Travel NZ Motorhomes
Arrangements all made by email but company called to confirm.
Very helpful and efficient. Campervan is perfectly adequate, showing its age/usage but does the job.

Hooker Valley Track
Great walk, not too taxing.
Several 'suspension' bridges to cross but nothing too challenging. Strong footwear a must if strained ankles are to be avoided.

South Island ▷ Queenstown Region ▷ Kingston ▷
Kingston TOP 10 Holiday Park
Small, family run site.
Basic facilities but clean. Fine for a one night stay on the way to Fiordland. No views but quiet and well located.

Mount John Summit Circuit
Went up the steep shorter route and down the much longer 'back' way.
Breathtaking views at the top and on the way down. Strongly advise doing this way round!

Day cruise on Doubtful Sound.
Picked up at campsite, great boat trips (Manapouri, Lake and Doubtful Sound) and powerstation visit. Well run and good value.
Thanks Denise - this feedback will be helpful for other travellers this coming summer season. We appreciate the time you took to do it.

Dark Sky Project
Blessed with a crystal clear night and no moon, plus two knowledgable hosts.
Quite pricey but a great way to pick up some astro information.
