14th April 2011

Media Release
 

Real Journeys has raised over forty thousand dollars for the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal and the last opportunity to help add to that total is on Sunday (April 17).  Plenty of tickets are still available for all Real Journeys’ fundraising Milford Sound Cruises and the Te Anau Glowworm Caves excursion.  Locals from Central Otago, Otago, Southland and ‘Crusader territories' can travel on a Real Journeys Day Cruise on Milford Sound for less than a third of the normal price.  These are the last excursions available at these special local prices with 100% of the money received donated to the New Zealand Red Cross for those directly affected by the earthquake.

Real Journeys has been running a range of excursions to raise money for the Appeal including to Doubtful Sound and Dusky Sound, Stewart Island Lodge and the Milford Track.   

The fundraising TSS Earnslaw cruises were popular with locals last weekend, almost five hundred travelled on the iconic steamship. 

Tickets for all the Milford Sound Cruises are just $20 and for the Te Anau Glowworms are $30; Children are $10.  All other excursions are booked out.  Christchurch Earthquake Appeal to be mentioned and proof of address required at check-in.
