Franz Josef Glacier Walk
Dont let the 1 1/2hr sign put you off...
Its a very easy walk and you are looking at the glacier for most of it, so the time flies. Fairly flat terrain so not hard going either. Well worth the effort - amazing up close!!

Rainforest Retreat
Best campground we stayed at, in our 3 weeks in NZ.
Monsoons Restauarnt and Bar rocks! We were on our honeymoon and I still had to drag my husband home to our motorhome from this great bar! Great facilities and top customer service too.

Glacier Country Helicopters
We did a 30min trip over Fox and Franz Josef glaciers, stopping on the mountain looking down over Franz Josef.
SPECTACULAR!! Our pilot Jules was lovely and we loved the whole experience, even though my husband got airsick on the way back (much more to do with his drinking the night before than Jules' flying skills!).

Wilderness Motorhomes
John & Mary from Wilderness Motorhomes were a pleasure to deal with right from our initial query.
Even with a few minor hiccups, their customer service level was unparalleled in our experience - they really know how to make a customer feel valued!
The motorhome itself was lovely, the drying room was excellent!!! Anyone considering doing NZ in their winter (like we did) will have no hassles at all keeping warm and dry if you get on of these beaut vans. Plenty of room for a really great price - less than $85 AUD day.
Thanks Wilderness - we will definetely be back!
