Dunedin - Christchurch Express Service

16 June 2009

For all of you who have finished your end of semester exams - Congratulations! Give yourself a pat on the back to say “well done”.

We have great news for you as well. Nakedbus.com is running an additional service from Dunedin to Christchurch on Friday 19th June at 8:30 in the morning. This is an express service so the bus will only pick up at Dunedin Railway station and our new Dunedin University stop (Otago University Science Library; 730 Cumberland street). The bus will then head straight to Christchurch with a break in Temuka for lunch.

With the winter specials still on what more can you ask for?

What a way to go!

What a way to go! Being a pensioner it is just so wonderful to make this trip possible for me!

Pleasant experience

A very pleasant experience. It was very easy to deposit money and then book the ticket.
-Nick Conolly

Keeping travel expenses amazingly low!

Want to say thanks for the great service. We like to keep our carbon emissions as low as possible, so we avoid making individual car trips whenever we can. The fares we get on nakedbus make it possible for us to travel as often as we need to for business, while limiting our individual driving and keeping travel expenses amazingly low!
