Stunning Queenstown to Glenorchy, New Zealand

[@kelvinwong9362]

Looking forward to your South Island series, the scenery is just so stunning. It is definitely on my bucket list.

[@PeterandYen]

Thanks Kelvin just finished the raw edits of the videos, think you'll enjoy the upcoming vlogs too 😄 🤙

[@hannahzhang7849]

We just had one week trip in Queenstown and one week trip in Wanaka. Near Glenorchy, paradise road and kinloch are also worthy visiting.

[@PeterandYen]

Nice thanks for the recommendations Hannah 😁👍

[@nickandhelmi]

Every vlog we look forward to Yen airbnb tour - 🤓 - always showcasing simple yet beautiful airbnb placee

[@PeterandYen]

Hahaha thanks guys it's all kudos to Peter and his good Airbnb finds though! 🙂 I like it more when he does the tours 😆

[@wandersg]

Looking forward to visit South Island again, for the 5th time :) . Thanks for sharing this awesome video.

[@PeterandYen]

No worries hope you get to go again soon. Thank you for watching 😁

[@intanasmira9809]

Visited South Island back in 2015, the best trip I've ever had.

[@RaceCarFriends]

I made sure and ate first before watching your video, and still ended up feeling hungry! Queenstown looks magical though!

[@PeterandYen]

😁 thinking about that bibimbap made me hungry too and just had a massive feed for dinner 😂 gonna break open some cheese 🧀 after this reply. Queenstown is a must if you're visiting NZ, brilliant spot 👌

[@RaceCarFriends]

@@PeterandYen Lol I can only imagine, and yeah I plan on visiting but I think I will go during the summer time lol.

[@PeterandYen]

Only thing about summer is the snowy peaks won't be snowy but at the same time you'll get to swim in the lakes and it'll be nice and warm hahaha tough choices

[@RaceCarFriends]

@@PeterandYen Lol yup it's swim in lakes over snowy peaks for me!

The first time we went to Glenorchy we got lost and ended in Paradise. Went back there again in 2017, we found it and took pic in front of the red shed too. Third time we ended up in Paradise again 🤣. I wanna go back there in autumn, it will be picturesque. Great ep guys 🙌

[@PeterandYen]

😂😂 thank you for sharing that with us. Good to know we're not the only ones that get majorly lost on our travels. How was paradise? Might pay a visit there next time you guys are experts in that area now 😂😂

[@ouradventerousdays]

@@PeterandYen we sure are 😅. I think instead of turning left to Glenorchy pier we turned right which lead us to the road and keep going to Paradise. It was a long drive and very little town, it has the sign Paradise too but you don't stop there yoy just keep driving and driving until the end of the road. Nothing there really except beautiful scenic drives but it's for people who want to do days of hiking. You need to 4wheel drives, you can do with a sedan too but might be risky because you have to cross an overflow creek, if it raining alot couple days before then you won't able to cross the creek with sedan but on a dried day u can.

[@ellykara1]

Lol you have to go through Glenorchy to get to Paradise. Perhaps you blinked at the wrong moment 🤣

[@rob1971]

Looks like you'd a lovely, relaxed start to your South Island tour guys. What a find with the accommodation too! I usually have trouble finding somewhere decent at a reasonable price, but that's partially my own fault as I book very little in advance when I'm touring so I've got more flexibility.

[@PeterandYen]

🤔 usually I like to book months ahead and often find real steals that way. But these days I only book a week or so in advance in case of lockdowns 😅 It's been much easier finding availabilities too cause there are much fewer tourists.

[@tooks7177]

Having driven through Glenorchy (many time's) on the way to Queenstown coming from Invercargill, the one thing that stood out in my mind of Glenorchy was their library - a building which was not that much bigger than an outhouse....keeping in mind that was a long long time ago. - obviously that library will be long gone now, but do they have anything in remembrance of that memory i had of the Glen. Thank's for the nostalgic moment guy's.

You should definitely try to visit Glenorchy on NY's Day, when the horse races take place. They are just so quintessentially Kiwi! And the views in Glenorchy! Boggles the mind, doesn't it?

Especially for you, Peter ! There would be plenty of delicious Shanghai food available at the new food shops over there as well for you to taste ! This park defines my childhood ! Yeah ! How long have you last visited this place in HK ???

[@PeterandYen]

😁🤔 wow probably haven't been to Ocean park in HK for 20 years. Last time I went to HK was 9 years ago right after we got married. Sounds awesome! yen hasn't been yet so one day when the borders open for sure we will be visiting.

South def has better views than north island i can say. But nz is just beautiful jn general 😍

[@PeterandYen]

Hahahaha true South island is amazing. But as a North islander I dunno if it's better than north island. Would say uniquely different 🤔 😂👍

[@jamrefugio]

@@PeterandYen just the views, would still rather stay in north 😂

Hi, Thanks for another nice video. Could you recommend me car rental company that you think it is good and reasonable price for queenstown trip? I could pay rent online from its website @ Auckland, right? Thanks

[@PeterandYen]

Hello I would still say snap rental is one of the cheaper options in queenstown. But if I could do it again if going on a long trip I'd land in Christchurch and drive down. Yup you can book from their website.

[@akkarparkiamopas3401]

@@PeterandYen Thanks a lot Peter and Yen

[@FoodandFootprints]

Wow a lot pricier for the rental in Queenstown!

[@PeterandYen]

😥 yeah.....

[@rahul930]

Try Sixt next time for rental car.. their cars are really god and cheap for long period rental

[@PeterandYen]

Ooo thank you so much for the recommendation. Will def check them out next time. Only reason we went with snap is cause we had some credit with them.

We are waiting for the borders to lift so we can fly over to CHC and spend 2 weeks in South Island.

[@PeterandYen]

Hopefully you'll be able to enjoy your trip soon 🤞🍀 The South Island is such a beautiful place! Which cities/towns are you planning to visit? 🙂

I was in Glenorchy 45 years ago. I still remember when my local friend got petro at the “honesty garage”. Bought gas, & left the cash on the counter. Not a soul around.

[@PeterandYen]

Wow! It must've looked like a totally different place 😯 Still see a few honesty boxes here and there but definitely no honesty garages these days 😆

[@seashelify362]

@@PeterandYen I wish I had taken a picture of it.. I believe there was a note on the counter about leaving the cash. My friend had actually lived there as a child in the 50/60’s before the road was built and wasn’t impressed by it, but it obviously stuck with me. I traveled a lot over the years, was a long way from home at the time (Canada) & have never seen another honesty garage. There is a lot I don’t remember but that was one experience I do!

[@PeterandYen]

Haha it's a pretty kiwi thing and more common in the smaller towns for sure. Such a wholesome memory! 🥰❤️
