#Accommodation Manapouri

[candm-ontour-2020]

That was it. 40 minutes later we were back in Manapouri with fantastic memories of the last 24 hours. We felt extremely privileged to have done the trip, and very lucky to have chosen that particular one. We’d highly recommend it.

We drove back to Te Anau and had a bite of lunch. We checked in to our accommodation. It was Kaiko Cottages. An very small and select motel run by a Scottish born Kiwi named Kevin and his Japanese wife. Martin booked it as he thought that it’d be something different, including the Japanese bento box breakfast.

When we got there we discovered that breakfast was not included and hasn’t been for 8 years, but it was still on his website and he couldn’t get it off, apparently. We negotiated a discount. The room was nice enough but Kevin was a bit strange.

We walked back into town for the happy hours and for one place that had live entertainment.

Afterwards we went back to our room and had lobster salad for our dinner. 👍🏻😃

The 10 best hotels near: Hobbiton Movie Set, in Matamata, New Zealand

Often you can meet Bottlenose Dolphins. Numerous seals can be seen on isolated rock formations. On the way along Lake Manapouri you should take a look up to the high peaks on your right, near Freeman Burn. Up there, in the Alpine peaks, are the Norwest Lakes, locations that were used when the companions left Bruche Valley to the south. Today you will take part in a guided day trip to the many locations in and around Wellington.

"Mordor, Gandalf - is that left or right?" - the most beautiful Lord of the Rings filming locations in New Zealand

Since we are early enough, we also get a place. But less than ten minutes after our arrival it is already full. While I take a little afternoon nap, Armin marches to the nearby "Pak n Safe" and gets bread and milk for tomorrow's breakfast. But when he comes back we decide to drive on. The landscape of New Zealand is on a relatively small area - two islands in the southern hemisphere - as diverse as hardly anywhere else on earth. The landscape seems to be virgin, and this purity attracts people.

Together with the "Wellington Rover" you will set off in a small group to follow the tracks of the hobbits, dwarves, elves and humans. In the morning you will be picked up at your accommodation and start the day exploring the urban locations around Mount Victoria.

The outside scenes of the Anduin Grassland and the Bleak Forest were created south of Queenstown. River scenes were shot at both the Aratiatia Rapids on the Waikato River and the Pelorus River in the Marlborough district.

With the last Hobbit film the journey to Middle-earth is probably over for the time being. If and when there will be a film adaptation of Tolkien's Middle-earth work "The Silmarillion" is still in the stars. "You can't just walk to Mordor," Boromir noted in the first part of the trilogy. No wonder, after all, the companions found themselves facing a dead landscape full of danger.

New Zealand Travel

7 days safari adventure from/to Maun

Most of us were taken to the airport the next morning and started the return flight, too bad we would have liked to stay a little longer. Past Huka Falls to a geothermal park in TeWhakarewarewatangaoteopetauaawahiao where we saw steaming springs, bubbling mud holes and our first living kiwi bird.

Health

I have travelled New Zealand twice in detail and spent a total of 14 months there. In most of the accommodations you can expect a fantastic view of the mountains or the region. The Terrace Restaurant impresses with a breathtaking view of Mount Tongariro and Mount Ngauruhoe.

In addition to the impressive experience of the Mask Festival, you will see theatres of war, original markets, friendly villages, islands and the sea and hot springs of volcanic origin.

Lake Manapouri, Lake Te Anau and the small Mirror Lakes, which get their name from the reflecting surface.

>>Leider there are no reviews available for Travel New Zealand.us the vacation begins already at the airport - accordingly carefully we select our airline partners, because security is our top priority.{

We drive along the enormous Kauri Trees, the national trees of New Zealand.from Transdev Auckland serve the city and suburban traffic, ferries connect the city centre, the north shore and the east and call at the islands around Auckland.

...we wanted to give you a big hand and say thank you. It was a very successful and well planned trip. You could say, from beginning to end, thumbs up. With the Maori it is known as "MotuKokako", until now only few people have ever dared to climb this densely overgrown rocky peak. My journey leads me further to Northland. As the name already suggests, Northland stretches from the outermost tip of the North Island downwards and includes the Bay of Islands, the Kauri Coast and Whangarei. Yet Auckland is much more than just a big city, as the region offers a lot of activities and sights.

