Australia and New Zealand Trip Planners

Tailor-Made Itineraries from the USA and Canada

Australia and New Zealand Trip Planners

G’day, We at Go Walkabout Travel are your Australia and New Zealand Trip Planners.

With over 37 years of planning unique itineraries to Australia and New Zealand for clients from Canada and the USA, we have a wealth of knowledge we are waiting to share.

Our New Zealand Trip Planners and Australia Trip Planners were born and raised in the South Pacific, and you will receive our complete guidance in both countries to make your trip memorable.

Here is a list of just a few things that your Australia and New Zealand Trip Planner will assist you with when you have us design a specialist itinerary for a trip to Australia or New Zealand.

We can create a fantastic custom-designed itinerary that suits your wants, needs, and budget. We understand that not everyone has the same interests when traveling, so we work closely with you to determine what you love to do. This way, every dollar you spend on your trip goes toward something you truly enjoy!

2/ Assistance with planning your flights. Some of our clients like to book with Frequent Flyer Points when flying to Australia or New Zealand, and our Travel Agents assist them with planning flights and flight numbers as we would like them to have their land itinerary run as smoothly as possible. We also plan Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class on major airlines and offer guidance on how to get through airports and immigration and customs. We have flown these flight routes multiple times and can help you plan the best trip; we have you covered whether you depart from Toronto, Boston, Calgary, or Chicago.

3/ Your Australia Travel Planner will work with you to ensure that the regions you visit in Australia are at their optimal weather times. Ensure you read our blog post on the best time to visit Australia! If you plan to visit during cyclone season or a significant event that may increase the prices, we will help you plan and ensure you are routed to avoid potential issues!

4/ If you are interested in self-driving in New Zealand then your New Zealand Trip Planner will plan an itinerary just for you! This itinerary will consider distances traveled per day, things to see and do, and the types of roads (i.e., single-lane) on your road trip. They will also book accommodation from farm stays with a local family to hotels, apartments, or luxury lodges in New Zealand. On top of this, they will give you tips for staying safe when driving on the opposite side of the road! Remember, driving in New Zealand differs from driving in Houston, Denver, or New York! Did you know New Zealand has more sheep than actual people?

5/ Not everyone is set on having a customized tour designed for them; they would rather travel on a fully guided coach tour. Your Australia and New Zealand Trip Planner can book these for you. Some of our previous clients from Atlanta, Regina, and Ottawa opted to do a fully guided tour in one country and then a customized tour in another; we can also plan that for you! Whether a single Australia or New Zealand Itinerary or visiting both countries, we can make it happen.

6/Do you want to visit both New Zealand and Australia? Then, your New Zealand and Australia Travel Planners will map out the best routing for you to suit the weather in both countries, optimize your flight routing so that there is no backtracking and paying extra money, and make it all flow smoothly. We also like to make sure our clients from the East Coast, i.e., Baltimore, Philadelphia, or Washington, connect on the same day.

7/ We all know that the flights from Canada and the USA to Australia and New Zealand are long. If you are interested in a stopover in Fiji, The Cook Islands, or Tahiti/ French Polynesia, we can also plan this for you. Flights to the above destinations depart from Los Angeles and do not always operate daily. We find many of our clients who have a connecting flight to the southern hemisphere from New York, San Francisco, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, or Los Angeles like to have a stopover to break their long journey.

8/ Our trip planners for Australia and New Zealand spend considerable time in these countries. Unlike those who visit for just a week per year, our staff immerses themselves in the culture and lifestyle for many months to stay updated and provide you with valuable insider information. We strongly believe that to understand a place well, it takes more than just a few day trips.

9/ Your trip planners will offer advice about buying SIM cards, exchanging local currency, and more.

10/ In addition to the above, our Australia Trip Planner and New Zealand Trip Planner will provide you with access to our 24/7 emergency numbers in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific Islands. We are committed to ensuring your safety and well-being throughout your trip, and our team of experienced New Zealand and Australia Travel Planners will always be available to answer any questions or address any issues that may arise. You can rest assured that we have your back every step of the way.
