We are Pet Friendly!

Increasingly people are going on holiday with their pets, I know I do!

I search for and book accommodation that is pet friendly along with looking at places to visit that are pet friendly. For example, eating establishments that have advertised that are pet friendly. My mum has been a member of the NZMCA for years and has two dogs of her own, and through her experiences, I have learnt that with this one club alone within New Zealand, just how many people travel with their pets these days.


When it comes to booking activities, you have your furry companion to consider and work out what to do with them when you are away on tour. You are not allowed to leave pets unattended in accommodation, which leaves you looking to see if there are any pet sitters or animal daycare available nearby.

If there is nothing, that limits you with what you can do.


When you book with us, you are booking with someone who is a dog owner themselves, and someone who has had much experience on travelling with a pet for years.

By booking with us, you are booking out a private tour. It will only be your group and the driver, meaning there are no other strangers joining you in the vehicle.

Please note, there may be other customers at the cellar doors, cafes and restaurants.

It is possible to book out an entire establishment for a private event, this does come at an additional cost and the price will be available on application.


We welcome you to bring your furry companions along, please let us know if they are travelling with you, and we can create a pet friendly itinerary that includes pet friendly establishments!

Please note the following terms and conditions in regards to pets;
