The beauty of a self-drive campervan holiday means you can take your time and explore destinations without the restraints of a guided tour. But have you ever wished you could do a self-drive holiday, but still enjoy the advantages of having your own personal tour guide?

Tourism Radio offers a solution to your dilemma, and will make your driving holiday even more enjoyable and relaxing. When you pick up your motorhome hire from the below companies, ask for a Tourism Radio Guide to be installed in your vehicle to ensure you don't miss out on anything.

Tourism Radio's smart GPS technology reads your location as you are driving, with a tour guide commentator keeping you up to date with where you are and pointing out surrounding highlights. They will even suggest interesting places to visit nearby.

The radio itself is programmed with more than 2000 points of interest throughout New Zealand, ensuring every part of your driving adventure will be filled with interesting information. If you spot something enticing in the distance, instead of trawling through maps and tourism guides to find out what it is, your Tourism Radio will let you know as you approach it.

"Need to Know" information on 150 of them, including what to see and do, the history of the town, interesting facts and geographical points, are stored in these devices, ensuring you can make the most of your experience.
