This guide is for both Islands in New Zealand (the north and the south) for first time visitors who are taking their camper van throughout the islands with a few days in Auckland and Queenstown. It's a three week itinerary and includes the arrival and departure flight days (and has some suggestions for these days as well). It will go through (in detail!) every location we visited, the activities we did, the sites we camped up at, the restaurants we ate at (in between our camper van meals), what we learned about New Zealand and the camper van life whilst we were there, and other suggestions of what to do in the areas so you can alter your plans to fit what you want. Note that this itinerary includes two different camper van rental locations on each island, and flying between the two islands. But you could easily do the majority of this itinerary and just switch up a few days to drive between the two islands! This itinerary does have a decent amount of driving but its because we really wanted to PACK our itinerary to see as much of New Zealand and it's beautiful scenery whilst we were here. The main locations touched on are listed here (and we highly recommend all of them): -> Auckland (& Waiheke Island) -> West Coast North Island (Black Sand Beaches / Mt Taranaki) -> Tongariro Alpine Crossing -> Coromandel Peninsula -> Queenstown -> Milford Sound -> Wanaka (& Roys Peak) -> Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park -> Dunedin -> The Catlins If you're looking for a detailed guide that outlines your plan for each and every day, look no further!

The Ultimate Summer Adventure! Explore the gems of both North and South Islands in this adventure-filled itinerary. In the North, we'll explore Auckland, Waitomo, and Rotorua. From there, we'll fly to South Island and roadtrip along the coast hitting Queenstown, Christchurch, and everything in between. YES- that's right. All in 18 days! What's included? - Budget friendly hotel accommodations - The best places to eat & drink - Where to go and what to see - Links to must-do excursions - A digital map of all locations - Travel with a mobile guide you can open on-the-go - Leave the planning to me and have a stress-free, unforgettable experience!

Milford Sound, known as the unofficial 8th Wonder of the World, is one of my favourite places in New Zealand and one of the countries most stunning natural attractions. Located in the heart of Fiordland National Park, Milford Sound is home to rugged landscapes, mountain peaks, fiords, waterfalls, and some of the best hiking tracks in the world. I’m a big, max-out-your-24-hours kind of traveler, so it’s not often I leave a place feeling as though my time there is unfinished. But I remember driving away from Fiordland, unable to take my eyes away from the tops of her mountains, feeling lucky to live in New Zealand and knowing I’d be back for more. However, most people only get the chance to visit Milford Sound once in their lifetime. So, I want to help you make the most of it! I am a lover of hiking and this guide reflects it! You'll find two walks included that take 3 hours each. If you don't enjoy the outdoors, that's okay too! Feel free to omit them and choose another activity from my list at the end. This itinerary is designed to be done in a campervan and does include driving. I HIGHLY recommend travelling New Zealand by campervan to stay in some of the most incredible places. BUT I'll also give you hotel recommendations too, just in case you're not into van-life. In this guide, you'll find: • An overview of Milford Sound • Typical costs and how much I spent on my trip • The best road trip stops on your drive from Queenstown • Top rated accomodation and my favourite campsites • Custom interactive maps full of all the important locations like campsites, supermarkets, airports and viewpoints on top of your full itinerary • Local tips and inspiration, must-visit spots, hiking tracks, bucket list activities and once-in-a-lifetime experiences.  • Much, much more. This guide is your one-stop shop for everything you need to plan the ultimate New Zealand adventure! You can follow this guide exactly for an amazing itinerary or combine it with your own research to create the trip of your dreams. Please tag me in the photos and videos you take!
