- If you're thinking about a New Zealand holiday and want to know some of the top things to do and the best places to visit in New Zealand you're in the right place!... Unlock our full Queenstown guide for over 50 more recommendations and a map view to take on the go: geni.us/queenstownguide ⬇ Read More Below ⬇
A New Zealand holiday is what dreams are made of! As a couple of proud Kiwis we want you to have the best time here, so this video is a recap of our adventure with an overload of information to help with your New Zealand travel planning!
We tried to make a video that we personally would have wanted to find before we planned our holiday in our motorhome / campervan - so hopefully even if you're from NZ yourself this is still valuable to you.
Our full Queenstown guide will make sure you:
→ Save weeks of your life aimlessly researching
→ Have 10x more recommendations than what we mentioned in this video guide
→ Get instant access to years of local knowledge
→ Know the best things to do, where to eat & drink and the best places to stay
→ Have a digital map of all locations (including opening hours)
→ Travel with a mobile guide and app you can open on-the-go
→ And ultimately have an amazing and stress-free holiday!
→ Take a look here: geni.us/queenstownguide

Reveal NZ was a 23 part video series in a campervan showing the ultimate New Zealand holiday. Though to be fair, we still had recommendations about some of the top things to do in New Zealand that we missed of the best places to visit that we either a) couldn't get to for what ever reason, b) regret not spending enough time at or c) didn't plan in at all - so you can benefit from that! More than just taking a motorhome around New Zealand, the videos were about how to travel New Zealand, the top tourist spots, the hidden local gems, incredible day trips, extreme activities, amazing accommodation and a spot of wining and dining... The series is about making you feel like you're along for the travels with us, so grab a drink of your poison, sit back and get ready for 5 weeks driving in a campervan hire from Auckland to The Catlins.

You’re probably not expecting a comment, what, two years after posting this. But my wife and I, dopey Americans, have thoroughly enjoyed your adventures and patterned a lot of our month in New Zealand just now after your travels.
We’re both older, late-50s, but your tips and insider information truly helped inform our itinerary. As partially retired photojournalists, every inch of your country was awe-inspiring. We even took to exclaiming - like Daneger did - “MAAAATE … mate!” whenever we were awestruck by something (which was often).
We thank you both profusely for documenting your journeys. “Good job making it to the end; hopefully it was helpful?” It was wonderfully helpful. We’re glad we listened, MAAAATE.
Rodney and Marci
Maaaaattttttte - we're glad you both had an amazing time! SO glad our vids have been helpful for your travels
This is by the far the best New Zealand travel guide I’ve seen. I feel incredibly lucky to be living in this beautiful country!
What a compliment, thank you! We feel super grateful to be here too!
I’m in australia hoping to get to New Zealand these holidays
Absolutely fantastic 😍Loved it. Thank you
Thank you!
I live in Auckland, NZ and these guys did a fantastic job presenting our country to the world
Aw thanks Karen, we really appreciate that!
NZ is an overrated moldy failed attempt at a socialist project. The horse did plenty of damage during Covid. Avoid to live. Beware to visit.
We very much enjoy every NZ video that you post. We hope that you’ll do more! We’ve traveled around NZ on 3 holidays (one month each) and, thanks to you, we’re encouraged to return to visit all the places we’ve missed! (Along with some of the places where we should’ve spent more time). I discovered the “notion app” thanks to you as well! Many thanks!
Just a simple thank you says it all.

Hi guys really love watching your vlogs, they are very informative and well put together and importantly fun. I'm planning a trip in November this year and have been getting some prices and have been quoted $3400 for 1 week hire of a 6 berth motorhome with the company you guys used. Just enquiring if the prices you quoted are much less in this video due to the fact it was during the Covid period with no travellers from other countries?
Yeah for season 1 we got a special during COVID, season 2 we teamed up with Motorhome Republic (now GoSee Travel) so pricing would vary. Hunt around though, Maui is top tier but Britz and Mighty are older but still looked good to us
@@DanegerAndStacey Thanks very much for the prompt reply and I will check out those companies. I'm celebrating my 50th whilst there so might take some inspiration from you time in Queenstown for Stacey's 30th. All the best guys.
I just wanted to thank you guys. My wife and i stumbled upon your channel last year when we were planning our trip to NZ. We watched all your NZ content. It really shaped our whole trip in so many ways. Couldn't be more appreciative, and ill be recommending you guys to family and friends who plan to travel NZ and beond. Keep up the amazing content.
Thanks Phil! We're so glad you found us and the vids have been helpful
As usual a fantastic informative summing up of your amazing trip.

