WelcoMe to the uniteD kingDoM

WelcoMe to the united kinGdoM 

Whether its history, family, picturesque countryside or the latest fashion trends, the United Kingdom offers something for all. 

A holiday destination just waiting to be explored or revisited. 

enGland 

So many sites to see and explore all within easy reach. From 

Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of Shakespeare to beautiful 

thatched cottage villages in the Cotswold. Football games at Old 

Trafford or shows at Londons West End. Walk in the footsteps of the 

latest Princess at West Minister Abbey or view the balcony of the 

famous ‘two kisses’. The diversity of things to see or do is enormous. 

scotland 

Full of history, stunning scenery and castles plus of course the 

many myths. So a visit to Loch Ness is a must for you to decide 

for yourself. Perhaps a Scottish whisky maybe required after the 

experience! The locals are truly friendly and may talk about the many 

clans and invite you to sample haggis. 

Wales 

Offering much beauty with its dramatic coastlines, rolling moorlands 

and sweeping mountains. Many a national park is waiting to be 

explored. Complimented by over 400 castles steeped in history. 

Cardiff being the Welsh capital offers a mix of castles to cafes. 

rePublic oF ireland 

The Emerald Isle as its known is very inviting. With its Blarney Stone to 

kiss and its Guinness to drink. Dublin being the Irish capital is famous 

for the Guinness storehouse, U2 roots and St Patrick Day celebrations. 

northern ireland 

Only 136 kilometres in length and 112 kilometres wide but this small 

country has made its mark. Famous for politics, history, religion and 

natural beauty. Its most known attraction is the Giants Causeway, 

to see where giants walked. But did you know that the HMS Titanic 

was built here. A must see is the Titanica Exhibition at Ulster Folk 

and Transport Museum in Belfast. 

the essentials 

What travel documents do i need? 

On arrival in the UK, New Zealand visitors only need a valid passport to 

establish identity and nationality and can stay in Britain for six months when 

on holiday (check details with your Travel Agent). Travellers also need to have 

sufficient means of support to maintain and accommodate themselves and hold 

a return ticket back to their departure point or another onward destination. 

Do i need medical insurance? 

Yes! New Zealand nationals who become ill while in Britain are eligible for free 

emergency treatment in the A & E departments of National Health Service 

hospitals because of a reciprocal health care agreement with the UK. However 

it is strongly recommended that you obtain adequate medical insurance, as 

you would still have to pay for prescriptions and dental treatment. 

Do i need an international Driver’s licence? 

If you have a valid NZ Driver’s Licence then you can drive for up to 12 

months in Britain. 

iMPortant inForMation 

What are the oPeninG hours oF shoPs, 

Post oFFices and banks? 

Shops are generally open Monday to Saturday 9am to 5.30pm, 

although many department stores open until 6pm and have a late 

night on Wednesday or Thursday until 7pm or 8pm. Larger shops 

may also open on Sunday from 11am until 5pm. Post Offices are 

generally open from 9am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday. Main Post 

Offices also open 9am to 12.30pm on Saturday. Please note that 

exact opening hours do vary depending on the size and location of 

the branch. 

Banks are usually open Monday to Friday from 9.30am to 4.30pm 

but do vary their hours a little from branch to branch. Some major 

banks are open on Saturdays (usually busy shopping centres) and 

for a few hours on Sundays, but all are closed on public holidays. 

Some banks in Scotland close for an hour at lunchtime. Banks are 

open 24 hours a day at most major UK airports. 

hoW Much should i tiP? 

Some restaurant bills include a service charge. Where a service 

charge is not included, it is customary to leave a tip of 10-15% of 

the bill. 

porterage: 75p per suitcase. 

taxis: 10-15% of the fare. 

hairdressers: £1-2 for the person who washes your hair and 10% 

for the hairdresser who cuts your hair. 

pubs: tips are not expected but if you are happy with the service, it 

is customary to offer to buy the person behind the bar a drink. 

theatres/cinemas and petrol stations: tips are not expected. 

Note: this is intended as a guide only. 

can i claim back Vat? 

Value Added Tax (VAT) is currently set at 20%. If applicable, the appropriate 

form for the claim-back scheme is completed in full at the time of purchase. 

You will then be asked to produce the form and the goods for inspection 

when you leave the European Union. It is advisable to contact the airline or 

shipping company in advance if you are reclaiming VAT on goods not in your 

hand luggage. 

