Doing S. Island of NZ in Feb - is there an NZ equivalent of Exploroz ?

What do you want to know I lived there for 50 years.

Two months wouldnt see all of it.

Hi Willie,

We went anit clockwise as this means you wife, is not looking over the never ending cliffs that are on the coastal loop. 2 weeks will be quick. Do not get anything larger than a merc sprinter or equivilant if you are getting a motor home. We had a larger united and it was trickly on the NZ roads. They are not in love with safety rails on the edge of the road there, even thought they are lovely people.

Stay at Top 10 parks there and if you are a Big 4 member, you will not need to become a top 10 member. Take your card with you.

Make the south last as it really is the highlight. We did the Milford Sound overnight cruise. (Milford Mariner) There is only one company that does it. Expensive (About $1500 a night) but certainly worth it. A bucket List event.

While not directly answering your query I found www.jasons.com particularly useful when we did 2 weeks over there in 2005. It was good for accommodation and car hire in our case but there was lots of other stuff on the site too.

Somethings better than nothing, not sure if there would be anything of interest but worth a look, i assume you're a member already.

Hey Willie
Are you floating the BT across the ditch?

Alex, Carpe and Carl - thanks for your help. Graham has gone to a lot of trouble with a list of spots and an itinerary, so with all your help I am getting somewhere.

Thanks again,

Willie.
