Thanks for visiting the House of Travel Timaru page!

House of Travel has a long history in Timaru, the place where we opened our first New Zealand retail sales office in 1987, followed closely by Simon Hocking opening his Simon Hocking House of Travel office in the Northtown Mall.

The proud tradition established by these Timaru businesses continued when the two locations merged their interests in February 2014 and began operating out of the one location at 195 Stafford Street.

As previous owners Simon Hocking and Andrew Kemp agree "we had many, many years of friendly rivalry in Timaru and now is the right time for the offices to come together in order to provide Timaru at one central location, with the outstanding customer service we always aimed for individually”.

The business is now led by Owner Operator Darryl Sandri and along with the new team, he looks forward to maintaining the standards of customer service that both offices have offered to their Timaru customers for nearly 3 decades.

“We work to make sure our customers make the very best of every single day of their travel time, that what they do is safe, and that they get absolute value for their money” says Owner Operator Darryl Sandri “if you want to make your next overseas holiday just the best that it can possibly be we invite you to contact us to discuss what you have in mind”