Please note that not all shops operate the Retail Export Scheme (look for a 

sign near the entrance) and those that do often have a minimum purchase 

price. You may also be charged an administration fee. The other main 

restriction is that you must reclaim VAT within 3 months from the end of the 

month in which the goods were purchased. VAT on services such as hotels, 

restaurants or car hire cannot be reclaimed. VAT cannot be claimed back 

once you have returned to New Zealand. 

Note: Visitors leaving Britain for a final destination within the European Union are not eligible to receive VAT 

refunds.

WelcoMe to london 

The capital city of England is home to famous monuments and landmarks. Offering a real mix of old and new with palaces and 

pubs, churches and cathedrals, battlements and bridges all reflecting London’s long and varied past. This city offers something 

for everyone. Whether its history, entertainment, shopping, sport or culture it has it all. And its all at your fingertips. 

What you need to knoW about london hotels 

our hotels are carefully chosen to maximise value for money and comfort. however, 

it is important to note a few details, to help you choose the best option for you. 

• The standard of hotels in London, especially in the budget range, is often lower 

than equivalently priced hotels in New Zealand, Australia or the USA. The general 

hotel amenities may also be quite basic in the lower price ranges. 

• Budget hotels often do not have porters. Lifts can be very small and may not 

reach all levels of the hotel. If you require the assistance of a lift please ask for a 

lower floor or check if the hotel lift goes to all levels. 

• Room sizes can vary greatly, even within one hotel, and may be quite small. 

• Many hotels in London are in buildings that may be up to several centuries old. 

Although this adds to the charm and atmosphere, it may affect the number of 

modern amenities available. 

• Single rooms may only offer one single bed. If you specifically require a room with 

a double bed for single use, the double room rate may apply. 

• Triple rooms MAIDA VALE often offer two single beds or one double bed, plus a rollaway.

“Live like a lord... castle accommodation in England, Scotland, Wales and 

Ireland”. Britain is blessed with stunning castles, many with history going back 

centuries. Over the generations these fabulous buildings have evolved into 

historic hotels which blend modern comforts into the grandeur and style of 

days gone by. Some are now internationally recognised 4-star or better hotels, 

while others still remain in the original family ownership, with only a few guest 

rooms – each one distinctive and very comfortable. “Live the fairytale… stay in 

a castle”. 

With a selection of over 50 magnificent castles available. See our map for locations. 

These properties are available on request. We are featuring just a select few but other castles are 

also available – please ask for details. 

Prices range from $126 to $203 per person per night share twin. Plus weekend and peak season 

supplements apply to some castles and are additional. 

tUllocH castle 

tulloch castle Drive, Dingwall 

iv15 9ND, scotland 

Tulloch Castle is a magnificent fortress dating 

back to the 12th century, with a ready welcome 

for travellers. 

When you arrive, you will be met with countless 

period features, including the 250-year-old panelled 

Great Hall. With unrivalled hospitality, superb food 

and an ideal location, make this your home as you 

travel the Highlands. All old castles should have a 

ghost, and Tulloch is said to have one in the shape 

of the “Green Lady”. Now, just how green she is, 

and the details of her existence, we do not know, 

but she has been seen over the centuries. 

A portrait of her hangs in the Grand Hall. 

Tulloch Castle has just 20 well appointed 

bedrooms, all with their own unique character and 

charm. 

stUdley castle 

castle Road, studley 

B80 7aJ, england 

Deep in the Warwickshire countryside set in the 

tranquil surroundings of its own 28-acre estate, 

Studley Castle is a place of great character and 

charm. Close to historic Stratford-upon-Avon 

and the Cotswolds, the hotel was built in the 

Victorian times in the style of a medieval castle. 

With its elegant Georgian dining room and lounge, 

it provides the perfect setting for a unique stay. 

It is an ideal oasis of calm from which to explore 

the heritage sites and gardens of the surrounding 

area. 

The hotel has 57 high-quality bedrooms, including 

suites, superior and standard rooms. 

tHe castle at taUnton 

castle Green, taunton 

ta1 1Nf, england 

The Castle at Taunton is steeped in the drama 

and romance of English history. Once a Norman 

fortress, it has been welcoming travellers to the 

town since the 12th century. In 1685, the Duke 

of Monmouth’s officers were heard “roystering at 

the Castle Inn” before their defeat by the forces of 

King James II at Sedgemoor. Shortly after, Judge 

Jeffreys held his Bloody Assize in the Great Hall of 

the castle. Today the castle lives at peace with its 

turbulent past but preserves the atmosphere of its 

ancient tradition. The Chapman family have been 

running the hotel for 60 years and, in that time, 

it has acquired a worldwide reputation for the 

warmth of its hospitality. 

