Northland Bus Charters is a Whangārei-based charter and tour operator, owned and operated by Heather Jones and Arthur Mayall, who between them bring more than 50 years of professional driving experience. It is a small, owner-run business rather than a large network operator, and every job is quoted individually.
### Fleet
The vehicles listed on the company's website span a wide range of group sizes:
The coaches are air-conditioned and seatbelted, with TVs and DVD players. The company says it can handle groups from one person up to 200 by combining vehicles, with transport priced on total passenger numbers.
### Coverage
Based in Whangārei, Northland Bus Charters covers Auckland to Cape Reinga and east coast to west coast, and states it will travel further afield on request. Scheduled pickups and drop-offs are offered in Auckland, Whangārei and Kerikeri, with door-to-door service available.
### How event organisers use them
The company's stated services include corporate functions, team building and work functions, Christmas functions, conference-style field trips, airport pickups, cruise ship day tours, and concerts and festivals. For a business events organiser working in Northland, the practical fit is the Auckland–Whangārei leg — collecting delegates arriving into Auckland and running them north — followed by local shuttling and a day-tour programme once the group is in region.
For incentive and partner programmes, Northland Bus Charters offers wine tasting trails around Kerikeri and Matakana, scenic and tourist drives, and tailor-made touring packages. The owners note they will suggest itineraries for groups that know they want an outing but have not settled on a plan. Bookings are essential.
