Frequently asked questions

How much does a Waikato holiday package cost?
Discover the best of Waikato from as little as AU$815. We offer a great selection of hotels, flights and rental cars to suit every budget and style. You can pick up even more discounts when you add some tours or activities to your holiday package.
How do I get a cheap travel package to Waikato?
One of the easiest ways to save dollars (and time) is to combine your bookings with Expedia. Hotels, flights, rental cars and activities — we’ve got them all. Pick and choose the combination that suits you and watch your savings pile up. Of course, a package deal is never a one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer more than 550 partner airlines and 1 000 000 hotels worldwide, which lets you customize your Waikato holiday.
What are the top hotels in Waikato?
Check out Chateau Tongariro Hotel and Novotel Tainui Hamilton. They’re top picks for many travellers headed to Taupo. If Whitianga features in your travel itinerary, Peninsula Motel and Rolleston Motel Thames – Wenzel Motels are a couple of cosy options.
How far in advance should I book my Waikato holiday?
While not all air carriers advertise tickets early, it’s usually possible to compare international fares on Expedia up to a year in advance. This is the time when you can nab some incredible deals. If you’ve left everything to the last minute, you might get lucky. Low prices sometimes appear only weeks before departure.
What does an Expedia Waikato travel package include?
From airfares and hotels to car rentals, Expedia can help you shape a Waikato package that’s ideal for you. Heading away for a week or two? Give some thought to a rental car, hotel and flight bundle. If you’re taking a short break, a hotel and flight deal may be more your style. Activities can also be added once you’ve made your booking. Our travel packages make it a breeze to plan and save.
What should I know before booking a Waikato travel package?
A travel package can be easier on the hip pocket than individually booking all you need for your escape. For example, bundle your hotels, flights and rental cars and save big. Whatever type of holiday you have in mind, you’ll find a package that fits your budget.
Can I choose my airline with a Waikato Expedia holiday package?
Yes, you’re in charge. Expedia has access to more than 550 airlines across the globe, so you can design your Waikato adventure according to your budget and needs.
If I'm not able to travel, can I cancel my Waikato holiday package?
Don’t worry if you’re rethinking your Waikato holiday package — it’s possible to change or amend your booking. And if you’ve booked it within the last 24 hours, you may be able to do it for free. However, bookings made more than 24 hours ago may incur a fee from your hotel, airline or car rental company. We totally understand your circumstances can change suddenly, so head to our Customer Service Portal if that happens. When you’re ready to make changes, we’re here to help.
