About New Zealand self drive tours
What do we do?
We use our experience and knowledge of New Zealand and our unique technology to design and create a truly memorable New Zealand Self Drive tour for you.
With New Zealand Self Drive Tours we don’t simply resell you other companies' itineraries and tours relabelled as our own. We offer you the largest choice of tour routes and accommodation, car and activity combinations and we can customise each one to suit you further.
Right from your first contact with us the same New Zealand tour expert will handle your enquiry, planning process, reservation and documentation to ensure consistent quality.
We have built our reputation on honest, accurate, relevant advice combined with an absolute no-compromise approach to providing you with the best possible service and with our custom technology we offer professional itinerary presentations. This combined with reservation and management technology ensures we spend time planning your tour and not processing paper!
Our small dedicated team are all New Zealand enthusiasts and between us, we have visited or experienced virtually every property, activity, and location we offer you. Based in Wanaka we have been in operation since 2004, and all our tours have been tried and tested by not just us but you, our clients.
We publish all feedback we receive to our guest book and you can search feedback for specific locations, properties and activities to see what other guests have to say. We take feedback seriously and continually monitor the quality of our suppliers.

Favourite Journey - Rotorua to Taupo
Best activity inclusion - International Antarctic Centre
Although I have not been with New Zealand Self Drive Tours as long as others, my passion and knowledge for New Zealand goes way back. Having spent my childhood adventuring around I went on to become a New Zealand guide. I have a great understanding of what works for some might not for someone else, after all, we're all different. I strongly believe the best way to get the most out of your holiday is to take guidance from one of our team, we will listen, create and support you through the entire process.

Best activity inclusion - Shotover Jet
Working at New Zealand Self Drive Tours allows me to explore my passion for travel and New Zealand. Unfortunately, I can't spend all my time travelling so working to build you the perfect itinerary is the next best thing. I love to chat with my clients and really understand what you need from a holiday then I can go away and compile the perfect journey with dates that suit.
