backpack by van to New Zealand

Start: 5 Juni 2013, 13.20

Dear Friends,
Lagi cari temen, maksudnya biar rame aja . kita sudah ber7. Sewa campervan keliling NZ dari South Island dulu baru di North Island. Itinerary ada dibawah, budget per orang dengan kondisi 1 Van isi 4 orang (hitungan berlebihan, alias mudah”an bisa kurang), syarat visanya juga ada. Silahkan disimak.
Untuk SIM, karena perjalanan nggk sampai sebulan juga jadi nggk perlu SIM International. Cukup ada Surat penerjemah SIM kita aja. Buat yang nggk bisa nyetir. Gpp kok. kebagian tugas masakin yang nyetirin yang enak” ajahehehe. Harga Van sudah termasuk GPS dan kita pergi pas winter. Actually bingung juga bisa dibilang backpack atau nggk, secara ini explore Negara nggk pake Public Transportation.
