responsibility.
