TRAVEL AGENCY SERVICES
The Fine Travel Approach
As a boutique full-service travel agency, our approach is based on personal service and leveraging our knowledge, experience and longstanding travel relationships to plan holidays. Fine Travel clients work with their dedicated and experienced travel consultant who is responsible for as much or as little of their travel needs as required. Established in 2000, we offer the comfort and security of IATA Accreditation and TAANZ membership.

Depending on your preference you can work with your Fine Travel Consultant by phone, email, Zoom / Teams or if proximity allows, over coffee at a local cafe.
Booking Your Airfares
Booking air travel means different things to different travellers. Some prefer to outsource the entire process of researching and booking their airfares to a trusted travel agent (and being able to rely on their travel agent to assist with disruptions or changes). Others are happy book everything themselves.
If you're looking for personalised service, Fine Travel has access to the latest airfares and special offers to include in your itinerary. Through our Business Class Sales Alerts we keep our clients and subscribers up to date on the latest special offers and insights.
Cruise Holidays
Fine Travel is an authorised agent for all major cruise lines and we work directly with cruise lines and our strategic cruise wholesale partners to find the latest special offers. As a full-service travel agency there are also opportunities for us to package Personalised Business Class Wholesale airfares with cruise holidays to provide an even better overall price.
Fine Travel Consultants are passionate cruise travellers, often including cruises as part of their own holidays, or joining ship inspections when cruise ships are in New Zealand ports. This allows them to share first hand experiences with their clients.
Through our comprehensive cruise search engine you can explore the wide variety of Ocean, River and Expedition cruises available.
Bespoke Tours
A pre-organised group tour doesn't suit everyone's needs. If you're looking for a personalised itinerary that is focussed on your interests, preferences and style of travel we can work with our specialist wholesale partners to design a tailored itinerary for you.
This service spans all continents, so whether you're looking for an African safari, an extensive European holiday, an exploration or Asia or South America we can assist.
Small Group Tours
Tour companies, like Intrepid, have become renowned for the authentic experiences they have developed as part of their itineraries.
Although you may not immediately consider yourself to be an "Intrepid" traveller, their Premium itineraries are set at a comfortable 4 star level that appeals to many Fine Travel clients.
Smaller groups, likeminded travel companions and experienced guides all combine to make Intrepid one of our most popular small group tour partners.
Hotels and Resorts
Finding the right accommodation can be like being welcomed home and can make all the difference to a holiday or business trip. We work with all the well-known hotel chains (like Accor, IHG and Marriott) through to the truly luxurious like the Dorchester Group, and the small and boutique.
When we book hotels and resorts we can work with "travel agent only" wholesale partners, hotel aggregators (like Expedia) and directly with the hotel or resort. Whether it's a quick stopover, a resort for an island holiday or a comprehensive itinerary with multiple hotels we can assist.
Escorted Coach Tours
Joining an escorted tour with leading names like Insight Vacations, Trafalgar and Globus combines the enjoyment of travelling with a larger like-minded group and the authentic experiences these companies design.
Fine Travel works will all major group tour companies and can include their itineraries as part of a comprehensive overall package.
