If you're on a budget and staying near Queenstown, their public transit is pretty great! The buses were pretty much always on time (I was there in Autumn so I'm not sure about winter snow affecting routes) and it's SO CHEAP. I think I spent $20NZ for 5 days which included transport from the airport almost directly to my airbnb and of course back into town. I went with a tour company to go the milford sound and another for Glenorchy since this was my first solo travel experience, but would definitely go back and spend more time there!

@inthegreatwide Жыл бұрын
Good info! It seems like there isn't much public transport that takes you outside of Queenstown though, right? We're looking at visiting the wine cave that's about 25 minutes outside of Queenstown and Google Maps isn't coming up with public transit options.

I would love to watch another video with more in-depth information about the security coming into the country that you talked about; that's really important information to have! Also, which winery tour were you showing footage from? Drinking wine with that view of the lake and the mountains that you showed is exactly what we're looking for!

I did the same drive Queenstown to Milford sound only to arrive in foggy rainy weather, so couldn't see a thing and 1meter waves. So check the weather prior to going and make sure you have the option to cancel. Alternatively, fly into Milford when the weather is good if staying in Q'twn for a couple of days.

Great tip to check the weather! It was so gorgeous when we did it I didn’t even think about what it’d be like when it’s foggy! I did the flight a few years ago and LOVED it. The boat cruise was cool too 😊 thanks so much for watching and sharing! Have a great day. Phoebe x

Whoops I’m running late this weekend! I really hope travel bans are lifted soon as I miss the traveling a lot, my latest trip was Australia at the beginning of 2020 just before the coronavirus came🥺. I’ve got New Zealand planned around Christmas and NYE 2022/2023, as that’s the one out of 3 years I get both weeks off and COVID-19 should be gone by then. Thanks for your insights in motorhomes and their costs! I was surprised by the high costs for food and hotels, then I realised the currency difference between NZD and EUR 😅. The South island seems so beautiful 😍 it’s heaven for nature lovers! I’m glad that Matt recovered well from his anaphylaxis🤒! Thanks for sharing your tips including the local rules and law and have a great week 🤙!

It’s going to be very, very cold and you should definitely hire snow chains and watch tutorials on how to fit them! I don’t personally know the aqua but we’ve driven in small cars, SUVs and sedans and been fine
