Trails Of New Zealand

There is no bad time really, but the weather can play and important role. Weather in New Zealand is very changeable throughout the year and all months are moderately wet. Fine sunny spells can happen at any time of year but the departures have been timed to coincide with the best chance of good weather; although you should come prepared for rain. The temperature in Auckland will vary from approximately 11-30C (minmax) from October-March however it will be slightly cooler in October. The weather on the South Island will be slightly cooler with a range of temperatures of approx 7-20C (min-max).

Citizens of the United Kingdom, most EU countries, USA, Canada, Australia and South Africa do not currently require a visa to travel to New Zealand. If in doubt, check with the nearest embassy or contact Exodus.

A lot of people give themselves an extra day or two on the way out to combat any ill effects from the long flight, but you will have plenty of time to rest when you arrive (if you would prefer to do so) so it shouldn't cause any major problems! If you'd like to have flights on different dates, just let Exodus know.

Most clients are eligible to travel via the US under the US Visa Waiver Programme, however to do this you must register for an ETA (Electronic Travel Authority). This must be done prior to departure - more details can be found at www.exodus.co.uk/usvisa.