There are 44 luxurious, beautifully decorated 

bedrooms, all of a distinctive style, each 

welcoming and comfortable with a sense of home 

as befits a famous family-owned hotel.

The landscape of rolling hills, towering peaks and 

plummeting waterfalls together with medieval 

castles, deep mines, roads old and new and 

ground-breaking modern architecture all reflect a 

history of the conquest, exploitation yet amazing

beautiful coastline. The local culture remains quite 

distinctive with the Welsh having retained their

nor two cities are alike. Each region has its own distinctive traditions, food, culture and sports. In short, Europe provides a 

wider range of holidays than anywhere else in the world, and its countless attractions are served by excellent tourist facilities. 

How it woRKs 

Our Europe section begins with a selection of products which are available in more than one country and which are ideal for 

helping you discover the essence of Europe. These products include European Rail Passes, Car Hire, Cooking Schools, River 

Cruises, Walking & Cycling and more. This is followed by the ‘Country’ sections - e.g. France, Italy, Spain, Germany and so on.

One glance at the prices will convince you that you’ll be driving through Europe at a very low cost. 

dRiveR ReQUiReMents 

To be eligible to lease a Peugeot, regardless of your 

nationality, you must have your normal residence 

outside the European Union, be visiting the EU for 

less than 185 days in a 12 month period, and not 

be undertaking any form of employment during 

your stay. Drivers must be over 18yrs (no maximum 

age limit applies) and hold a valid driving licence 

recognised in the European Union. If you hold a 

full New Zealand drivers licence, an international 

drivers’ licence (in conjunction with your New 

Zealand licence) is recommended (compulsory in 

Italy and outside the EU). 

The leased vehicle may be driven only by the 

registered driver (“Contract Holder”) or his/her 

Partner (i.e. spouse or legal co-habitant), direct 

descendants or ascendants, if they qualify for the 

scheme. Additional drivers may also drive, as long 

as the Contract Holder is in the vehicle with them, 

and they qualify for the scheme. This law has 

no effect on the vehicle insurance, which covers 

all drivers regardless of their relationship to the 

Contract Holder. 

see BefoRe yoU cHoose 

We highly recommend that you visit your local 

Peugeot showroom to ensure your luggage will fit 

in the model of your choice, as you are unable to 

change your vehicle on collection. 

Note: 207SW, 5008, 807, Partner and Expert models are not available to 

view in New Zealand. 508 and 508SW available to view from early 2012. 

How to BooK yoUR PeUgeot 

Availability in the most popular models (including 

all automatic vehicles, and vehicles with GPS) can 

be limited if booking after April/May. Therefore, we 

recommend you book your Peugeot EuroLease as 

early as possible, to avoid disappointment. 

Completion of a Peugeot EuroLease Booking 

Form (featuring Booking Conditions), copy of 

contract holder’s passport and $250 deposit is 

required at the time of booking. If you are booking 

within 28 days of collection a higher deposit 

may be required and all documentation must be 

completed within 24 hours. 

All bookings are subject to availability. 

Credit card details are compulsory and required at contract stage. 

Benefits of PeUgeot eURolease 

Not only does Peugeot EuroLease get all the 

paperwork out of the way before you leave 

New Zealand, you will also experience the 

following benefits: 

• Brand new car. 

• Anti-theft device. 

• Minimum driver age of 18yrs. 

• No maximum driver age. 

• No insurance excess (this is usually over 

NZ$1000). 

• No additional driver fees. 

• You can drive your Peugeot in more countries. 

• No airport / train station “service” fees. 

• No waiting in queues while clients sign/query 

contracts. 

• Includes personal accident insurance benefits. 

• No hefty fuel surcharges when you forget to 

return your car full of fuel (you should return 

it empty!). 

BooKing tiPs 

• Choose the smallest vehicle that you, your 

passengers and your luggage will fit into (under 

the luggage cover). Not only will you save 

money on fuel, but you will also find it easier to 

explore those quaint narrow village streets, plus 

parking should be a lot simpler. 

• Book a car with GPS - otherwise known as a 

“marriage saver”! 

• Diesel vehicles are considerably more fuel 

efficient - saving you lots of $$$!

With so much to see in Europe there’s no better way to travel than on a relaxing cruise which will take you to your next 

destination quickly and with far less fuss. Unpack only once and see a multitude of extraordinary wealth, sights and sounds 

all over Europe. From its Northern Lights to its southern shores, Europe will keep on thrilling and surprising as you take the 

trip of a lifetime! Many capital cities of Europe are on the Mediterranean Sea, so relaxing on a cruise is a great way to see 

them all. Cruise at night, and visit a new port each day. 

tyPes of cRUises 

Europe cruising can offer many different varieties of sailings, from ocean voyages to river cruising, which give you very 

different experiences. To help you choose the correct cruise and itinerary for you, it is important to understand the differences. 

