Beginning with trips to Mount Cook more than 20<br />

years ago Christchurch based Reid Tours now run tours<br />

throughout New Zealand and Australia.<br />

Historically, their travellers<br />

have come from the Canterbury<br />

region, however recent<br />

years have seen an ever-expanding<br />

client base from all over New Zealand<br />

and overseas.<br />

The New Zealand tours include<br />

tours of the South Island and New Zealand<br />

as well as more specific location<br />

and event based tours.<br />

Tours to Hokianga and Cape Reinga,<br />

The East Cape and Nelson/Marlborough<br />

are also a part of the menu.<br />

Reid Tours have found many New<br />

Zealand travellers who have seen much<br />

of the world, but are yet to see key<br />

parts of New Zealand.<br />

They are always pleasantly surprised<br />

by the things they already know<br />

about and the many surprises along<br />

the way.<br />

Australian tours began with a trip<br />

to the ever popular Tasmania and then<br />

expanded to include Cairns and Far<br />

North Queensland and now Adelaide<br />

and the Murray River.<br />

All three of these tours give up different<br />

parts of Australia’s history and<br />

landscape. From the convict history<br />

of Tasmania to tropical Far North<br />

Queensland to the amazing night sky<br />

of the outback to cruising the Murray<br />

river, you can appreciate all that Australia<br />

has to offer and come to understand<br />

the difficulties and successes in<br />

breaking in this great continent.<br />

Reid Tours’ policy is that you should<br />

have a memorable holiday experience,<br />

not just a long bus trip. Listening to<br />

the feedback from their valued customers<br />

they have developed their tours<br />

to satisfy customer demand and offer<br />

the very best in boutique rail and coach<br />

travel experiences.<br />

Key improvements over the years<br />

have seen the additional service of<br />

home pickups and return airfares from<br />

anywhere in New Zealand for all tours<br />

longer than a day.<br />

To make their overnight tours all the<br />

more enjoyable they have incorporated<br />

shorter days and multi-night stays<br />

into the tour schedules and carefully<br />

limit numbers on coach tours keeping<br />

20 percent of seats free to make for a<br />

more pleasant journey.<br />

Additionally, providing high quality<br />

coaches and accommodation, such as<br />

the three nights at Hilton Queenstown<br />

on our New Zealand tours, means a few<br />

touches of luxury along the way.<br />

The staff at Reid Tours pride themselves<br />

in producing a quality, enjoyable<br />

experience and peace of mind<br />

for both our travellers and their loved<br />

ones at home.<br />

The testament to that is the large<br />

number of repeat clients, many of<br />

whom book on new tours before they<br />

have even seen an itinerary.<br />

This speaks of the level of trust,<br />

confidence and enjoyment their clients<br />

have in the product Reid Tours deliver.<br />
