CLOTHING<br />
Dress is informal and relaxed on most occasions. Smart casual clothes<br />
are acceptable at most restaurants. The seasons are more pronounced<br />
and the weather is more changeable. In summer a jacket and sweater<br />
should be included in your luggage should the weather turn cooler or<br />
you visit higher altitudes. You can expect some rain, so also include<br />
a light rainproof jacket or coat. If visiting between May to September,<br />
pack warm winter garments and layer your clothing. You will have the<br />
option to relax and unwind in thermal hot pools so don’t forget to pack<br />
your swimwear.<br />
HEALTH INSURANCE<br />
New Zealand’s public and private medical/hospital facilities provide a<br />
high standard of treatment and service. However, it is important to note<br />
that services are not free, except in the case of an accident. It is advised<br />
that you arrange your own health insurance before leaving home.<br />
TRAVEL INSURANCE<br />
Travel Insurance for all travellers is strongly recommended. Please<br />
speak to your Travel Agent to arrange this.<br />
CALLING HOME<br />
YABBA is a prepaid calling card that you can use from almost any<br />
touch-tone phone making it easy and convenient to pay for your phone<br />
calls. YABBA offers fantastic calling rates if you need to make a call<br />
while travelling. You pay as you go, giving you more control over your<br />
spending. Additional fee may apply if calling from your hotel.<br />
HOTEL INFORMATION<br />
As a general rule all hotels used on <strong>Grand</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong> <strong>Tours</strong> will have as<br />
standard the following room amenities: hair dryers, iron & ironing<br />
boards, tea & coffee making facilities. Therefore it is not necessary for<br />
you to carry these items.<br />
Standard hotel check in time is 2pm. If travellers require immediate<br />
check in on arrival, a pre tour night will need to be purchased in order<br />
for this to be guaranteed.<br />
