Location, Location, Location From Just One Dollar

Media release 30th July 2007

Location, Location, Location From Just One Dollar With Nakedbus.Com!

Say goodbye to money woes and hello to visiting some of New Zealand’s most spectacular tourist spots, with super low-cost bus service provider nakedbus.com!

Famous for its $1 fares, innovative bus company nakedbus.com has announced the provision of two brand new routes due to popular demand – tourist favourite Milford Sound in the South Island and the stunning surf landscape of Gisborne and the East Coast in the North Island.

With fares from just $1, getting to Milford Sound has never been easier – or cheaper. For a fraction of the price of other tourist providers, travellers can get onboard nakedbus.com and see the beautiful lands of the south.

Day-trip sightseeing on a coach from Queenstown to Milford will run daily, with inclusive prices starting at just $1! This extremely competitive price also includes a boat cruise on Milford Sound, offering unbeatable value.

The benefits for Kiwis continue, with a new daily service provision from nakedbus.com to the North Island’s idyllic East Coast. As the company’s most requested destination to be served, Gisborne has now been put on the nakedbus.com map – with fares from just $1 to take Kiwis from Gisborne, Whakatane and Opotiki to Rotorua, Hamilton and Auckland return.

nakedbus.com Managing Director, Hamish Nuttall, says the provision of the new routes allows travellers to see the country’s top tourist spots without breaking the bank.

“The exciting new routes offered by nakedbus.com reflect our aim to make travel accessible to all Kiwis,” he says.

As a responsible eco-tourism provider, Mr Nuttall says nakedbus.com is focused on encouraging New Zealanders to reduce their carbon footprint through their choice of travel.

Research recently undertaken by nakedbus.com found that on its Hastings/Napier to Auckland service, the estimated annual reduction in CO2 emissions from passengers using the bus instead of the car was 177 tonnes of CO2 per year. Further research has shown that 32% of nakedbus.com users had previously driven cars.

“If we want to preserve New Zealand’s clean green image we need to act now,” says Nuttall.

“Making an active decision to switch from car to bus and using a low cost service provider such as nakedbus.com is a significant step Kiwis can take to reduce their carbon footprint,” he says.
