2011 New Zealand Rugby World Cup & Golf Tour
Join us for a New Zealand golf and Canadian rugby experience you’ll never forget!
From kick-off at the first pool match on 09 September to the Final on 23 October 2011, New Zealand will be hosting a six-week festival of Rugby. The Tournament’s 48 matches will be played in 13 venues spread throughout the North and South Island of New Zealand, showing off the country to the full and encouraging visitors to sample the many delights of this beautiful and diverse holiday destination.
We have assembled a two week itinerary with enough variations to suit almost any budget. Our featured itinerary includes two Canada matches, one against Japan, and the highlight, Canada against New Zealand. We also have two other matches, with South Africa playing Samoa, and England versus Scotland – which should be a real tilt.
Self Drive itinerary will be $5850 per person based on four sharing, and includes one internal flight but not the international flights from Canada.
If you prefer to join a Rugby & Golf tour, the cost will be approximately $5250 and all coach transfers will be provided.
