Poll: Kiwi's Exploring
When thinking about your domestic travel, where do you start?
Reply, with where you book?
Now is the opportunity for us to support locals in whatever way we can. Whether it’s a coffee here or there, or a good word in for a local business every bit counts. As a travel agency we aim to take the hassle out of creating your holiday, with our expertise, knowledge and resources. We are at your service, a local. Currently we are unraveling travel with the best interests of our clients at heart and in all honesty it has been a slow process, so thank you for your patience.
I saw that the Stuff Travel Reporter @LornaThornber asked you how post COVID domestic travel has/hasn't been for you. Out of curiosity I read a few comments and the general feel, is that it's not affordable to travel in New Zealand, preventing many from venturing off. Us Kiwi’s love travelling abroad, but depending on where and when you go and the experience you want the cost varies, which is no different when it comes to domestic travel. Not going to deny that New Zealand on whole is an expensive country but by taking advantage of the special offers as they become available can get you on that much needed or wanted holiday. Think about your locally owned and operated travel agency – helloworld Travel Whangarei! We can help you get moving in our own backyard.

Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday May 9th
Good People
Please note: There are NO screenings by WFS at Forum North on Thursday 2nd May due to the venue being unavailable.
But on Thursday, 9th May at 6pm, WFS will be screening a behind-the-scenes doco on the greatest racing driver of his time, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Our 8pm screening will be the film version of the best-selling book, Are you there God? It's me, Margaret.
JACKIE STEWART
UK, 2023, Documentary, 95 mins
This documentary shines a light on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Using previously unseen footage, Sir Jackie’s life is detailed from his early years in Scotland, to the rush of his first F1 World Championship title in 1969.
Stewart's fame and success was followed by tumultuous times when, despite opposition from those who wanted F1 to be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety for drivers and pit crews.
"Whether you're a new fan or a lifelong F1 fanatic, this stunning documentary is worth your time." - Race Fans Magazine
