Susan
Asked on September 28th, 2024What would be the price for adding one night of pre- and one night of post-accommodation? If they book these pre and post-nights, will they have airport transfers on those dates? Can they request a vegetarian option for food? What meals are included in the package?
Thrifty ToursOperator•Written September 2024Yes Sastry can definitely add a pre and post tour night which totals an extra $534 NZD. We can move the transfers to align with their flight dates, no problem. Yes we cater for vegetarians. There is 1 lunch included in this tour (On the Milford Sound cruise). We can note as vegetarian.

Asked on March 11th, 2023Can he be linked with another male traveller to share a two single bed room?
- Thrifty ToursOperator•Written March 2023
Unfortunately, we do not have this option, if you are a single traveller you must book a single supplement as all our hotels are private we don't do shared rooms. If there is someone else travelling with your dad it would be based on 2 travellers which cost slightly cheaper.
