[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou so much! I’ve been in Summer, winter and Autumn. It’s absolutely beautiful anytime of year! 🙂💕

[@shellyslittleescapes]

Beautiful Vlog. Thank you for sharing. Is the snow cap mountains like that all year round or only during certain months?

[@LarissaDening]

Thank you so much Shelly! The snow capped mountains are from Winter through to Spring. The snow melts in Summer leaving the mountains bare! 😊

[@thewhitecollarcouple]

Amazing capture and a great video 😍

[@LarissaDening]

Thanks so much for watching! 😊

[@aidasw123]

Beautiful photos😍

[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou so much! 🙂🙏🏼

[@traceykelly2603]

Epic video and pictures. What are your brief thoughts on renting a car and staying in lodges etc. As opposed to a campervan vacation?

[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou! I did rent a car the first time I went to NZ and it was great too! If you don’t like campervanning then driving and hotels is a more comfortable way to do it! 😊

[@Nasser35684]

Thank you so much Larissa for sharing this beautiful video. On which month you did your trip? Thanks

[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou! I really appreciate your kind words! I did a few trips but they were mainly in July! 😊

[@georgestan7578]

Hello Larrisa, thanks for inspiration. Beautiful video. I will also start my journey soon and im gathering as much info as possible. Can you please let me know which company you got the campervan from? I am looking for a budget option if you have any recommendations. Thank you.

[@LarissaDening]

Hi George, thanks for watching! I used Wilderness campers which are great but not a budget option but they are only based out of Christchurch. The budget option we used from Queenstown was Jucy and they were fine to use. I guess it depends on the size that you need. I hope you have an awesome time over there!

[@FAMILYADVENTURE59]

This my adventure i like it nice to meet you.im from Indonesian

[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou so much! Nice to meet you to! 🙂

[@gempass]

How do you shoot the photo at 2:30? Its beautiful! Whats ur camera, lens and settings if you know? Thank you

[@LarissaDening]

This was shot at dusk and the Milky Way shot later in the night. It’s a composite shot! 🙂

[@debbiepark5917]

Great free camping video ❤

[@katiepaine]

I've got 2 weeks in November to campervan NZ, I'm excited but nervous. I want to see and do as much as possible but not feel rushed all the time :/ What would be the best times to drive place to place, evening? night? morning? day? I have so many questions but i'll leave it with that, thanks :)

[@LarissaDening]

That’s awesome Katie! The roads aren’t busy so driving any time is fine. If you are going to free camp at all it’s probably best to get to your destination before dark so you can see what’s around and where to park! The end of November is Lupin season so make sure you head to Lake Tekapo for that! 😊💕

[@katiepaine]

​@@LarissaDening ​ Ok thanks for the advice, i'll be there mid-november so hopefully the Lupins will greet me :) So i guess it's best to do the driving after morning, or maybe early morning. This is my first time doing a campervan, and first time in NZ. I heard from another NZ video that it's not necessary to pre-book a boat tour in Milford Sound because there's always room in the mornings before the tour busses arrive. Do you have any advice on that? Thanks :)

[@elizabethjones4137]

Hi Larissa, can you please share how many days this trip was in total? Did you end up back in Queenstown?

[@LarissaDening]

Hi Elizabeth, it was about 7 days and yes I did end up back in Queenstown to fly out! 😊

[@tggpphotography7919]

Fantastic Video!

[@LarissaDening]

Thank you very much!

[@nikhilojha1990]

The amounts are per person per night or per campervan per night?

[@harshitdoshi5367]

2:29 is my favorite picture, can you please share the location ?

[@LarissaDening]

Thankyou! That location is Glenorchy. Look for the jetty! You can’t miss it! 😊

[@zaklinden8786]

Thought you had to pay for Moke lake, ahh well know for next time 😊

[@LarissaDening]

It may have changed since I was there. Someone else did say you have to pay now which is a shame!

an american couple was just harrassed all the way around camping in NZ, then they even broke all their windows for no reason, they are so scared they are leaving immediately
