    Asked on September 15th, 2025

    Could I get a brochure for this tour showing the detailed itinerary? Are there any airport transfers included? Are there any optional transfers from Christchurch back to Auckland at the end of the tour?

      Airport transfers are not included, so travelers are responsible for arranging their own transportation at their own expense. On the last day, there are no optional transfers from Christchurch back to Auckland included in the tour. Details will be provided by your Travel Director during the tour.
