Hey I was looking at going on the Grand Explorer in July or August next year. Was just wondering if anyone else is thinking of going then as I will be most likely going alone.

Hi,

Hoping to join the GrandExplorer on July 18, 09 and finish up in Q'town. Probably going to stick around in Q'town for a couple of weeks as well. Anyone thinking of doing the same?

Im planning on going next June and then on to Australia afterwards =)

Hi all!

My mate and I are on the Grand Explorer departing on the 16th of July

Hello

That is the same tour that I am doing NaHdz (well hopefully once i book it) Are you guys spending extra time in NZ before or after the trip?

Hey Stella25!!

Yeah we're staying 1 night before in Auckland and 1 night after the tour in Christchurch

I can't wait

Where are you and your mate flying to NZ from NaHdz? Now I am finally 18 I should get into a travel agent and book. Did you book flights at the same time as booking the tour?

Im so excited already just need a camera and some winter woolies

We're flying out of Brissy, I haven't booked my flights yet but Im keeping an eye on them and when there's a good fare i'll snap it up!

I'm excited as well only 8 and a half months lol

Have you booked the extra accomodation yet?

Do you know who you are thinking of flying with? I think probably air nz for me.

Hey,

I am now thinking of doing the 16th july one now.

Will you guys be starting in Auckland??

Would be cool if we were all on the same flight

Hey guys!

I really haven't thought about flights yet lol I probably will go Air NZ though. Yeah I booked pre and post night accom when I booked the tour.

Im starting in Auckland and finishing up in Christchurch

Hi,

I will be starting in Auckland. I am having an extra day either side of the tour as well. Will you be doing the same Panda?

It would be cool to all be on the same flight. If you havent booked yet and wanted to be we could book at the same time if you wanted.

I will be doing the same but i was thinking of having 2 days before the tour and 1 after.

When i did my Uk and Ireland tour at the start of the year...it was good to have a couple of days to explore and just in case something happens eg. plane gets delayed.

I have added you to myspace...so we should start talking about how we are going to go about booking!
