Frequently asked questions

How much does a Nelson holiday package cost?
Offering excellent value package deals on Expedia, you'll be surprised at how little a holiday to Nelson costs! Our packages mean less travel planning for you and greater savings.
What are the cheapest months to go to Nelson?
July, August and September are great times to search for cheap Nelson holiday packages. Travelling in less busy periods means you can typically find lower prices on accommodation and flights.
How many days is enough for Nelson?
Nelson holidays come in many shapes and sizes, but to get a true feel for this place, we'd suggest 2 days is about right. In this timeframe, you can fit in headline attractions like Nelson Provincial Museum and Founders Park and seek out some lesser-known gems. Don't miss out on neighbourhoods such as The Wood and Nelson City Centre either. If you're clever with your time, you can even schedule a day trip from Nelson too.
Is it worth booking a holiday package to Nelson?
Nelson has all the ingredients you need for a memorable getaway --- coastal beaches, walking trails and distilleries and craft breweries are just the start. Whether you'd like to check out attractions such as Christ Church Cathedral and Natureland Zoo, or take the path less traveled, you'll find plenty to see and do on your Nelson holiday.

Bagging a cheap Nelson package deal is a breeze with Expedia. After you've entered your destination and travel dates under our "Packages" tab, set your budget, add some filters and see what's available.
