  Because of the length of the NZ tours, I’d say you’d pay them all at once, the TM will tell you when. Possibly it might get split in two (like one payment for the south island optionals and one for the north if you’re going to both) but I reckon it’d be more likely to pay them all at once. When I did NZ contiki it was on about the 4th or 5th day

  i did the grand explorer in may.. and our payments were split between the north and the south.
  if you’re doing the same tour i did, you’ll notice that there’s different people getting picked up and dropped off throughout the trip because NZ dont get the numbers like europe etc, and they combine them all together.
  we didnt pay for the north island activities until about day 3, as our tour manager had to link up the eftpos machine, and also, it was the same day we had new people join, so i guess it was easier for him to do it all at once. and the north island was pretty much the same.

  you pay your north in the north island and the south somewhere.I have done Insight in the UK the year before Contiki NZ and from memory the payments for that were done in either Scotland or Wales BUT I guess the concept would be rather similar.
