InterCity Group is the Inbound Tour Operator Council winner of its annual Operator of the Year award.
InterCity is 100 per cent New Zealand owned and operates the largest piece of transport infrastructure in the country. The group's national network provides a daily capacity of more than 7000 seats and carries more than two million passengers a year.

It has developed a five year strategy to grow Asian markets, especially China, and is working with key partners in the Japanese market to expand tour business into destinations like the Bay of Islands and Hokianga. This will not only support InterCity's own products, but bring business to other operators and accommodation providers.
In October 2009, InterCity launched Ipipiri, a $12 million overnight cruise ship in the Bay of Islands and the biggest new product investment in the area in 12 years.
It is also about to launch a new 'hop on-hop off' CitySights tour that will connect Wellington's main visitor attractions.
