Hi

I am a 29 year old female from Brisbane, Australia who will be travelling alone to NZ on the Grand Explorer tour departing Christchurch on the 12th August.

Would love to get to know anyone who may be joining me on the tour.

Drop me a line.

Hey

First off, before I say anything, just want to make it clear, I'm not going on your trip.

However, I've gone on this tour would be more than happy to share my experiences and share any advice or tips you'd like.

Keep in mind though, I went in October 2000, so the tours changed somewhat.

Hi Jo Jo

I am a 31 year old female from Melbourne who will be doing the same tour on my own. I am arriving in Christchurch on the 10th August to spend a day looking around the city prior to the tour. I was originally scheduled to go on the tour starting in Auckland but this was changed due to it being overbooked. I am glad however to be starting in Christchurch.

When do you arrive?

Cheers

Erryn

Hi Erryn,

I also arrive on the 10th in Christchurch - same idea as you - do explore the city before the tour. Great minds think alike!

Hi Erryn,

I am s..? I am staying at the Bealey Avenue Motel just down the road from Bealey's. My email address is unijo@bigpond.net.au if that is easier!!
