House of Travel Hobsonville wins 2019 Top Travel Agency Award
Although 2020 hasn’t been the year we’d all hoped it would be (massive understatement) HOT Hobsonville have just been awarded Top Shop based on our 2019 sales and customer service. This is a huge achievement for us and I wanted to share this awesome news with you. We love being part of the community and are committed long term to staying where we are; local and open to serve your travel needs whether they be domestic or (fingers-crossed) international once it is safe to do so.
Even for short domestic travel holidays we are constantly being told by new clients “we wouldn’t normally book with a travel agent but we are glad that we did”.
A very special thanks to all the people who have supported us over the last few years and continue to do so. We’d also like to extend a welcome those we haven’t met yet. Please give us a chance and know you’re booking with one of the best agencies in New Zealand.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
