A Weeks Holiday on the West Coast Booked for Us Staff at Greymouth I Site booked our week-long trip down the West Coast to Queenstown for us. We were provided with comfortable well-equipped places to stay and an amazing tour in Okarito wetlands. Staff went out of their way to make sure bookings met our needs. Including when we added another person midway through the booking! Very impressed and would do this again instead of trying to do it all ourselves. The added advantage was that everything was paid for ahead of time so we did not have to worry about payment along the way.

Great Tour We spent a wonderful day with Bob who showed us some great spots on the west coast, including the Tree Top walk, Hokitika Gorge, Punakaiki rocks, Truman Track and beach. He kept us informed and entertained with a commentary based on his life time on the coast. Thanks for a great day Bob.

Great working with I-site! Kelly is wonderful! After purchasing a Grab One deal I worked with Kelly to.book our trip to Lake Brunner . All was well until the train got cancelled due to Covid and the fun began! Kelly was very accommodating and ensured that we had shuttles to get us to and from the lake, along with sorting out the tours for us, one of which we had to cancel due to returning earlier that expected. She arranged a credit at the hotel for us to spend on dinner which was great. We can't thank you enough for making our 37th wedding anniversary special.

Viele Tipps Greymouth i-Site zeichnet sich durch hohe Kompetenz, absolute Freundlichkeit und Gelassenheit und die nötige Prise Humor aus. Wir buchten unseren Trip zum Doubtful Sound, es wurde persönlich angerufen und nachgeforscht, ob die 2 letzten Plätze auch tatsächlich noch verfügbar waren. Zusätzlich gab es viele Infos für gute Campsites, Wanderungen und weitere Sehenswürdigkeiten. Einfach wunderbar.

My husband & I were abandoned by our camper car hire company (Jucy) in Greymouth, when our car broke down while passing through the town, and the wonderful lady at your information centre helped us book a bus to Christchurch. She was extremely professional, helpful and pleasant and we would like to say a BIG ‘Thank you’ to her (I’m sorry, but because of our confusion at the time we cannot remember her name). We will never forget your kindness in our time of need.

Immediately after getting off the Tranz Alpine train, Kelly at the i-Site visitor desk helped us book a full day tour with Explore West Coast for the next day. We didn’t have cellular service so she called and confirmed availability and sent emails to us confirming the details. When we were checking in for the train ride back Kelly even remembered our name from several days earlier. This was a great help and highly recommend stopping in to have a chat at the desk. Friendly, helpful and welcoming people

Very busy between 10am-2pm to manage check-in for 2:05 TranzAlpine train to Christchurch and the arrival and baggage collection of the TranzAlpine from Christchurch at 1:05pm. Check-in was simply and baggage can be checked in from 10am. A well stocked and extensive range of NZ and West Coast souvenirs at reasonable prices; eg: 2 original brand tshirts for $20 is very good value. Conveniently, the car rental companies operate out of this location. The staff were very helpful and efficient during this busy time.
