Skyline Queenstown

Family trip, bring children with you. For children, the scenery on the top of the mountain is not impressive, but the skyline luge is really fun.

It is worth experiencing when you have time. The buffet category is quite rich. The extra charge for drinks is included in the package. The sheepdog and shearing wool performance are interesting. The scenery on both sides of the boat is very beautiful. There are resident singers on the boat. Time passes very fast ~

Larnach Castle

It is worth a visit to the castle. It feels different. The weather has different experiences. It is very good. The garden is average. But the place to eat inside is very good. The wood-burning stove is particularly comfortable. The price is also suitable for a very good place.

DUNEDIN is another day of activity. Downing is the second largest city on the South Island and the fourth largest city in New Zealand. In the middle and lower nineteenth century, the Scots gradually flourished after discovering gold mines nearby. It was once New Zealand's largest city and had a large number of Scottish-style buildings. ​

Wānaka

wanaka is a nice place that can travel with family . Kids and Parents will love that and the people there is so nice and friendly.

The scenic boardwalk winds along the south shore. There are some winding walks starting from the camping area on the lakeside, which is a great place to spend a wonderful holiday. Sailing, swimming, windsurfing and fishing are popular activities in summer. Great place.

Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony

Taking photos is not allowed in the conservation center, and the flash will affect the penguins returning to their nests. The little penguins are so cute that we bought penguin dolls after seeing them. The quality of tourists is not very good, mainly Asian tourists. They always break the rules of keeping quiet and not using mobile phones.

Whitestone City

The South Island of New Zealand, Omalu Whitestone Town, walks into the quiet Whitestone town, as if back to the most prosperous port city of Omalu in the 19th century, the buildings in the town are built with strong whitestone, which may be the name! A European style through the prosperous Victorian era, is a unique town with a combination of history and humanities!
