Day 66 – 72 Coromandel and the Northlands
Our final days in New Zealand walking in tunnels, through gorges, along beaches, up massive sand dunes and through stands of gigantic Kauri trees. A pretty awesome ending to our time here.
Days 62-65 Rotorua
Our favourite area in New Zealand? Quite possibly!! Ridiculous colour lakes, hot water bubbling from the ground, the satisfying sound of mud pools and some of the most beautiful hills we’ve ever seen!
Days 57-61 Wellington to Waitomo

Days 53-56 Christchurch to Wellington
A few days with a fair amount of travel on coaches and a boat to move between these two cities. We stopped at Kaikoura for a dose of whales, seals and beautiful coastlines though. Oh, and the beach of death…
Day 48-52 Queenstown to Christchurch
Our final days in the RV following our cloudy, grumpy spell turned out to be pretty perfect! Sunny skies, picture perfect lakes and mountains, stunning waterfalls and great walks. Almost made us like the RV in the end….
Days 45-47 – Dunedin to Queenstown
