Routes and Pricing

We can drive you anywhere throughout the top of the South Island. Keep in mind that we are based in Murchison, and fare pricing is based on the round trip from there.

Pricing will be quoted based upon your needs. If a return trip is required there is no cost for the return leg and in this case there may be a fee for stopover time depending on length.

Some Sample fares of possible routes are below to give an idea of what pricing looks like. The price is the same whether I take 1 person or 4 people in the ride. We are licensed to carry up to 4 passengers, and can take 4 bikes and a decent amount of luggage as well. The bike-rack is a ROCKRACK made in NZ and it carries most styles of bike. A trailer is available if bike boxes need to be transported.