Ocean cruise ships are larger, can cover more territory and offer a wider range of entertainment and onboard activities. 

The experience on a large cruise ship is as much about the ship experience as the places you visit. Large cruise lines offer 

unrivalled service, food and most have child facilities 

available. There will never be a dull moment, from 

lounging by the pool to playing sports or having a 

spa treatment. In the evenings there are several 

choices of dining, from fine dining to casual, your 

options are endless. Ocean cruises offer night 

entertainment, from stand-up comedy to Broadway 

shows. River cruising offers an entirely different 

experience. You will wake up every morning to a 

different view outside your window as you make 

your way down the rivers of Europe. 

It is sightseeing in style and offers deluxe 

accommodation, as well as superb dining and 

often includes wine with dinner. River cruising 

sails into the heart of almost every river 

destination and docks in the centre of quaint 

villages, something that ocean cruises are 

unable to offer. Food is sourced from local 

markets offering the freshest menu to create 

culinary specialties, thus allowing you to 

experience regional food and wine. 

There are no children’s facilities onboard 

and the ambience is often very relaxed.

knoW aBoUt paris 

hoteLs 

Our hotels are carefully chosen to maximise value 

for money, comfort and location. However it is 

important to note a few details to help use choose 

the best option for you. 

• The standard of hotels in Paris, especially the 

budget range is often lower than equivalent 

prices hotels in New Zealand, Australia or the 

USA. The general services and amenities may 

also be quite basic. 

• Many hotels are in building that maybe up to 

several centuries old. Although this adds to 

the charm it may affect the number of modern 

facilities available such as lifts and double 

glazing. 

• Budget and standard hotels often don’t have 

porters. 

• Room sizes can vary greatly even within one 

hotel. Rooms may be quite small. 

• Single rooms may only offer one single bed. 

If you specifically require a double bed the 

double room rate would apply. 

• Triple rooms often offer two single beds or one 

double bed plus a rollaway. 

• Not all hotels offer air-conditioning.

villa stays in fRance 

Discover the hidden treasures of France and the variety each region offers. Stroll through picturesque villages and find fresh local 

produce and wine to savour along the way. Discover the French way of life from a farmhouse nestled amongst olive groves or 

lavender fields, from an elegant chateau or a sophisticated villa. 

How to cHoose yoUR villa 

The first step is to decide which region you’d like 

to visit, then how many people you’ll be travelling 

with. The facilities and style of each villa can 

vary, although all are self-contained, so it is also 

important to think about what you want from your 

villa (for example a pool). 

information on all our properties throughout 

france is available online at: 

www.goeurope.co.nz 

This website gives you pictures, maps and detailed 

descriptions of all the villas in our program, as 

well as availability for each week of the year. This 

means you can find out immediately if the week 

you are planning to stay in France is available at 

your chosen property! Your Travel Agent can then 

book your preferred villa or apartment for you. 

wHeRe to go 

From Brittany’s craggy headlands to the opulent 

Cote d’Azur, through the majestic Loire Valley, 

the ancient Dordogne landscapes to the heady 

scents of Provence…we have properties in prime 

locations, with the highest standards of comfort. 

Burgundy 

This region is a gastronome’s delight, with 

delicious food and great wines. Burgundy is a 

colourful land of green, rolling hills, woodlands 

and waterways. 

cote d’azur 

120kms of sun drenched shores, a playground 

for water sports of all kinds with seafronts like 

nowhere else in the world. 

Provence 

Villages with cobbled streets perch precariously 

above a landscape that resembles an endless 

garden. Under the hot southern sun, the scent of 

lavender is everywhere. 

wHat yoU need to Know…

weekly basis (Saturday to Saturday), although 

some exceptions apply. All costs listed are per

be paid in full immediately on confirmation. We 

recommend travel insurance.

