    I've just completed an incredible 3-month adventure in New Zealand. We drove from the South Pole to the North Pole and back. The South Island is filled with the most incredible scenery. If you ever find yourself back in Wanaka on a sunny day, you need to take the drive to Wishbone Falls.
    We're in Fiji now, working our way up towards Japan. A few years ago, you inspired my wife and me to travel through your videos, and I'm not sure if we'll ever return home.

      We live in Auckland and just got back from Queenstown, we were there for 4 days but it was too short, I’d love to stay in the South Island for at least 2 weeks.
      Definitely come between November- March.
      The rainy season isn’t good 😊 unless you want to ski!

    We love NZ. 7 months ago we went over (from AUS) and found Glenorchy to be the most stunning place. The drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy was the best drive we have ever done. We stopped for walks along the way including at Bob's Cove where we walked to the lookout for 360 degree views of the lake. We also did a walk (well, run because we were running out of light) at Glenorchy to Sylvan Lake. We were lucky to have very little wind and saw the reflection of snow capped mountains reflecting in the lake. We heard there are a lot of good walking tracks out there also!

I highly recommend the Grand Pacific Drive and the various old-growth giant eucalyptus forests dotted throughout Australia's coastal regions. Australia is a country of pure adventure and exploration.

    New Zealand is one of my favorite places. The scenery is incredible and the people are very friendly. Milford Sound and Fjordlands is my favorite area for scenery. Looks like you lucked out with sunny weather - all of the South Island is often chilly, cloudy and rainy. You know, the original Hobbiton was torn down as were all real LOTR sets after filming per agreement with the government, but it was rebuilt afterward with sturdy materials (the original was polystyrene). Did you go to the Green Dragon Inn? I'm late today due to time change.

      Thanks so much John! I agree with you regarding the Milford sound, I would love to visit more of the fjords by boat next time. Did you visit any of the other fjords in Fiordland? And that’s crazy Hobbiton was taken down and rebuilt for the hobbit. The farmers knew they had to capatilize on it the second time.

      @@RyanShirley I've only been there twice so I'm no expert and a lot of it requires multi day hikes and reserving huts in advance. I've only otherwise seen Doubtful Sound, but that requires an expensive overnight boat trip (includes dinner and breakfast) about $500 per person and you have to share a room for four people (not much luxury for a luxury price, but it's much quieter and less touristed than Milford). At Milford Sound I recommend hikes to Lake Marian or the shorter Lake Gunn Trail. Hope you didn't run into any sandflies!

    Could you please tell me what the climate felt like in New Zealand ? I once heard it kind of feels like in the UK.
    I guess the northern island feels more tropical than the southern island as it's slightly closer to the Equator but maybe you could share your thoughts about it.

    • @Zealandiascapes
      @Zealandiascapes 10 месяцев назад

      The coastal regions of South Island feel most similar to the PNW of the USA and the Valdivian Rainforest of Argentina and Chile, North island is very similar to the subtropical areas of the Canary Islands I would say. Definitely not like most of the UK though.

    • @RyanShirley
      @RyanShirley  10 месяцев назад

      The climate was pretty good, it rarely got too hot. Most days where jacket weather, South Island was a bit more cold. Sometimes it dumped rain. But New Zealand basically has every landscape from tropical beaches to mountains like the alps
