Intercity Bus

Intercity Bus runs between Christchurch Airport - Christchurch City, Dunedin and Queenstown. Check the timetable carefully. Because of COVID, they do not come to Tekapo everyday. If your cycle tour ends in Oamaru, we can arrange transport back to Timaru Airport. The Intercity Bus travels from Oamaru to Christchurch and Dunedin. Your own bikes must be disassembled and boxed. If the bus is fully booked, the number of bikes to be transported may be limited so please check their information carefully.


Atomic Shuttle

Atomic Shuttle runs between Christchurch and Dunedin stopping in Timaru and Oamaru en-route. Please check if they are running as COVID has impacted significantly on shuttle services.