BUON GIORNO! WELCOME TO ITALY 

From art to food, from stunning and varied countryside to flamboyant fashion, Italy has it all. It boasts one of the most diverse 

and beautiful landscapes in Europe, the world’s greatest hoard of art treasures, a mild climate, and most important of all for 

many, a delicious and authentic national cuisine. Rome is one of the world’s greatest tourist destinations. With a history 

spanning more than 28 centuries, it isn’t surprising Romans regard their home as the Eternal City. An ancient place packed 

with the relics of over two thousand years of inhabitation, yet it’s so much more than an open-air museum: its culture, its 

food, its people make up a modern, vibrant city that is utterly unique. Venice is one of the most romantic and unique cities in 

the world, with its network of canals and bridges, beautiful buildings and gondolas. Florence is the birthplace of the 

Renaissance. This beautiful city was Europe’s most important cultural centre between the 14th and 16th centuries. Highlights 

include the magnificent Piazza del Duomo and the famous Ponte Vecchio Bridge. 

Southern italy is a sun-bleached land of spectacular coastlines, silent, windswept hills and proud towns, an altogether rawer 

prospect than the manicured north. It has stunning scenery, graphic ruins, fabulous beaches, and the Mediterranean’s largest 

Island, Sicily. Stretching 50km along the southern side of the Sorrentine Peninsula, is the amalfi Coast, a postcard vision of 

Mediterranean beauty. This UNESCO-protected site is one of Italy’s top tourist destinations. Northern italy is a fascinating 

area of historical wealth and natural diversity, boasting some of the country’s most spectacular coastline as well as some of 

the most beautiful cities, such as Verona. A popular destination is the region of Cinque terre — an area which refers to five 

unique villages that ‘cling’ to the edge of steep cliffs. Mountains are covered by terraced vineyards, olive trees and countless 

dry stone walls that slope steeply down towards the sea and the five fishing villages.

VILLA STAYS IN ITALY 

We offer a wonderful selection of independent villas, historic farmhouses, medieval castles and apartments throughout 

Tuscany as well as Chianti, Umbria, Lazio, Sardinia and the Amalfi Coast and more. Explore areas rich in history and 

gastronomy, and sample local products such as the world renowned olive oil and wine. 

WHY BOOK A VILLA? 

The beauty of a villa holiday is having the 

opportunity to immerse yourself in the local way 

of life and soak up the atmosphere of your chosen 

region from a comfortable and homely base. 

A villa holiday is an excellent idea for a special 

celebration, be it a family gathering or a perhaps 

a wedding anniversary or birthday. Villas are also 

great for travelling with a group of friends. With a 

villa stay, you have the freedom to do as much or 

as little as you please. 

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR VILLA 

The first step is to decide which region you’d like 

to visit, then how many people you’ll be travelling 

with. The facilities and style of each villa can 

vary, although all are self-contained, so it is also 

important to think about what you want from your 

villa. For example, do you wish to have a property 

with a pool? Would you like a villa or apartment 

in a small hamlet of others, or would you prefer 

complete privacy? Many of the larger villas, estates 

and rural hamlets have been converted to provide a 

range of apartments or smaller cottages, where you 

may share the grounds or pool with other guests. 

information on all our properties throughout 

italy is available online at: www.goeurope.co.nz 

This website gives you pictures, maps and detailed 

descriptions of all the villas in our program, as 

well as availability for each week of the year. This 

means you can find out immediately if the week 

you are planning to stay in Italy is available at your 

chosen property! Your Travel Agent can then book 

your preferred villa or apartment for you. 

WHERE TO GO 

Italy is a land of contrasts and history – the 

hardest part of your villa holiday could well be 

deciding which region to visit! We can offer you 

villa and apartment stays in Italy’s most beautiful 

holiday destinations. These include Tuscany, 

Umbria, Chianti, Florence, Venice, the Amalfi 

Coast, Capri, Sicily and the Northern Lakes 

District, to name a few. 

tuscany Without a doubt one of Italy’s best 

known holiday destinations, Tuscany is renowned 

for its olive oil, vineyards, rolling hills and 

picturesque villages and towns. 

Umbria This is the green heart of Italy, dotted with 

ancient monasteries and beautifully preserved 

hamlets. 

amalfi Coast Overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, 

the Amalfi Coast area is a stunning holiday spot. 

Northern lakes Nestled in the hills of northern 

Italy, steeped in history, are Lake Garda and 

Lake Maggiore. 

During your villa stay, why not get a “taste” of the real italy at our cooking school at 

Ristorante Villa Pitiana in tuscany? 

one, three and five day courses are available and, best of all, they take place in the morning, 

leaving your afternoons free to relax or explore. 

Villas also available in France (page 85), Portugal & Spain. 


WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 

• Villas and apartments are generally rented on 

a weekly basis (Saturday to Saturday), although 

some exceptions apply. All costs listed on page 

97 are per villa per week. 

