Budget For New Zealand

Trip to NZ is just around the corner. We finally finalized all powered campsites. Sleeping bags, batteries, memory cards, and other gadgets, are all checked in. Just pending for few things here and there, which can be "kowtim" before we fly off.

You guys might be wondering why I always say, I travel cheap. Even on my blog header, on my profile detail, I keep on stressing that word.

Yup, till date, I never see any travel bugs who travel CHEAPEr than us. We will "die die" try to cut cost, as low as we can, as long as we can travel out from the country. Regardless where the destination is! You think I'm a cheapskate? Meet my hubby. If I bring RM500 cash, my hubby will bring half than that. Trust me, he bought RM100 to Makassar, and he still have extra +-RM50 at the airport. Hahaha!

So, I reveal...our not-so-super-low budget to South Island, New Zealand.

Two pax, 7 full days, ALL IN :
Flight + Powered Campsite + Car + Fuel + Meal + Entrance Fee
= NZD1681
= RM4286 (2.55 exchange rate)
= RM2143 Per Pax (excluded shopping)
*If we bring "serunding" and opted for normal campsite, it would be much more cheaper...but where to charge the batteries la? Hahaha!

South Island explorace in 7 days for RM2.1k each...anyone have gone lower than this? Drop me your 2 cents :D

(Don't la tell me you all jalan kaki, naik bas lompat, puasa seminggu...I mean, with the same deal, if you can go lower than this, share laaaaaaaaaaaa :D)

P/S : Let see how low we can go for Japan trip next year!

  3. which company yg uols guna utk campervan ni?

    klu u rajin tgk promo u might get better prices...i rasa sewa keta/campervan bleh dikurangkan.

    fuel uols dah masukkan? bagi standard rate NZD2 per liter. some place might be lower than that, depends on where u fuel up sbb dlm town murah, outskit mahal...but queenstown mmg 24/7 mahal

    btw u buat bungy tak?

    if u nak lagi murah, grab deal utk pakej2 mcm milford sound, jet boating whatsoever..tgk dlm bookme.co.nz (sini mmg specialize utk activities aje), oso grabone.co.nz

    bila u berangkat?

  4. oh by the way yg Nakedbus $1 tu, bkn sume route ada ye...certain route sahaja...dan utk setiap trip hanya ada 1 seat saja. so tak sume org bleh dpt...

    fuel dah termasuk. kitorang tak amik campervan sbb tak cukup hari. so amik mini mpv, tido dlm keta.

  9. Kuntum: Insya Allah boleh, kitorg kalau tak leh dpt murah lagi, tp since tarikh kitorg pegi tu, time world cup rugby, so harge campsite powered/non powered, backpackers hostel, semua naik. Kalau tarikh biasa2 tanpa apa2 event, memang murah.
    Satu lagi kitorg dpt murah, sebab tiket flight kitorg memang rembat time murah2. Dlm RM500+ cam tu return ticket yg kitorg beli hari tu.

  10. haah, ni pun dah kira abis mahal dah ni...kalo tak, mau lagi murah nih!

  12. biqque,
    since u wnt to opt for mpv, aku suggest ko amik jela campervan jucy tu..ada small kitchen, dgn tmpt tido...it's way cheaper dr mpv sbb ada equipment masa sekali. just to inform ko mesti park kat holiday/caravan park sbb parking overnite at roadside akan invite polis utk ketuk cermin keta ko & saman. sini lain skit beb.




    blueEwoke,
    aah..itupun ko kena book ahead like 4-5mnths before travel...so klu dpt mmg gila lucky la.

    aku dpt 2 tiket! kihkihkih :P



    kuntum,
    more than enuf..klu u bwk 2k pun dah cukup. i mean, if u travel with group of ppl
