Find Travel Companions

By backpackguru (Photographic Voyage) on Nov 26, 2011
Transportation in New Zealand can get expensive, mainly because you have to rent a car to see anything. Most of the sights and attractions are not in cities, but instead the most remote parks and wilderness. This is a country that is about trekking, getting outdoors, and getting away from everything. As such, public transportation is virtually impossible if you hope to have a full experience. To save some money, find some travel companions when you arrive. That way you can split up the rental car expenses as well as the driving. Do make sure ahead of time that you're priorities and travel styles are the same. It's important that everyone gets along over the course of the trip or else the experience could be disastrous.
