We’re easy to find

Christchurch – We are situated close to Bush Inn Shopping Mall at Church Corner and opposite the University Halls of Residence on Homestead Lane. The green, Obiter Bus, stops right outside our office. Airport pick ups and drop offs are quick and easy - you ring our agents at the airport and they take you to your car - you just drive away. When you return they drop you to the front door of the terminal. 

 

Queenstown –Pickups and drop offs are easy – we try to meet customers at the airport for pickups. Drop offs are at a car park close to the Remarkables Park Town Centre, on the corner of Hawthorne Drive and Cherry Blossom Ave. If possible, we will drop the customer to the airport. Otherwise, it is a 10 minute walk to the airport, busses run every 15 minutes and taxis are under $10.