• As many villas are in the countryside, and not 

necessarily within easy reach of public transport or 

shops, we highly recommend hiring a car so you are 

completely free to explore the surrounding area. Please 

refer to our latest DTN Drive Holidays brochure for 

rates and information on the best car choice for you. 

• Upon confirmation of your chosen property and 

requested dates, a deposit of 25% of your rental price 

must be paid, plus a $65 booking fee, with full payment 

due at least 42 days prior to arrival. Bookings made 

within 42 days of arrival must be paid in full immediately 

on confirmation. We recommend travel insurance. 

• Extra charges such as heating, final cleaning 

and security deposits may apply, and are payable 

direct to the property (credit cards not accepted). 

Please ask your Travel Agent for details of these 

prior to booking, as they do vary by property. 

• Arrival time is between 5pm and 8pm. Departure 

time is between 8am and 10am. 

• Bathroom, bed and kitchen linen is provided, 

however pool towels are not supplied. 

• Villas and apartments are unserviced, unless 

otherwise specified. 

• Strict cancellation and amendment fees apply – 

please ask for full details prior to booking. 

VILLA DRIVE PACKAGE 

A holiday in an Italian villa is an unforgettable 

experience, and a Hertz rental car is the ideal 

complement to your villa stay. Ask us about tailormaking 

a villa drive package for your preferred 

property and car type. Please refer to the DTN 

Drive Holidays brochure for more information on 

car rental.

OLA! WELCOME TO PORTUGAL 

For visitors, this far side of Europe offers more than just beautiful beaches and delectable port wine. Enjoy invigorating sea 

breezes, sumptuous seafood and art-deco architecture. Portugal has an old-fashioned charm, with medieval castles and 

picture-perfect villages scattered over coastlines and hillsides. Spread across steep hillsides that overlook the Rio Tejo, 

lisbon offers all the delights you’d expect of Portugal’s star attraction, yet with half the fuss of other European capitals. 

Gothic cathedrals, majestic monasteries and quaint museums are all part of the colourful cityscape, but the real delights of 

discovery lie in wandering the narrow lanes of Lisbon’s lovely backstreets.

THE GREEk ISLANDS 

Greece divides into over 2000 islands stretching from the Ionian Sea in the West to the Aegean Sea in the East. With 

landscapes of terraced fields, olive groves and vineyards, the islands are divided into six groups plus Crete (the largest Greek 

Island). One great appeal of the Greek Islands is the sheer variety of attractions and activities on offer and choosing the right 

Island for the type of holiday you wish to experience is vital. One of the most popular groups is the Cyclades. A dramatic 

volcanic archipelago of stunning golden beaches, dazzling whitewashed villages, twisting cobbled alleyways and pretty hilltops 

carpeted with windmills and blue-domed churches that typify the Greek Islands ideal. In the Cyclades Group, mykonos and 

santorini, both offer stylish hotels and chic bars and nightclubs to complete the tourist experience. Nature lovers will love the 

hiking on naxos and snorkelling on Paros. While Ios, attracts visitors with its golden beaches and the characteristic Aegean 

architecture, also well known as the party island with lively atmosphere and endless fun. The most populous of the Greek 

Islands is Crete. In the Dodecanese Islands, visit rhodes magnificent walled old town, where the Knights of St John ruled 

from 1309-1523. samos in the Northeastern Aegean Islands produces fine wine, famed for its sweet Muscat dessert wine. 

Then to the West, the Ionian Islands with their golden sands and bright azure waters. One of which is Corfu, considered by

HEJ! WELCOME TO CROATIA 

Croatia offers medieval charm and 

some of the finest Roman ruins in 

Europe. Along its 1778km coastline, a 

glistening sea winds around rocky 

coves, lapping at pine-fringed 

beaches. Dubrovnik, known as ‘the 

pearl of the Adriatic’ has a magnificent 

curtain of walls surrounding marble 

streets and baroque buildings. 

Zagreb features sober Austro- 

Hungarian buildings in the town centre 

housing elegant restaurants and 

fashionable boutiques along with 

scruffy pubs and rowdy beer halls. 

split is more exciting than relaxing, 

with a massive port sending ferries out 

to the Dalmatian Islands and beyond 

and a harbourside promenade lined 

with cafés and high coastal mountains.

1.1 The services that we, GO Holidays Limited supply, consist of 

arranging and co-ordinating travel, entertainment and 

accommodation facilities and services, and making bookings, 

issuing tickets and issuing vouchers to be redeemed by 

suppliers. 