3 Reasons for accommodation Milford Sound Overnight Cruise - Fiordland Discovery

No wonder, after all the fjord is even called the eighth wonder of the world. On the internet there are countless top ratings in which the Milford Sound is described as "breathtaking", "spectacular" or as "an absolute must in New Zealand". This trip has expedition character, as the course of the tour is very weather-dependent.

The traffic early in the morning was very low.

Since we wanted to stay flexible concerning the weather, we bought the ticket only two days in advance (middle of March).

Then it goes downhill until you reach the parking lot at Kaiuma Bay, where you will be picked up again by your tour guide who moved the car.

>Many people book a bus tour from Te Anau to Milford Sound, including a boat tour.>Driving through clouds by car is something I never dreamed of.>/ul> It may well be that this is different with a larger provider, but we would not risk it. The majority of the coaches leave Te Anau between 8.00 and 10.00 am. It is definitely worthwhile to plan your own journey accordingly and avoid these traffic rush hours. In good weather, the hiker will have an unforgettable view when the highest mountains of New Zealand are reflected in the lake. Alternatively, you can take a helicopter flight over the glacier this morning (optional). We continue along the west coast via Bruce Bay to Knights Point - from where you have an impressive view of the wild west coast. At Ship Creek there is time to explore the Kahikatea Swamp Forest and the beach of a dune lake before you reach Haast Pass.

and South Seas

After the exploration tour you will travel by bus over the Wilmot Pass and by ferry across Lake Manapouri before returning to Te Anau by bus. The Milford Road is narrow and winding. Since we have already crossed numerous pass roads in Switzerland, such road conditions are nothing unusual for us. So the route was easy for us to master with good weather and little traffic.

From Manapouri: Boat tour in the wild fjord Doubtful Sound

You have reached the high mountain region of New Zealand. Here the glaciers reach down to sea level - a phenomenon that can only be observed in South America and Iceland. I just happened to land on your blog by chance. We - travelling without children - were in New Zealand a few years ago and asked ourselves the same question. Since we prefer to travel off the beaten track - and have enough time - we spontaneously decided to go for the Doubtful Sound.

New Zealand - Milford Sound

A very clear advantage of the bus tour is that everyone can sit back and enjoy the views of this great landscape. Some coaches are even equipped with a glazed roof, which promises even better views. The Milford Track is one of the nine Great Walks in New Zealand and leads in 4 days through the Fjordland National Park.

The Aucklanders' attitude to life is reflected in the lively scenery of the Viaduct Basin with its bars and cafés. In the immediate vicinity you can also admire the majestic sailing boats in the world's largest marina. Accommodation in a hotel in Auckland just a few minutes walk from the centre and harbour. No frills, like breakfast or lunch and everything else that is offered.

By your registration you agree to receive promotional emails.

The forest is absolutely fantastic, there is a lot to discover for the children and the lake is also beautiful.

Trekking on North and South Island

Read more about campervan hire New Zealand here. We had expected to see a lot of people, but the fact that there were so many surprised us nevertheless. But if one considers that the wonderful arrival and the fascinating animal world belong to the "Milford experience", it makes our day trip to something very special. For the first time, we were stuck in a traffic jam in front of the Homer Tunnel. But this could not be avoided, as we had to wait until the roadway was opened. In the dining room there is a rich breakfast buffet with hot and cold dishes from half past six, a typical New Zealand breakfast. As at seven o'clock the anchor is lifted and the trip to Tasman Sea is supposed to start, we want to finish our breakfast before. But we are not quite finished when the engines are started. Then we drive through the tunnel again and come back to the beautiful Gertrude Valley. Again and again we have to stop and take pictures.

"Directly at the Milford Sound: Top accommodation without luxury" Milford Sound Lodge

For me the two days we spent in the Fjordland National Park will definitely be unforgettable. The tour through Fjordland National Park to Milford Sound including the cruise is rightly the biggest tourist attraction in New Zealand. Altogether we were on the road between Manapouri and Milford Sound and back in Te Anau for almost a week. We took our time and did a day hike to the Key Summit. Milford Sound enchants and impresses with its dramatic expanse. Already the journey to the summit is an unforgettable experience. When travelling I feel like a different person, because the greatest thing for me is to discover new interesting places and to get to know foreign cultures. I would like to share my experiences, tips and thoughts with you.

