    For travelling with us for only the first 4 days you are able to leave the tour in Queesntown. Can you confirm if this would be on the Wednesday morning (the day we travel from Queenstown - Franz Josef).
    
    For the Saturday 29 August 2026 departure, we can look at adding a private room upgrade if you would prefer your own room. Private room upgrades are NZD $150 per room per night, and ensuite bathrooms are not guaranteed.
    
    For travelling from Queenstown to Dunedin, InterCity is usually the easiest option. You can book directly through the InterCity website, selecting Queenstown as your departure point and Dunedin as your destination. The offer a daily direct service to Dunedin.

    The tour includes a couple of walks along with plenty of stunning scenic stops throughout the journey. Your guide will also share information on available hikes at each overnight stop, so if you're keen to explore some of the local trails at your own pace, there will be plenty of opportunities to do so!

    Wild KiwiOperator•Written March 2026

    Our April departures currently have around 6-8 guests booked, with 2-3 of those in the 18-22 age range across all departure. We expect numbers to grow over the next couple of weeks as we get closer to departure. For May, bookings are still in the early stages with 2-3 guests so far, as it falls into our shoulder season which tends to be a little quieter.

    The spot left in shared dorm style, how many people are in the room and if will be all females?
  • 

    Wild KiwiOperator•Written March 2026

    We release unoccupied dorm beds two weeks prior to a tour's departure. If you are still interested in joining the tour there is a strong chance that we won't be able to get you in a dorm with your fellow travellers. If you are happy sharing a dorm with people outside of the group, we can request the hostel availability and hopefully secure you a spot!
