What isn't included on an escorted or independent coach tour?

Each tour varies with its inclusions so check each one. Our detailed tour pages let you list the different inclusions. As a general rule escorted tours include the must see attractions such as Waitomo Caves, Milford Sound etc (where explicable). Also they will include all your accommodations, transport, breakfast each day and nearly all dinners. Sometimes a few evenings are left for you to do your own thing. Airport arrival and departure transfers are usually included when arriving and staying at accommodation arrived by the tour company. The advantage of independent touring is that you get to decide exactly what you want to include, where you want to stay, what you want to do and for how long. Our itineraries and quotes clearly state all inclusions.