That's what we were aiming for! Thanks so much - happy to hear it!
You guys are killing it… I’ve been watching your videos NON-Stop for 2 weeks now, and can’t wait to use your recommended tips for when we come in November!
Thanks David! So happy to have helped
Thanks very much for the efforts you’ve put in to making an exciting and informative how-to and what-to series. Very helpful for this guy planning a trip from across the ditch!
Glad to hear Chris!
NZ is an overrated moldy failed attempt at a socialist project. The horse did plenty of damage during Covid. Avoid to live. Beware to visit.

That's awesome to hear! Hopefully that day is sooner rather than later - thanks for watching!!
Great overview, excellent advice e.g. winter travel, we love travelling in the winter for exact same reasons - off season, less people. Love also that you correctly pronounce Māori place names. Thanks for a great guide!

Very interesting video, it is a good break down of your New Zealand holiday. What a wonderful place New Zealand must be to live in, you guys are very lucky to live there. It looks like parts of US west coast, Yellowstone and Hawaii all rolled into one place, wow. Thanks for all the great fun videos of New Zealand. Hope you have a great Christmas season 🎅 and may 2021 be a better year. Stay safe.
🎄😎
We do feel extremely lucky to call this place home, especially now! Thank you, same to you! Merry Christmas!

So great, I enjoyed a lot watching
Really happy to hear that! Thank you :)
Thank you so much for this travel guide!! I’m about to embark on a 7 week road trip in NZ start north and then going south as well so this is so helpful!!
You're so welcome - enjoy!
Love it guys!!!
Thanks Jessica! 😊
LOVE IT GUYS!
Cheers mate! Hope you're keeping well - really hoping we can get down to Abel Tasman this summer!!
I'm betting that here will be a big rush on RV rentals over there after all your videos! You guys did a great job of promoting your country, and it's given everyone so many ideas of what to come and see.
Haha lucky Maui! Thank you, that's really nice of you to say :)
Awww man, I've been binge watching this channel Absolutely loved this content!!! Can not wait to learn some more tips.
Love a good binge watching sesh! Let's hope we can bring you a season 2 next year :)
We just finished our motorhome trip around the SI and this video was invaluable! Thanks for the tip about the bridge! Thought of Stacey when penguins came up to our motorhome in the middle of the night 🐧
WHHHAAAT you could pengys at your door? That's so not fair - but stoked for you guys
Best couple, best video, best country. From Australia if you get a chance to explore NZ then don't second guess it...just go!
Amazing! Lucky you guys
Thank you!
Great video, and awesome place to travel to.
Glad you enjoyed it Thanks
NZ is beautiful country. You just gotta get lucky with the weather
This must have been a beast of a video to put together - good job
Haha you're not wrong! It took an insane amount of work but if we can help one person plan a similar trip then it's worth it! Thank you
Excellent
Great way of ending the NZ adventure. Everything has a cost! I ran out the commercials hopefully helping on your revs. You guys are high production, do what you do best!
For awhile I was like, is leaving four comments too much? And then I thought nah, the more comments the channel gets the better right?
@@angie23575 yes a personal comment makes it a personal touch!
@@angie23575 We love seeing all your comments come through - never too many ❤️
@@miszced Can't tell ya how much we appreciate that - thank you!
NZ is an overrated moldy failed attempt at a socialist project. The horse did plenty of damage during Covid. Avoid to live. Beware to visit.
So happy I found your channel. I’m going for a 2 week trip to Wellington, Christchurch and Queenstown.
We're glad you found us too! Sounds like an awesome trip, hope you have the best time 😊
Loved your video guys! We pretty much had the same route back in 2019 and loved everything! New Zealand is a dream country!
One more recommendation if you haven't done it already is the Great Barrier Island - north east of Auckland. It's a beautiful isolated place where you can unwind on the beaches, a nice hike up to a hot water spring (you barely find any people there) in the middle of a forest. And of course stargazing in the famous dark sky sanctuary!