The Best of Milford Sound

From Te Anau you drive about 2 hours on a beautiful road with several view points and hiking trails to Milford Sound. Depending on the traffic and the number of stops it can also be 2.5 - 3 hours. Those who then plan an excursion at the Milford Sound have to plan the time for the return trip to Te Anau. Therefore, the night at the Milford Sound is simply recommendable. To drive with a boat through the Milford Sound is quite rightly on every top list of the travel guides.

26 days trekking and adventure trip on North and South Island

Following a connecting canal, one reaches the equally picturesque Lake Tekapo.

In some places it becomes up to 420 meters deep.

Overnight in a hotel in Auckland just a few minutes walk from the city centre and harbour.

We guarantee that you can book all of our more than 200,000 experiences with us at the best price. Spend the morning with a leisurely drive back through Milford Sound to your starting point. The rooms are bright and comfortably furnished. That depends on how much you want to drive yourself. I can only take pictures by leaning safely against the railing. Since there is coffee and cake in the dining room meanwhile, I take the chance and sit down inside for a short break.

Yes, I’m still alive and still in NZ!

Hello hello, this is a very belated blog post. I had two weeks of very limited wifi, and have been all kinds of busy over the last three weeks. I am currently writing from Dunedin, which will be home for the next little while, on the southeast coast of the South Island. 

Since I last wrote, I had two exciting, non-NZ-related pieces of news. I have been accepted to both Vanderbilt and Stanford for my Master’s in Elementary Education! I’ll be making my choice (Penn is on the list too, just waiting to hear back) in the next few weeks, but regardless, I’ll be starting a Master’s program in June! Nice to have something set up for when I return at the end of May. 

I left Danielle and Eliza after a very fun few days in Queenstown, filled with dancing, eating, kayaking, hiking, and adventuring with our new Dutch friend Tom. Also spent a few nights gaining bits of wisdom from Mama Mo, a 52 year old Dutch woman who had never traveled far from home, but decided she was gonna pursue a whim and spend three months traveling solo in New Zealand. She was happy to be heading home to her husband and daughter, but was all for pursuing your dreams at any age.

When I was back solo, I headed down to the southernmost point of NZ. It’s in a beautiful area called the Catlins, which has loads of little spots to stop at on your drive through the remote southeast coast of the country. Waterfalls, dolphins, petrified forests, oh my! I spent two nights in Dunedin after some very windy, rainy camping in the Catlins, at a hostel called Hogwartz.

Next stop was heading back towards the west coast for my first WWOOFing experience! I stayed at Nancy’s place outside of Wanaka, a beautiful little lake town. She has a gorgeous piece of property, 360 panoramas, and an amazing night sky. Her land is really rocky, so pretty tricky to grow on, but she’s doing her best. I stayed with her and her son James, who was visiting from England. The arrangement of WOOFING is 4-5 hours work per day in exchange for food and accommodation. My work varied greatly, from filling in rabbit holes, to making beds for the airbnb room she runs, to snagging horse poo for manure from the neighbor’s horses. Nancy was just about the quirkiest woman I’ve met, and while a little hard to keep up with, she was incredibly kind and welcoming, and shared so many bits and pieces of her life and NZ culture. James helped me get a grasp on cricket as we watched NZ beat India in a three game run. All in all, it was a great place to stay, get some hard work in, and do a form of cultural exchange in a beautiful place. 

I spent one night downtown in Wanaka, hanging out with a friend from Germany I met in Dunedin. It’s nice to see people more than once, since so often my friendships on this trip have been just for a day or a night, and then we all go our separate ways. After spending some time with Lukas, I drove down to Manapouri, which is right on the edge of Fiordland. I had a lovely week there, catching up with Maryam, my old roommate and a dear friend who I’ve been too far from for too long! We aren’t great at keeping in touch long distance, but this was a nice reminder that we’ve got the base of friendship that holds out strong regardless of time in between. We watched movies, took walks by the lake, and just chatted for ages. I went on some lovely hikes while she was working, including one where I stopped and read for an hour on some moss, just surrounded by the sounds of all the birds, sun shining down on me. 

