KANES have various styles of meals.  Mixing meal styles makes for even more variety and cultural appreciation enhancing the whole touring experience. Discuss your meal preferences when planning your tour.

Low budget "Safari Meals"  - Self Catering
Well organised safari meals will add to the adventure save time and help develop life skills and food technology. All the food and facilities are provided. Rostered duty groups under the guidance of the group's meal manager quickly learn to prepare simple nourishing breakfasts, lunches and dinners. These offer excellent life skills development for participants.

"Safari Meals" - with a Cook
Our KANES cook travels ahead of the group and purchases the food and prepares the meals, allowing us more time on the road for different learning experiences. This option is most economical with larger groups.

Meals "on-own"
Most itineraries include 2 of these. They are taken at places where there is a wide choice available. They enable guests to explore this part of New Zealand in their own free time, meet some locals and select their own personal food preferences while obtaining a different learning perspective into the food and culture of a different country.

Fast foods
These are popular for special occasions however KANES have no wish to use these frequently preferring to encourage healthy energizing fare.

Restaurants
On the trails there are many different restaurants that cater for all local and international cuisines and budgets.    Restaurants are quite expensive compared to other countries and their use throughout a tour is often beyond the budget of many groups. However as a special treat they can be a memorable addition on the odd occasion for these groups.

Vegetarian and Special Diets
All meal options can cater for these at no extra charge. Guests with these requirements are asked to help meet the extra work required with Safari meals.

Halal Requirements
 KANES Safari meals have available Halal meals if notification is made 5 weeks in advance of departure.  KANES  help you fined restaurants and fast food outlets that meet the requirements.
