CURRENCY:
The current exchange rate is roughly $1.11 NZD = $1 AUD. Most Australian bank/credit cards are acceptable in the ATM machines. If we are leaving for golf prior to 11am, it is advisable to exchange or withdraw money the night before to ensure you have enough to cover food, drinks and tips the following day.
MEDICAL & INSURANCE:
We strongly urge you to take out a comprehensive travel insurance policy for your time in New Zealand. If you don’t yet have travel insurance, please arrange it prior to departure to avoid any unforeseen expenses while in NZ.
Take with you any medications that you require and keep them in a separate container. Prescription medications should be in the original box/bottle with your name on it (if possible). There are chemists readily available, and all known brands of medications, pills, cures and preventatives are available and prescription medications can be prepared. The availability of your particular medication is not guaranteed. If you have any conditions that may cause you to become ill on the course or during the trip, let someone who you are playing with know about it, in the event that assistance may be readily available.
WEATHER:
November is generally chilly. Please bring any colder/wet weather gear accordingly.
FREE TIME
Free days are yours to take tours around the local area or just relax.
