We recently returned from touring around both North and South Islands for one month: 2 x girls aged 13 and 11 years with mum and dad in a 6 berth Kea: we got a little fractious towards the end!
We picked the van up in Christchurch: thanks to Paul for his excellent and thorough run thro' the basics.I was a campervan virgin! We returned the van in Auckland and our transfer and handover with Rachel was lovely and stress free: thanks! The experience was absolutely wonderful.The van was "mint", the roads a little less so! Still there was very little traffic compared to the U.K. We would welcome another opportunity to drive off into the horizon, preferably without the kids! Thanks Kea..we'll be back!

What a lovely and beautifully managed Holiday Park!
Mike and his wife run a fabulous little gem of a place. It was immaculate. Mike was a superb host and nothing was too much trouble. He really works far too hard!! My daughters, me and my wife were given a riverside pitch and he accomodated us for 2 x extra nights at very short notice! We had been travelling around NZ , both Islands for one month sampling various Holiday Parks: I felt this was the best. Its' intimacy, Mike's kindness and his sweeping and tidying the gravel to make sure it remained pristine were lovely memories. The fish weren't running up the river, a real shame, but I had a sensational day's guided "helicopter" fly fishing with John Hamill (Hamill Guiding) who picked me up at Waiteti. Thank you Mike (and wife) we won't forget you! Guy and Anne-Marie Robertshaw + girls (loved the kayaks!). Durham. England.

My wife and two daughters (13 + 11 years) spent a fabulous and exciting day with Brett (my wife thinks this was his name!!!), who was very friendly, humourous, and she said "had a lovely nature!" Meanwhile
I was fly fishing with a guide up the stunning Makarora River. They loved it... the highlight of a thrill packed holiday for them: views of Mount Aspiring...Lords of the Rings territory, and 360 degree spins!
They would recommend this to anyone!! Mint!! Written onn behalf of my wife Anne-Marie Robertshaw: Durham. England