1.2 We undertake to perform these services with reasonable care 

and skill. We will not be liable for any loss or damage, or loss of 

enjoyment which result from the act, default or omission of any 

person other than ourselves or employees, or any cause 

beyond our control. This includes (but is not limited to) loss, 

damage or loss of enjoyment which arises directly or indirectly 

from an Act of God, weather disruptions, dangers incidental to 

sea, fire, breakdown in machinery or equipment, acts of

whether declared or not, hostilities, acts of terrorism, civil 

disturbances, strikes, lockouts, riots, deaths, pilferage, 

epidemics, quarantines or medical, customs or immigration or 

emigration regulations. 

1.3 We are not able to exercise control over services we do not 

supply directly, therefore we will not be responsible for any loss 

or damage arising from: 

• Any booking made directly with a service supplier by your 

travel agent or by yourself direct; or 

• Any services which are not provided by us and which are 

additional to those described in this brochure. 

1.4 We will endeavour to provide the most suitable travel 

arrangements to meet the particular requirements you make 

known to us. However, travel is an individual experience, and 

your preferences and opinions may vary from our own. For this 

reason, we cannot take responsibility for your individual 

satisfaction, neither can we take responsibility for weather nor 

for compatibility of fellow guests or staff during the course of 

your travel. 

2. supply of Travel, entertainment, accommodation service 

and Facilities 

2.1 When we make bookings with the providers of travel, 

accommodation, entertainment, activities, facilities or services 

(“the Suppliers”) we are acting as a booking agent for the 

Suppliers. 

2.2 All travel, entertainment, activities, and accommodation 

facilities or services are supplied directly to you by the Supplier. 

We have no control over the facilities or services themselves, or 

the manner in which they are provided by the Suppliers. 

Therefore you should be aware of the following conditions: 

• GO Holidays Limited will not be liable for any loss or damage 

of any kind that may arise from your use or consumption of, 

or inability to use or consume those facilities or services. 

• The provision of those facilities or services is subject to the 

terms and conditions of your contract with each Supplier. 

• Where for any reason, a Supplier is unable to provide 

particular facilities or services, then that Supplier may be 

entitled, under its contract with you to substitute those 

services or facilities with comparable or equivalent facilities 

or services without incurring any liability to you. You should 

check your contract with each Supplier. 

• All facilities or services described by us are subject to 

availability from the Supplier. 

• GO Holidays Limited will not be liable or responsible for any 

loss or damage relating to your baggage, personal 

possessions, health or welfare, or delays or travel disruptions 

unless these arise directly from the service we provide to you. 

3. Business Purposes 

You agree that where our services are acquired for business 

purposes, or where you hold yourself out as acquiring our 

services for business purposes, the Consumer Guarantees Act 

1993 will not apply to any supply of goods or services made 

under these conditions, and we will not be liable or responsible 

for any loss or damage of any kind to you, including any 

consequential loss or damage however it may be caused.

for services used 01 November 2011 – 31 October 2012 unless 

otherwise advised. Exchange rates used when costing this 

brochure are as at 14 September 2011. 

4.2 While we have exercised reasonable care and skill to ensure 

that the contents of this brochure are correct, accurate, and 

up-to-date at the time of publishing, please note that the 

contents of this brochure are based on information supplied to 

us by the Suppliers. We do not have, and cannot be reasonably 

expected to have, personal knowledge about all the facilities or 

services provided by each Supplier. 

4.3 Facilities or services may change after the date of publication. 

We endeavour to keep travel agents informed of any changes 

to information in this brochure that are brought to our attention. 

Prior to booking your ticket, you should ask your travel agent 

about any changes to the published information of which your 

agent may be aware. You should also make sure that if your 

travel agent is advised of changes that occur after booking, 

your travel agent is able to contact you. 

4.4 All maps, illustrations and photographs are for indicative 

purposes only and may not necessarily reflect actual places or 

positioning. 

4.5 Accommodation must be consecutive at the same hotel to 

qualify for free nights. Important: Hotels have the right to change 

conditions e.g. 5th night free. Bonus offers: e.g. free upgrade or 

late checkouts are subject to availability at time of stay. 

5. Prices 

5.1 All prices shown in this brochure are on a per person basis 

unless otherwise stated and are expressed in New Zealand 

dollars. Vehicle rates are per vehicle. 

5.2 Events beyond our control, such as currency fluctuations, 

changes to the price of aviation fuel or changes to the cost of 

services and facilities may result in the prices charged to you 

being different. 

5.3 It must be understood that if for any of the reasons mentioned 

in Clause 5.2 price increases or variation of terms are notified 

to us between the time of booking and departure, we reserve 

the right to vary the price to you up to the time of your 

departure. 