Great recommendation! We've not been to Barrier or to Stewart island either actually - still lots to discover!
Good job guys, best video ever 👏
Thanks!
Your vlog is the best! 👏💛
We agree haha kiddinggg... kinda
Love all of your video...
Aw thank you!
Forget Ron & Bob, those turkeys. We love you and your content! Haha. Please keep it coming!
Hahaha too funny! Thanks so much :)
Thank you!!!!
Thank YOU!
Very off topic, but that color blue compliments your skin so well, very beautiful! & great video!
Amazing
Thanks
Now I'm gonna have to go back and watch all those uploads again - its almost like watching a favourite TV series again.
Love that! Hope you enjoy it just as much the second time round :)
Amazing series. Love NZ would love to go again since I’ve only been to Queenstown n Wellington
Hope you get to come back someday!
@@DanegerAndStacey Definetly! Suppose to be our honeymoon destination :-) and we still have not got a chance to go!!\
Great video. 🤙
Thanks 👍
Hii very insightful video guys!, please make a video specific on Queenstown. Overall I have enjoyed your NZ road trip.
We have made a few videos on Queenstown - you should check them out :)
Finally watched your New Zealand road trip all ep I done
Will follow your itinerary next year
Say hi frome Thailand 🇹🇭 🙏🙏🙏
Yay - thanks for watching!
I watched this for absolutely no reason 😂 I just think you guys are great
Thanks Angie! You're the best
Greetings from Santa Cruz Cali. Really enjoy your video's. Great way to stay connected to NZL. My wife and I have made three trips over the last 4 years (a month each trip) and can't wait to get back. The only region we haven't visited is East coast North Island. Cheers
Wow that's awesome you have managed to do that many trips! Hopefully you can come back sometime and do the east coast of the north! We're just in the process of planning a trip down that way!
Brilliant video and very informative and helpful tips 👍👏👏💚
As they say back here Slainte mo chairde 😘
Keep up the awesome work love from 🇮🇪☘💚😘
Thank you! So happy to hear you found it helpful. Sending love & good vibes to Ireland!
I got under it after I was over there next year three weeks earlier. I didn't wait for him tomorrow after the spaghetti broke but the Samoyed said after it bit the roof Daryl became similar to the day.
thanks for this very helpful video. We are travelling from Scotland and will be spending 5 weeks in NZ this Oct. still trying to put our itinerary together and decide on car or van rental.....
Glad it was helpful! For the North island we think a car is best, South for a campervan
Awesome video guys! The content is killer, we can’t wait to get across there! Chris & Laura :)
Cheers guys, really apprecaiet that! :)
My friend & I plan to go to NZ in 2024. Planning on living in Campervan throughout the vacation..lol
You'll love it!
Love your tours. So interesting and beautifully photographed. Lindsay T. Gordon
Thanks Lindsay
Hi, I recently discovered your channel when researching for our upcoming holiday in NZ and yours is definitely the best! I love your energy and practical recommendations. We're booked to go in July with plans to drive a few days each in both islands. We're a bit concerned about winter road conditions especially in the South Island where we hope to drive from Queenstown to Christchurch via Franz Josef and Arthur's Pass. Any advice for driving this route in the winter is much appreciated! 😊🙏
Thanks so much! 😊 Sounds like a fun trip. It;s unpredictable driving those roads in winter, sometimes it's all snow, others it's not bad at all. You'll likely get chains, but depending on where you rent you might not get some proper advice about how and where to use them. It's pretty common around the world though, so do some RUclips research about how to put them on, where you might need them etc before you travel!
Love this chanel
Preferably No.5, but any will do.
Thank you!
Y'all are making me want to visit NZ more than i already do. greetings from the US of A :))
Haha then we've done our job properly 😋Hope you get to visit soon!
@@DanegerAndStacey You have no idea how much i wanna visit lol
Hi going next week- really useful video. Those drone shots are great- did you have any issues flying your drone in the South Island? Did you have get permits?
Love nz
