WERK & WOON NEW ZEALAND

Wil jy eers die kat uit die boom kom kyk voordat jy die groot sprong van immigrasie vat of wil jy maar net kom kyk hoe New Zealand lyk en waaroor almal so gaande raak?

Weet jy nie hoe om te werk te gaan om alles te sien en alles te wete te kom as jy eers hier is nie?

Sien nie kans vir die moeite om verblyf, vervoer en toere te rëel nie?

Ons sal al die sorge uit jou hande neem met ons LSD-toere (LSD = Look, See & Decide) deur na jou om te sien van die oomblik dat jy by Auckland-lughawe afklim tot jy weer op die vliegtuig klim.

Ons bied jou 'n geleentheid om in 5 dae en 6 nagte soveel van New Zealand te sien en te ervaar as wat menslik moontlik is om jou te help om 'n goed ingeligte besluit te neem aangaande werk in of immigrasie na New Zealand.

Ons "Kom Kyk toere" is pasmaak-toere wat rondom ons kliënte, hulle behoeftes en tye gebou word. Ons gaan uit ons pad om dit vir ons gaste so maklik, gemaklik en ontspanne as moontlik te maak. Die gaste bepaal die tempo en die toere kan aangepas word om by die gaste se behoeftes te pas. Ons het nie 'n vasgestelde toerskedule nie en toere word gereël op bespreking en rondom die gaste se vlugtye.

Die toerpakket sluit die volgende in:

• Vervoer vanaf Auckland Lughawe tot in Cambridge by die gastehuis en terug na Auckland*. Ons wag vir jou in die aankomslokaal op die lughawe en lewer jou weer by jou vertrekhek af.

• 6 Nagte akkommodasie in:

1. 'n Splinternuwe, luukse gastehuis met privaat sitkamer en ensuite badkamer in elke slaapkamer. 'n Waskamer ("laundry"), braaigeriewe, satteliet-TV is tot die gaste se beskikking. Die privaat sitkamer het ook geriewe ("kitchenette") om koffie/tee en ligte etes te maak.

of

2. 'n Selfonderhoudende snoesige kothuis in 'n tuin atmosfeer met 'n fantastiese uitsig oor die Waikatorivier en perdeplase. Twee gemaklike kamers - een met 'n Koningin= grootte bed en die ander met twee enkelbeddens. Oop plan kombuis/sitkamer met TV, CD/Radio, mikrogolf, yskas en stoof. Groot badkamer.

(Tipe akkommodasie sal afhang van die beskikbaarheid by tye van die bespreking).

• Ontbyt is ingesluit by die gastehuis. By die kothuis voorsien ons alles wat nodig is vir jou om self ontbyt voor te berei. KLIEK HIER om die ontbyt-menu by die gastehuis te sien.

• 5 x Dagtoere** na die volgende plekke - Tauranga, Rotorua, Auckland, Hamilton en Taupo.

• Middagete ingesluit.

• 'n Kort staptoer van 45 minute deur die "Karangahape gorge" maak ook deel uit van die dagtoer na Tauranga. Die roete is maklik en enige persoon kan dit gemaklik voltooi.

• 'n Lekker braai saam met ander SAners ,wie reeds hier gevestig is en bereid is om al jou vrae te beantwoord sal jou toer lekker afsluit op die laaste aand.

• Gereelde kontak met ander SAners wie reeds hier gevestig is en jou van raad kan voorsien.

• Vars strandhanddoeke (indien en wanneer benodig) & gebottelde water elke oggend met aanvang van die dag se toer. Jy hoef nie jou eie strandhanddoeke te bring om te swem of op die strand te lê nie. Ons sal jou skoon strandhanddoeke voorsien wanneer jy dit benodig. Strandhanddoeke vat ongelooflik baie plek in jou bagasie en jy kan daardie plek veel beter gebruik vir geskenke vir die familie in SA! Bring net 'n klein gesighandoekie saam, want die gastehuis voorsien ook handdoeke.

• 'n Bundel met "flyers" oor huidige pryslyste van kruideniersware, motors, huise, meubels en nog meer.

• 'n Selfoon wat jy by jou hou vir die duur van die toer en waar jy te alle tye gekontak kan word.

• Wyeband Internet en SKYPE-telefoon is ook gratis beskikbaar.

• Ons brand jou digitale foto's (NIE video nie) gratis op 'n DVD.

Sou u tussen etes 'n bietjie honger voel het ons 'n mandjie met versnapperinge (grondboontjies, vrugtesap, soutbeskuitjies, koekies en "snack bars") in die bussie waarvan u gratis kan geniet om die honger te stil of u energie aan te vul.

Gevestigde immigrante gaan hulle inligting en ervarings met jou deel oor alles wat jy graag wil weet van immigrasie tot alledaagse lewe in NZ.

Van skole en kinders tot mediese dienste en kraamverlof en van PR-aansoeke tot hoe om 'n huis te huur of te koop sal ons jou vertel.

Ons deel ons plaaslike kennis met jou en bring jou in kontak met mense wat jou aanpassing makliker kan maak en al jou vrae kan beantwoord. Ons gaan jou wys hoe lyk die skole, hospitale, winkelsentrums, parke en universiteite en enige ander plekke wat jy graag wil sien.

Jy sal alles weet oor pensioen en burgerskap en waar om ondersteuning te kry as jy vasdraai.

Jy sal geen vrae meer hê na hierdie toer nie!!

Maak solank jou lysie!

Toere word slegs per bespreking gedoen. Pryse is per persoon wie 'n kamer deel. Ons kan ongelukkig nie enkelbesprekings doen nie en alle besprekings moet vir 2 persone wees wat 'n kamer deel.

KINDERS OP TOER: Die toere is slegs vir Volwassenes en kinders ouer as 10 jaar. Dit is ons ervaring dat die vinnige pas van die toere te veel is vir kinders onder 10 en dat hulle dit geweldig uitputtend vind en nie kan bybly nie.

GROEP AFSLAG: 'n Groep afslag van 15% is van toepassing op besprekings van groepe van 4 persone.

Indien u na die toer nog 'n dag of twee langer in die gastehuis wil aanbly sal ons met graagte vir u 'n gratis kwotasie daarvoor gee.

By ontvangs van jou bespreking verwag ons 'n deposito van 25% van die toerfooie en die res nie later as 30 dae voor jou vertrek na NZ nie.
