Frequently asked questions

How much does a Rakaia holiday package cost?
You'll find cheap prices from AU$851 on Expedia for your Rakaia escape. However, factors like the season, length of stay and your choice of hotel will influence how much your holiday to Rakaia costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Rakaia?
May, June and July are great times to look for cheap Rakaia holiday packages. Travelling in less busy months means you can generally find lower prices on hotels and flights.
How many days is enough for Rakaia?
With a well-organised travel plan, you can easily tick off the top Rakaia sights in a few days. But if you prefer to discover hidden gems or go on day trips, think about booking your Rakaia holiday for longer.
How to find the best Rakaia package deals?
Finding a cheap Rakaia package deal is a breeze with Expedia. Once you've entered your destination and travel dates under our "Packages" tab, set your budget range, apply some filters and browse what's available.

Want a simple trick to score the biggest savings? Be flexible with your departure dates and consider going away on a weekday, when prices are typically lower.
Is it cheaper to book a Rakaia holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to give you more bang for your buck. Bundle your hotel, car rental and flight into one great-value price and you could save hundreds of dollars.