I’ve been in Dunedin since, and will be here for around a month, possibly longer if it’s feeling right! I was feeling ready to settle in for a bit, and hopefully work (going to a trial shift at a restaurant tonight, fingers crossed!). The rental market in Wellington, where I was originally planning to go, is pretty much impossible to break into (rooms get listed and are gone within the hour). Dunedin was tricky as well, especially for the amount of time I’m looking for, but I’ve found an option for long term at the Hogwartz hostel where I stayed before. I do housekeeping work for two hours a day (mostly vacuuming so far) in exchange for a free bed in a dorm with 4 other longterm girls. The beds are great (not bunks!!) and the people are nice, and it’s a great money saver!

Before this, I was crashing in the living room of the flat of an old friend from high school youth group. She is studying abroad at Dunedin’s big university, the university of Otago, so I got a taste of college life again. I went to my first rugby game, a very big event at this big school, and watched the Highlanders win! I turned 23 and had a fun day with the girls from Gabrielle’s flat. Slowly but surely  I’m building a little community here in Dunedin (including a girl from Boston who I plan to hang with when I get back!). I get to walk by beautiful old churches every day, and enjoy a vibrant city, and will hopefully be reaping the exercise benefits of the neverending hills! Looking forward to a bit of stability after a month and a half of movement.

WEEK EIGHTEEN (Mar 2 - Mar 8)

QUEENSTOWN, NZ // FIORDLAND, NZ

In preparation for our New Zealand trip, we spent Thursday afternoon packing our bags for the flight to Queenstown the next morning. We had plans later that evening to meet up with Andy and Elisa at "Rainbow Hotel" to celebrate Andy's birthday on the back patio with food and drinks. Located in a Fitzroy alleyway for over 140 years, "Rainbow Hotel" is one of Melbourne's oldest pubs and was established in the years following the Victorian Gold Rush. After a few hours had gone by, we went back home to catch some Zzz's since we had to be up early to catch our flight.

The three hour flight into Queenstown took us over striking mountain landscapes, vibrant aqua blue rivers, and shimmering lakes during our descent. After making it through customs, we picked up our compact rental car and then drove the fifteen minutes to our AirBnb in Shotover Country. Situated on a hillside, our windows looked across a valley towards several mountains. Once we had settled in, we drove to the town center and explored around the shops and restaurants, eventually making our way to the shore of Lake Wakatipu. Queenstown is bordered by The Remarkables mountain range and possesses a quaint alpine-town feel to it. We had dinner at "Brazz Steakhouse & Bar" before heading back to the room to shower and drink hot tea to keep warm. Toward nightfall, the wind began to howl and cleared the clouds for a grand view of the MIlky Way.

After a quick breakfast of cereal and toast provided in-room by our host, we drove to the base of Ben Lomond Mountain to ride the Skyline Gondola up to Bob's Peak. The gondola ride is the steepest one in the Southern Hemisphere, and takes riders 450 meters above Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu! Although the day was slightly overcast, the views were still overwhelmingly beautiful when we reached the top. We paid for three rides down the scenic luge track, hopped into our gravity propelled sleds, and raced to the finish line. At the end of our third ride down the track, we regretted not buying more since it was such a blast. For lunch we dined buffet-style at the "Stratosfare Restaurant and Bar," with unreal views of Lake Wakatipu, the Remarkables, and Queenstown through the floor-to-ceiling windows. We caught the gondola back down the mountain, and then walked across the street to visit the Kiwi Birdlife Park. The five acre conservation park houses many native and endangered New Zealand bird species such as kea (the world's only alpine parrot), morepark (an NZ owl), and kiwi. Since kiwi are nocturnal and live in ground burrows, we figured a visit to the conservation park would be our only chance to see one in person. We were fortunate to see two during the scheduled kiwi feeding and informative talk! They are a unique, flightless bird found only in New Zealand and have become a symbol ubiquitous with the country-- appearing on money, art, government seals, merchandise, etc. Due to the fact that the kiwi is endemic to the country, the name is commonly used as a term to describe New Zealanders as well. After driving back to Shotover Country, we watched the sun set over the mountains from our room and cozied up for the night.

