Excuse me - just digging out this video as we have booked the ferry over to the South Island for Christmas / New Year and we are seriously considering / most likely doing this trip. Heath and Alyssa still influencing impressionable kiwis since 2018!
@3:53 made me laugh. Fiordland gets 1.2 meters of rain annually, 12 meters would be absolutely insane! Been enjoying your videos from Wellington New Zealand.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this and all of your New Zealand videos! They helped so much when I was planning a trip there last year. I didn't even know about Doubtful Sound until your video and once I saw it, I knew I needed to go. My friend I ended up going on a different smaller boat than you guys in Doubtful Sound and it was the highlight of our RVing trip through NZ.
I made the same journey last month (January 2019) with Real Journeys during the day. I have serious sunset envy. Glad you enjoyed your mini cruise! FYI, Doubtful Sound is three times the size of Milford and Doubtful seems to be the favorite with Kiwis.
This was great to watch! Last year we did Milford Sound and have been contemplating maybe doing doubtful sound this year! You guys make it very tempting!
You guys definitely went on the better of the sounds, Doubtful is so much quieter and more fun to get to than Milford. We did Doubtful Sound in December 2015 and boy did it rain! Didn't stop me getting out and experiencing everything on offer though. Can't get enough NZ stuff, gotta go back soon.
So we just did island hopping in Hawaii for 3 weeks. This looks similar to the Napali Coast off of Kauai. I heard you mentioned this was like Hawaii meets the Alps. After seeing Hawaii, is this cruise worth it? We have been underwhelmed with the pictures and videos thus far.
Did anyone occupy the other two beds in your room, or was it just the two of you? Also, surprised Heath wasn't refused entry to NZ for never having seen the LOTR movies; ... thought that was a requirement to get a visa.
Dick Carlson 😂😂 my goal is always to produce the shortest video possible. It was a great point of contention that this video ended up being over ten minutes!
if you cant find wild penguins, there is a rescue group in the international Antarctic centre of penguins that aren't able to survive in the wild in Christchurch, it not a bad place to check out as well.
I REALLY wanted to downsize. We listed our Winnebago for sale and everything. But then Heath eventually won out and we decided to keep the Winnebago for a while longer, so it's back to a big roomy RV!
Thank you guys, great shots, outstanding clips..Done it, liked it and want to do it again and again
Cool talented couple. Amazing video. The place wouldn't be the same without all that rain.

We love the sound cruise so much!
I am so living vicariously through you guys on this whole trip!!!! Just gorgeous !!!
Thanks Karen! :)
New Zealand is just an insanely beautiful country. How lucky you are to be able to enjoy so much of it. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Hi Andrew. It is insane. 12 metres is correct.

Awesome video :) Glad to see you are enjoying our beautiful country!
Thanks Matthew! Doubtful was so rad. - Heath

You bet Carolyn :)

Always An Adventure With Kids we loved it! I would definitely recommend.
@@heathandalyssa Awesome! Thanks! We really enjoy seeing some of the less traveled places!
I'm so glad you guys did the cruise. What a killer trip.
Also, glad to know we're not the only nudist kayakers out there.😂😂😂
Cruising with clothes on is overrated. - Heath
Spectacular! Thanks for sharing your NZ trip!!
Added this cruise to my bucket list!

Thanks Nigel! We agree. Doubtful was amazing!! We really got lucky seeing the sun.
Absolutely gorgeous!!🌷🚍
That's probably the only part of NZ I've not been to!! So pleased you got to experience it :-)
Just rewatching this video I was stunned to see how beautiful it was all over again!
My fiance and I are doing this in just a little over a month from now for my 30th birthday! I'm so excited!
It was so much fun! Y'all will love it.
That is a crazy beautiful place!! Thanks....
That was fun! Spectacular scenery.
So so beautiful x
Beauty second to none.
AngelSusie57 agreed!
Wow. What can i say...oh one thing. Look like Norway. Nice music, Nice video, Nice smile, you both are Nice. 👍🤝
Thanks Morten haha :)

Amazingly beautiful wow!

You two need to do a short class in "How To Make An Online Video". In every shot, you're DOING something. Short takes. Really moves things along.
I'd like to say it's all in the editing but I'm biased and just want all the credit. -Alyssa
Writing "short" is much harder than writing "long". You'd do the world a great service if you could convince young video noobs of that.

I'm a kiwi and just found your NZ vids and watched all 21, great job are you still in NZ or are the vids delayed ?
They are a little delayed. We just made it back stateside a couple weeks ago!
Wow!!
Just wondering what company you used for Doubtful sound cruise. And the price 🤩
It was called Real Journeys! I think it was like $200/person, but I don't remember...
I really want to go take that cruise. You two are so cute.
We loved it, especially the muffins. And thanks Charles! - Heath
Since living in this smaller RV, are you thinking of downsizing when you get home? Or are you missing your spacier Winnebago?
I REALLY wanted to downsize. We listed our Winnebago for sale and everything. But then Heath eventually won out and we decided to keep the Winnebago for a while longer, so it's back to a big roomy RV!
so funny
West arm is were the manapouri Power Station is.
Enjoying your vids! May I know the song at 4:08? Thank you!
I wish I could tell you! I had to send in my computer to get fixed and lost all my music. But it was one I found on Epidemic Sound.
@@heathandalyssa Thank you for getting back! Title is Perfect Photo by Ecmoynihan. Cheers!
