North Island ▷ Taupo Region ▷ Taupo ▷
4.0/5
No showers, basic toilets, no other facilities but free and next to Waikato River.
Chrystal clear water better than a shower in the morning.
North Island ▷ Ruapehu ▷ Tongariro / National Park Village ▷
1.5/5
I think the 3 day track of Tongariro Northern Circuit is enough.
There is no need to expand to 5 days for equal nature.
North Island ▷ Northland ▷ Kaitaia ▷
3.5/5
With the right weather (even with clouds) it is a great place to see a sunset.
North Island ▷ Wellington Region ▷ Wellington ▷
4.0/5
If you do not like museums that much and don't want to pay for them Te Papa is the best place to go.
North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Auckland ▷
4.0/5
Old campervan with good maintenance, runs very well, cheap, good service, some problems with fridge and waterpump.
North Island ▷ Waikato ▷ Matamata ▷
2.0/5
Cool to see the LOTR movie set, nice background comments from the guide.
Sadly for a huge amount - $66.
North Island ▷ Ruapehu ▷ Tongariro / National Park Village ▷
5.0/5
Even though it was crowded with tourists it was an amazing walk through different ladscapes.
A stunning view nearly during the whole walk.
North Island ▷ Manawatu - Wanganui ▷ Whanganui River ▷
3.0/5
Nice tour on Wanganui River through beautiful river landscape.
Things on guiding maps were explained, a bit confusing eg obstacles in water, rapids). Good price, good for families with older kids. I think there are more amazing rivers to paddle.
