HOT P​apamoa highlights

HOT Cruise Club

Register to join our Exclusive Cruise Club where you will not only will be the first to hear about the latest cruise offers but also be privy to exclusive invites on-board some of the many ships that enter our local port & be the first to know when we are holding our cruise nights where we will offer on the night only offers available to those attending the shows.


Cruise Holidays

Big Ship, little Ship we know the best ones to pick.
We love to cruise and think it’s the most amazing way to see the world. Some of the world’s best cities are built right on the Ocean, so what better way to see them than from a floating hotel… Takes all the stress out of travel, plus someone else takes care of all the cooking, cleaning and planning the entertainments for you… We love holidays on water and have experienced first-hand some of the world’s best cruise ships, river boats, Feluccas down the Nile & canal boats in the France and UK.


Touring UK & Europe

Our team have travelled all over the UK & Europe where we have taken coach tours, cruises, trains, buses, self-drived and of course biked!  No matter what your UK/Europe budget is, from backpacking to a more luxurious break, whether you are traveling for the first time or returning to discover new areas let us match you with the best consultant to assist you in planning your next adventure.


African Safaris & Overland Adventures

When it comes to a continent like Africa, where do you start to plan… Our advice is come in and have a chat with Christine who has roamed all over the vast continent and knows it like her own backyard. So if you are wanting a Gorilla Trek, a wildlife Safari, Luxury lodges or an overland truck adventure this is the best place to start. South America is a destination for Wendy that is one of her favourites, especially Peru where both herself and Hayley have experienced the wonders of the Incas. 

Weddings & Honeymoons

We know the ins and outs of some of the best places to go to get married in the islands and what to consider when planning your wedding.  Honeymoons are also important for that relaxation after the busy lead up to your big event.  Contact the team on how you can also set up a ‘wedding register’ where guests can contribute also to your honeymoon making it a special gift you will always remember.


The Big OE

We love helping you plan the BIG OE.  If you are thinking of heading off and you are not sure where to start then come and have a chat to some of our team.  We hold our ‘Big O.E’ evenings at least twice a year where we offer on the night exclusive discounts.  Don’t miss out.  Find out the best way to save money on your flights & tours.  If you are going to head to stay in the UK we can give you assistance on how to get your visa, set up a UK bank account and all the details you need to know before your big move!


Family Holidays

We know that all families are different and all have different needs, including different budgets so we don’t believe in trying to squeeze you all in to the same Family holiday package. Let us stretch your minds with amazing family holidays, to new destinations or holiday options, you may not have even thought of. We also have great family packages to the traditional favourites of Disneyland, Phuket, & the islands including Fiji & Rarotonga to the ever popular Australian Gold Coast.

Groups & Team Travel

Travelling with a Group can be so much fun, team sporting events, family reunions, special anniversary events, sporting events and musical concerts. Through our sister company Golden Tickets we can access tickets to a lot of Global events you thought were sold out. We can also advise you on how to get Free Places for your group, fund raising ideas and yes we even have great group deals on Cruise Lines. Talk to our team of experts today!


Hospice NZ 

We are proud to support Hospice New Zealand and together with our House of Travel stores will look to ways to raise money for our local Hospice.
