Key Summit Track
Good overlooking of the area.
Marion Lake for instance. Path is uphill only and then downhill only.

Franz Josef Glacier Guides
They over exaggerate what you need to bring.
Even the day before they tell you to bring 3 - 4 layers of clothes, even if guides wear only 1 t-shirt. We packed all the layers and then had to carry them in our backpack because it was too hot to wear them. Information provided should be better.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Wilsons Abel Tasman
Timetables used were not the same one on the brochure.
If we didn't ask captain for pick up time, we could miss our boat that came 10min before timetable, (and left straight away). Why display time tables if they are not respected.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Motueka ▷
Motueka TOP 10 Holiday Park
Really nice camping.
Grass everywhere. Large slot to park big campervans. Playground, outdoor chess, pizza oven, ice cream stall. 5 min away from Motueka shops and restaurant.

North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Auckland ▷
Apollo Motorhome Holidays
Really cheap rentals but they always find something that you have to pay for.
For instance; they don't give back your credit charge surcharge on excess ( and nobody tells you before, its not mentioned anywhere. 2% of $2500 is a big surcharge. This should be included in all quotes and correctly displayed). Campervan leaks water. We have to pay for all accessories.

Kaiteriteri Recreation Reserve
50c/shower for 6 min.
This should be forbidden in camping grounds. No more showers where you have to pay. Especially if you pay for 6 min shower time and not get hot water. Camping has a nice location and a lot of activities around.

South Island ▷ Canterbury ▷ Akaroa ▷
Swimming with Dolphins Akaroa
Good organisation, swimsuit snorkel and mask are provided.
Staff were nice and funny. Water was really really cold. Once we saw dolphins cruising around us we forgot the cold water and enjoyed the Hector dolphins.

South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Doubtful Sound ▷
Doubtful Sound Overnight Cruise
Great cruise, nice overview of the Fiords.
The night on the water is not really peaceful. The engine for the generator is running all night and is really noisey. Wake-up at 7am was hard after a short night. Nice food and friendly staff.
-
South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Te Anau ▷
Te Anau Tasman Holiday Parks
Each spot was so small, (smallest weve ever seen).
For $45 it's not worth it. They start to clean the toilets around 9am when most users need them. Dump station is on a path where you block traffic while you dump.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Abel Tasman Coast Track
Easy 4 hour track, Nice views on all bays but most of time you walk under tree and you only see trees.
Cleopatras pool is a nice stop for a bath. High/low tide impact walking time and this should be displayed everywhere and not only at the tidal track part.

South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Te Anau ▷
Te Anau Wildlife Centre
Free park advertised to see some Takahe.
We saw only 1 far away and only the back. There is a lot of information about NZ birds. Its a free outdoor park worth a visit if you have some time left.
