Doherty Creek (Franz Joseph)
Good flat ground.
Big area, lots of spots but very popular so get here early for a good spot.

Hillview Camping Stay
Lovely grassed site, surrounded by their hobby farm which are very quiet.
Great campsite
Owners are very friendly offering me free food and the prospect of a hot shower (coin operated)
They had a horse, miniature pony, and sheep.
Great site, so happy I stayed here and didn't pay the extra to stay at the other campsite near nugget point :)
Thank you very much glad you enjoyed your stay

Escape Campervan Rentals
Rented a campervan for 1 month Christchurch pickup and Auckland drop off.
Staff were very friendly and helpful with booking and at both depots - very easy to deal with.
Van was mechanically sound and had absolutely no issues throughout.
Van was surprisingly fuel efficient for size.
Great van - made my holiday one to remember!
Could not recommend highly enough :)
THANK YOU EMMA! Awesome review - so pleased that you had a good trip and the van gave you some cool memories :)
Cheers

South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Milford Sound - Fiordland National Park ▷
Roscos Milford Kayaks
Wouldn't do Milford Sound any other way.
Saw heaps of seals (5+), saw a Fiordland Penguin feeding on a fish, and Stirling Falls from directly underneath.
What a day!
Don't need to be overly fit to take part in these either.
Good 3hr trip :)

North Island ▷ Waikato ▷ Waitomo ▷
Black Water Rafting Labyrinth Tour
Did the Black Abyss tour and was great fun - seemed a bit slow going in parts but it was a really fun experience.
Great experience
Would recommend this experience - worth the money as it is such a long experience and you're doing so much - abseiling, climbing up waterfalls, looking close up to glowworms and heaps more.
Other people we went with were great fun and guides were funny and made the experience
A bit disappointing that I couldn't take my go pro down with me.

South Island ▷ Kaikoura Region ▷ Kaikoura ▷
Seal Swim Kaikoura
Great family run business - however seems to be slightly abrupt and unwelcoming on booking.
Had a great day and swam with seals darting towards and around me.
Was great to be in the water with them!
-
South Island ▷ Coastal Otago ▷ Palmerston ▷
Shag Point / Matakaea
This free attraction was by far the best thing I did in my 1 month visit to NZ!
DO NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY
Plentiful seals that you can get very close to
A real natural wildlife experience.
-
South Island ▷ Coastal Otago ▷ Oamaru ▷
Steam Punk Museum
Didn't take my fancy, small area - very odd.
Nothing to do, just look at weird industrial constructions and videos, and a mirrored light room.
Wouldn't bother

North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Auckland ▷
Auckland North Shore Motels & Holiday Park
It cost me $39 for 1 night, showers cost $1 for 4 minutes ontop of that.
DO NO STAY HERE
I stayed here the last night of my holiday
They didn't even provide cooking utensils in the communal kitchen - you had to not only pay a deposit to rent them, they charged a rental cost on them aswell.
Not a user friendly site at all.
Tiny tv in tv room.
Facilities were clean.