We got ready the next morning for a short hike on the Fernhill loop on Ben Lomond Mtn. After the hike, we hopped in the car and took an hour drive north along the shore of Lake Wakatipu to the small town of Glenorchy. The scenic road to Glenorchy is riddled with vista points and places of interest. We stopped to skip stones and eat sandwiches on the pebbly beach at Twelve Mile Delta. Continuing down the road, we passed flocks of sheep grazing alongside turquoise waters and backdropped by snowy capped mountain peaks. Once arriving in Glenorchy (Population: 363), we made our way to the small wharf to take photos, and then enjoyed a pint at the "Glenorchy Hotel" before turning around and heading back to Queenstown. We pinched pennies by having dinner at "The London" in Queenstown for 2-for-1 pizzas, then headed home to rest up for an early check-out the next morning.

Before leaving Queenstown, we stocked up on groceries and filled up the car's tank for our drive to Manapouri. The spectacular two and a half hour drive down Hwy 6 first led us along the southern shore of Lake Wakatipu before breaking off into vast farmland dotted with sheep, cows, deer, and llamas. We finally checked into our small cabin accommodation at Freestone. Upon recommendation from our host, we embarked on a three hour hike through Fiordland National Park on the Kepler Track from Rainbow Reach to Shallow Bay. After crossing a hanging suspension bridge over the emerald Waiau River, we found ourselves hiking in a damp Beech forest carpeted in moss of every imaginable hue of green. In places it grew so thick over rocks and stumps, it created what we dubbed "fairy castles". Prehistoric ferns stretched out along the forest floor as far as the eye could see. The forest finally gave way to the rocky beach at Shallow Bay on Lake Manapouri, giving us our first glimpse of Fiordland's dramatic green mountainsides plunging into the dark waters. We hiked back to the car, and drove back to Freestone to make dinner. We drank wine on the front porch while listening to music and watched fantail birds perform aerial acrobatics while they captured insects. To keep warm, we started a wood fire in our cabin's cast-iron furnace and fell asleep to projections of orange flames dancing on the walls and ceiling.

We were up before the sun since our reservations to cruise Doubtful Sound (a UNESCO World Heritage site) required us to be dockside at 7:40am to board the first vessel on Lake Manapouri. As we departed Pearl Harbour, we watched a pink sunrise over majestic green mountains and reflections of clouds in the glassy lake. The 45 minute boat ride took us across the water to Manapouri Power Station where we hopped on a large tour bus for a 20km ride through a steep mountain pass. We passed dozens of waterfalls and towering granite mountains covered in trees, before making it to the Deep Cove wharf on Doubtful Sound. We immediately boarded the 32 meter Patea Explorer cruise ship, and over the next several hours proceeded to explore the main Doubtful Sound waterway and a few of its smaller "arms." Eventually, the ship made its way out to the mouth of the sound, into the choppy Tasman Sea, where we spied New Zealand fur seals, seagulls, and an albatross. At one point during the tour, the skipper brought the ship within two meters of a vertical cliff-face, and we all stared straight up the granite wall. While there is no soil on the mountains or cliffs surrounding Doubtful, the trees cling to the sheer rock by interlocking their roots together and relying on moss and lichen for water and nutrients. Our favorite part of the tour was "the Sound of Silence," in which the ship's engines were shut down completely as we gently floated on a calm inlet. The guides asked all passengers to remain quiet for a few moments, and amongst the peaceful silence, we heard the calls of seabirds and the sound of small waves crashing up against rocks as the sun shimmered on the water. During the whole tour, the guides constantly remarked on how lucky we were with the clear weather, as Fiordland is known to be one of the wettest places on the planet, raining every two out of three days! The return trip to Pearl Harbour took an hour and a half, and we took a nice afternoon nap upon our arrival to the cabin. We finished off the evening with dinner and another pleasant indoor fire before bed.

Our hosts at Freestone provided us with a breakfast basket, which we cooked up on the morning of our departure to Aoraki / Mount Cook. On our way up north, we stopped at the lakeside town of Te Anau to peruse several souvenir shops before making the five hour journey to the Mt. Cook Lodge. The road took us back through Queenstown, and we made our way through the Central Otago region past roaring turquoise rivers, vineyards, golden foothills, rocky mountains, fertile farmland (sheep! sheep! sheep!), and glacial lakes. We checked into our four-person hostel room (with bunk beds) at the lodge, and then took a short stroll along the Bowen's Bush Trail, an easy forested walking trail with information placards about various native birdlife present in the area. Aoraki Mount Cook Village is a tiny settlement, with only three lodges and two restaurants in the entire area. We had dinner at "The Chamois", the restaurant/pub situated on the lodge's second story, before retiring for the night.
