Car Relocation

CAR RELOCATION – THE FLEXIBLE, CONVENIENT TRACK TRANSPORT

Independence offers so much convenience. Your time is valuable and the best way to make the most of it when you’re on holiday is to travel at your own pace and on your own schedule. Our car relocation is a simple and efficient way for you to do just that.

Choosing car relocation means you can take your time on the track, there’s no meeting time or backtracking required. It’s safe, secure and we take care of the insurance arrangements with your rental car company. For groups, it’s also more cost-effective and efficient than the bus, plus you get the added bonus of a fresh pair of clothes (and snacks) waiting for you at the end of your walk!

For a detailed step-by-step breakdown of how our car relocation works, see our 5 Step Process.

What are people saying?

Easy hike was a fantastic service from the beginning to the end. We were a family of 5, on the last day out of the hike absolutely thrilled to have our car waiting for us. We were hot and exhausted and very happy not to have to rush or wait for a shuttle. Lock box system very simple to use. Wonderful hand written note with a lovely postcard waiting for us in our car, nice touch. Email communication fantastic. Brilliant company. Thanks

Cannot recommend Easyhike enough! They relocated our car for us while we did the Routeburn Track in February. The process and details they provide make for an efficient and easy experience and by checking in/confirming details several times prior to the hike, we were confident in our booking. The Easyhike staff in Te Anau were also super friendly and able to recommend some places to stay overnight before the hike. Anyone hiking the Routeburn, Kepler or Milford tracks should definitely consider using this service provided by a great local company.

It was reassuring knowing that the gear I took with me was exactly what I needed. It also meant it meant that I didn't have to purchase my own gear. … More Your gear was top quality which helped ensure that I really enjoyed the hike.
You were fantastic to deal with! Nothing was a problem. I really appreciated your flexibility. Thank you so much. I will certainly recommend you to other people!

We had the most wonderful time hiking the Kepler, thanks to Easyhike. They made the entire thing so effortless. Not having to worry about what to pack … More and whether I'd packed enough was an absolute treat, as was seeing my car waiting for me in the Rainbow Reach carpark at the end of the hike. The gear was top quality and dealing with the team a breeze. I cannot recommend them enough.

Friendly, efficient service, who got us to the start of the Milford Track ahead of schedule(good for getting the best bunks😃), and they we’re waiting … More for us early at the end of the track when it was chucking down rain. Definitely happy to recommend. The track is also a must do for those that are wondering what should go onto your bucket lists!
