North Island ▷ Rotorua Region ▷ Rotorua ▷
Waimangu Volcanic Valley
3.5/5
It is quite nice, especially the first part, but the Thermal Wonderland we liked much more and it is even a bit cheaper.
Both are touristic in good weather.

South Island ▷ Canterbury ▷ Christchurch ▷
Happy Campers
3.5/5
We have got a Happier 3 version and it runs very well.
A diesel engine would be nicer though. Some things in the interior could be more modern and arranged a bit more clever. We have had a few issues yet, but they try to help you fast.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Abel Tasman Aqua Taxi
4.5/5
They are really cool but could have stopped one or two times more.
-
South Island ▷ Wanaka Region ▷ Wanaka Township ▷
Rocky Mountain and Diamond Lake
4.5/5
Spectacular view of Lake Wanaka!
If you are around it is a must do (in non rainy weather conditions). Some parts quite steep and a little muddy, so do not go in flip flops.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Abel Tasman ▷
Abel Tasman Coast Track
4.5/5
Really nice beaches and views of green rivers.
Would have expected a slightly more impressive walk though.
-
South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Milford Sound - Fiordland National Park ▷
Mitre Peak Cruises
5.0/5
Best boat tour I have done so far.
Nice scenery, seals, dolphins, a penguin and the perfect boat size and very friendly crew.
-
South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ Golden Bay ▷
Rawhiti Cave route
5.0/5
Nice 40 minute walk along a river and through native bush up to a spectacular cave.
Good shoes recommended, especially if carrying a baby as sometimes quite steep and muddy.
