Plan Your Trip: Book Flights & Rental Cars
We've partnered with trusted global providers to make planning your journey to the beautiful Far North as simple and seamless as possible. Below, you'll find easy-to-use tools to search for the best deals on flights to New Zealand and to book your rental car for pickup at our local Kerikeri (KKE) Airport.
Step 1:
Book Your Flights
Our international guests typically fly into Auckland (AKL), New Zealand's main travel hub. From there, it's a short and incredibly scenic 45-minute flight to our local airport, Kerikeri, Bay of Islands (KKE). We recommend flying with Air New Zealand for a seamless end-to-end journey. For the best availability and prices, we suggest booking your flights well in advance, especially for our peak summer season (December - March). Use the tool to find the best options for your travel dates.
Step 2:
Arrange Your Rental Car
A rental car is essential for making the most of your Far North adventure, giving you the freedom to explore at your own pace. The most convenient option is to pick up your vehicle directly from Kerikeri (KKE) Airport upon your arrival. Major providers like Hertz and Avis are located right in the terminal. The scenic drive to Casa Playa de los osos takes just 30-40 minutes, and from there, you'll be ready to discover all the stunning beaches and charming villages our region has to offer.
Step 3: Don't Forget Your Travel Insurance
Once your flights and car are sorted, the final step is to ensure your trip is protected. We highly recommend travel insurance for all international visitors. For our guests from the USA, we've partnered with Ektatraveling.com to provide an easy way to get a quote for comprehensive coverage.
