How Explera supports the New Zealand trade.
Agencies in New Zealand sell Korea as a quick getaway: short, repeat breaks of four to seven nights, usually booked inside a short window around school holidays, Lunar New Year and regional long-weekend clusters. Net rates stay confidential to the trade and the mark-up is yours to set.
Quoting for New Zealand is built for your margins: clear per-person grids, child and extra-bed policies up front, and pricing in your working currency. Confidential net rates protect your margin, and we never market to your end client.
Pacing in Korea is tuned to short itineraries for New Zealand: early starts to beat the heat, free afternoons, and inspected dinner reservations. Drivers run our own insured, GPS-tracked fleet, and the 24/7 duty desk covers every ground hour of the trip.

Do you provide language support for New Zealand?
English-language account management is standard, and Mandarin, Japanese and Korean guides are assigned to match your clients.
Which parts of Korea do New Zealander clients book most?

Is Explera a licensed, accredited operator?
