What other services does Highway 1 Tours & Transfers offer?

Alongside point-to-point private transfers we do airport and cruise port pickups, private day tours and sightseeing drives, by-the-hour driver hire, multi-day touring with the same driver, corporate and executive travel with invoicing, group and fleet bookings for larger parties, and rental car alternatives for visitors who'd rather not drive themselves.

Do you run private day tours and sightseeing trips?

Yes. The same professional driver can take you out for the day rather than straight to a destination, with the route shaped around what you'd like to see. Tell us the day you have in mind and we'll tailor it.

Do you cover airports and cruise ports?

Yes. We meet flights and ships nationwide, track arrival times, and drive from any New Zealand airport or cruise port to any address in the country.

Can businesses set up an account?

Yes. Corporate and executive travel, conference and event movements, and regular staff or client runs are all available, with consolidated invoicing on request.

Do you handle large groups?

Yes. Group and fleet bookings run multiple vehicles under one booking with a single point of contact, so weddings, teams, tour parties and conference groups all travel together.
