Yes. You can make partial, split or additional payments towards your New Zealand tour at any time after your deposit has been paid. Payments can be made through your online itinerary, allowing you to spread the cost of your holiday before the final balance is due.
Many travellers prefer to spread the cost of their holiday over several payments rather than paying the entire balance at once.
New Zealand Self Drive Tours makes this process simple by allowing additional payments to be made through your online itinerary.
Can I make payments before the balance due date?
Yes.
Once your deposit has been paid, you can make additional payments whenever it suits you.
There's no requirement to pay the remaining balance until the final payment due date shown on your itinerary.
For most bookings, the final balance is due 60 days before your tour starts.

How do I make a partial payment?
Making an additional payment is straightforward.
- Log in to your online itinerary.
- Select "Make/View Payments" from the right-hand menu.
- Locate the white balance box at the bottom of the page.
- Edit the amount to the value you'd like to pay.
- Proceed through the secure payment process.
- Complete your transaction.
The payment will automatically be applied to your outstanding balance.
Can I split payments between travel companions?
Yes.
Many travelling couples, families and groups choose to contribute separately towards the cost of a trip.
If your deposit has already been paid, additional payments can be made directly through the online itinerary.
What if I want to split the deposit payment?
If the initial deposit has not yet been paid and you'd like to split the deposit between multiple travellers or different credit cards, please contact us first.

Once the full deposit has been received, we'll confirm your booking and begin arranging your holiday.
Can I use different credit cards?

Many travellers choose to spread payments across multiple cards.

Why do travellers choose to make partial payments?
Partial payments can make budgeting easier, particularly for longer trips or bookings made well in advance.
Many travellers choose to gradually pay off their holiday while planning visits to destinations such as Queenstown, Milford Sound, Rotorua and Bay of Islands.
This approach can make it easier to manage travel expenses before departure.
What happens once I've paid my balance in full?
Once your outstanding balance has been paid and all booking requirements have been met, your arrangements can be finalised ahead of your New Zealand holiday.
Your travel consultant will continue assisting with any questions or itinerary adjustments prior to departure.
