Changing the date of your booked tour is possible. However, bear in mind that changing the date may mean some of your previous arrangements are not possible, or costs may vary from those first quoted. If you do need to change your travel dates, the earlier you can let us know, the better. After carefully selecting the various accommodations and inclusions in your itinerary, the last thing we would want is for them to be unavailable when your dates change.
Your personal travel specialist will of course give you the best advice at the time to help you with your decision.
You can cancel your tour at any time for any reason however please be aware that cancellation fees may apply.
No one books a tour thinking they're going to have to cancel it, but we understand that sometimes life has other plans for us! Our full terms and conditions can be viewed here. We strongly advise that you purchase travel insurance that will cover you for any cancellation or interruption costs. See below for our recommendation!

We have already recommended Fine Tours New Zealand, and specifically Chelsea, to our family
and friends. Given the high likelihood that we will return to this wonderful country someday,
Chelsea and Fine Tours New Zealand will be our first call.
We are so grateful to have you as our travel agent. From our first conversation last August, your
knowledge and enthusiasm helped guide us to select the perfect first journey to New Zealand. It
included all the natural wonders and outdoor activities we liked and allowed enough time in most
places to relax and enjoy our surroundings.
