Westport - not much to write about!
This was a quick stop over arriving late in the afternoon and leaving early the next day! The highlight of Westport was an evening bar crawl which involved being tied to strangers after names were pulled out of a hat! We could only be untied after completing one drink in four bars.

Lakes, IceCream, Blow Holes and Fancy Dress
We were up early on the bus and had fantastic weather so had a break at Lake Rotoiti. A stunning lake surrounded by snow-capped mountains, one of the most beautiful spots in the world! Its a rugged mountainous area known for its broad range of native trees and birds. Here we took a hike through the forest around the lake to take in the scenery …
King crab fishing in NZ

Because of the smaller group, our bus driver has decided to skip over a small town tomorrow that we would normally have to spend a night in. This move liberates a much needed free day for us to spend in any place we choose. Much to Addie's ...

“ A cool hostel ”
Reviewed Nov 20, 2012
This hostel had a nice big kitchen and outside communal rooms. Decor a bit dated and showers require you to press button outside the showers for hot water. But it's good for a one night stop!
