Mount / Mt Arthur Tableland Circuit
4.5/5
Very steep gravel road to car park.
Really lovely 3.6 km walk to the hut. Go slightly higher for the view over Kahurangi National Park and the coast. Weather permitting.

4.5/5
Looks a bit shabby but actually toilets and showers kitchen facilities are excellent, not the most picturesque setting (next to the milk factory) But it's hokitika it doesn't matter.

Only 2km return but sensational waterfall at the end.

Rental Car Village
3.5/5
Rental car-Micro camper-pretty old car, but good value for money, only one problem so far, having driven over 5000 KM.
Company overnight couriered spare part. I am travelling alone-it would be a squeeze for fit 2 people in here + luggage.

South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Doubtful Sound ▷
Doubtful Sound Day Cruise
2.5/5
Pretty expensive but you get a lot for your money-Lake Manapouri, power station, Doubtful Sound, very touristy.
Pack them in. I happened to be on a coach with screaming loud children/babies. This was not pleasant and children under a certain age should be banned from this once in a lifetime experience. What does a 6 week old get out of it anyway.

South Island ▷ Coastal Otago ▷ Dunedin ▷
Taieri Gorge Railway
3.0/5
Touristy and at $89 quite expensive.
I enjoyed the scenery but something I can't put my finger on was missing. Maybe an authentic train would have helped.
