Are there additional charges for using a credit card to pay?

No. We do not charge an additional fee for paying with your credit card.

Yes. Your bank may have some penalties for paying in foreign currencies so do the research and make sure they are not trying to charge you extra!

Paying in New Zealand dollars
Our tours are priced in New Zealand dollars. If you choose to pay with NZ currency your credit card supplier may charge you a currency conversion fee, much like if you went to a bank and purchased foreign currency.

Paying with other currencies
We do give you the option to pay in an alternative currency. For example: paying in US dollars using a credit issued in the US should mean there is no currency conversion fee applied by your credit card company.

Currency conversion rates
The currency conversion rates we use are supplied by our bank here in New Zealand.

To be clear, any additional fees incurred at the payment stage are due to bank fees or currency conversions, not us.
