Tongariro Alpine Crossing
We have done it in the winter time (October) and had show at the top.
It was exhausting but the best track I have done in my life. Excellent views!!

North Island ▷ Rotorua Region ▷ Waiotapu ▷
Kerosene Creek
It is a hot water river you can take a bath in.
The best time to visit the river is in spring because the air isn't so hot then. It is a lovely place.

Waimangu Volcanic Valley
You can see the Frying Pan Lake and a lot of steam over the water and stones.
You can read also the interesting history about the volcanic valley. But it was not so cheap!

North Island ▷ Wellington Region ▷ Wellington ▷
Museum of New Zealand
It is a huge museum about everything (animals, Maori, art).
You can spend more than a day here.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Abel Tasman Coast Track
We just did a day walk from Totaranui to the Separation Point and back.
It shows you beautiful beaches, golden sand and at the Separation Point we saw a few seals.

It was an awesome day!!

The Silky Oak Chocolate Company
In the museum you can read a lot of things about cocoa plants and how you get the chocolate but nothing else.
I thought it was a bit boring.
