Travel planning services
Please ensure you get the benefits of the personal & professional service that your local Travel Broker can give you. We have great contacts with lots of domestic travel suppliers, and can put together fantastic package deals for you with flights, accommodation, car hire, tours & activities.
We are your 'one stop shop', and can offer you some great deals on discovering our own beautiful New Zealand, with the specialist suppliers that we contract.
For domestic NZ travel, there can be a tendency for some people to just ‘jump online’ and think that’s its ok to book it themselves as its ‘just’ domestic, but remember that by doing it this way - the commission goes directly offshore with overseas owned online booking tools.
When you book through a local Travel Agent or Broker, you are keeping the commission here in your community. The price is usually the same plus you will get the extra bonus of a friendly & professional personal service.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
