Question

Crossing the Cook Strait .New Zealand,

Answer 1

Hi

The email address is:

[e-mail]

However, you can book directly on their website and get instant confirmation of your booking. Their website is:

http://www.bluebridge.co.nz/

You dont say where you are from but presumably, if you are looking to contact them by email, then you are overseas. Are you aware that there are two ferry companies that can take you across the Cook Strait. This is the website for the other one (interisland ferries):

http://www.interislander.co.nz/

I mention them for a number of reasons. One, they have more sailings than Bluebridge; two the journey is shorter; three - Bluebridge have a 'one price' policy which in normal circumstances is as good as or better than InterIslander, but, depending on when you want to go and how many of you there are and (if) when you are coming back to the South Island, the Interislander may well be doing a special deal that is better than Bluebridges; and finally, Bluebridge is essentially a freighter that carries passengers. The facilities on board are not as comprehensive as on the Interislander and you will often find that the freight on the Bluebridge includes sheep or cattle - you may not be the type who enjoys a three hour plus journey across the strait with the delicate smell of animals and their byproducts wafting through the air while you consume your turkey sandwich :-) On the plus side for Bluebridge, (and this may only be my perception) their ferries seem to handle a rough crossing better than those of Interislander.

Just some things for you to consider if you haven't been this way before.

Answer 2

Hopefully you find what you need at one of these sites.