5.4 Prices are based on a composite package of land and air 

content. If one only is sought a different basis of cost will apply. 

5.5 All prices exclude travel agent service fees. 

6. Payment 

6.1 Certain Suppliers may also require a booking fee or deposit to 

be paid. 

6.2 A booking requested less than seven (7) days prior to departure 

may incur communication charges. 

6.3 Final payment shall in all cases be made not less than 30 days 

prior to departure. In some cases the terms of the tour or travel 

may require full payment at an earlier date. In that case you will 

be advised at the time your booking is processed. 

6.4 Credit Card not permitted unless travel agent acts as merchant. 

7. amendment or Cancellation 

7.1 If you wish, or circumstances require you to amend or cancel 

your booking for any reason, you should advise us in writing 

through your travel agent at the earliest possible time. 

7.2 Where you cancel any booking more than thirty (30) days prior 

to your departure you are likely to have to pay a fee. A 

cancellation fee of $200 will be imposed where cancellation is 

made within thirty (30) days prior to your departure, plus any 

suppliers charges as per note 7.3. Please refer however to 

Clause 7.6 for special conditions in some cases. 

7.3 The above cancellation fees are required to offset booking, 

communication and administration charges that will have 

already been incurred by us. In addition to our cancellation fee, 

you may also be required to pay cancellation fees imposed by 

our Suppliers (i.e. airlines, hotels, etc.) The amount of each 

Supplier’s cancellation fee is beyond our control, and payment 

is solely your responsibility. You should check with your travel 

agent concerning the amount of a Supplier’s cancellation fees. 

7.4 To the extent that we are able to do so (bearing in mind we are 

dependent upon third party availability beyond our control) we 

will be pleased to incorporate any reasonable changes you 

request. An itinerary change may attract a fee similar to 

cancellation fees in Clause 7.2 above to cover our 

administration costs. 

7.5 Some Suppliers may reserve the right to cancel or amend 

travel, accommodation, etc and GO Holidays must therefore 

reserve similar rights to cancel or amend any holiday 

arrangements. 

7.6 There are cases where the terms of supply as to refundability of 

pre-payments require provisions different from the above. In 

those cases the conditions specific to your tour will be advised 

to you at the time your booking is processed. 

8. Insurance 

We strongly recommend that as a minimum you insure yourself 

fully against cancellation, disruption, loss of luggage and 

personal property, and medical expenses. Your travel agent will 

be able to provide you with further information. 

9. Items not Covered 

Unless otherwise specified, the cost of meals, drinks, laundry, 

telephone calls, insurance, sightseeing tours, local taxes, 

airport departure taxes, aviation insurance levies and passport 

or visa application fees are not included. 

10. Package Costs 

Included in the tour costs are charges for normal booking 

procedure costs, communication costs, administration, 

research, printing, etc. Where the land arrangements of 

holidays are included in a composite package, an itemisation of 

costs will not be rendered. 

11. Visas / Passports 

For all holidays in this brochure you will require a valid 

passport. You are responsible for arranging your own passport, 

visa and health requirements (including inoculation where 

applicable). You should check with your travel agent who will 

be able to provide you with the necessary information. 

12. non-Use of services or Facilities 

If, of your own choice, you decide not to use part or parts of 

the arranged services or facilities, you will not be entitled to a 

refund from us (provided we have carried out our service with 

reasonable skill and care and to your requirements) and you 

may not be entitled to a refund from any Supplier. 

13. go Holidays Charter for addressing Problems 

In the event that you should strike a problem or you are 

dissatisfied with some aspect of the services or facilities during 

the course of your trip, our recommendation is that you take the 

matter up directly with the supplier of the service at the time, or 

as soon as practicable in the circumstances. This provides the 

opportunity to have the matter discussed and investigated on 

the spot and a remedy negotiated then and there to enable you 

to continue enjoying your holiday. We have found from 

experience that it is very difficult (in some countries impossible) 

for us to obtain redress for you once travel has been completed. 

If this does not work, we wish to be involved at the earliest 

possible moment and our commitment is that we will 

immediately work on resolving the issue to your satisfaction. 

14. Health or Disability 

Some Suppliers may reserve the right to refuse to carry or 

accommodate people who, because of a health condition or 

disability, may require services or facilities to be provided in a 

special manner or at a certain stage of pregnancy. You should 

check this with your travel agent. 

15. legal Claims 

The laws of New Zealand will govern any claims or legal action 

in connection with the provision of our services to you. Any 

claim or legal action against the Suppliers is likely to be subject 

to the terms of your contract with them, and may be governed 

by the laws of other countries.
