Action in the adrenaline capital

A day tour to and in Queenstown.

Day 29 Departure from Mavora Lakes - It's hard for us to leave this wonderful place. We stopped briefly at the horses and said hello again, as Mattis wished. Otherwise, it was...

Puh! We haven't moved very far in the last two weeks, but we've seen a lot. Speaking of moving - driving, in our case - we want to remind you again that you see SHEEP...

A city for a queen like me! ;)

You guessed it: What was good about the stupid rain clouds were the snow-covered mountain peaks afterwards!!! And that in the middle of summer! We consider ourselves lucky...

After another too short night, we hear the mountains calling today. Carsten has chosen the Ben Lomond Track. 1400 meters of altitude to the summit. My enthusiasm was limited....

Even before our stay, Lisa had raved about Queenstown, as she had already visited and fallen in love with the town during her previous trip to New Zealand. Queenstown is a truly...

Oh the night was wonderful. The bed was a dream. Unfortunately, the breakfast time is so inconvenient that you can't even sleep in. 7:30 to 8:30 am. I know it's a great time for...

Our Rental Car On Thursday morning, we set off early. We had ordered a Jucy rental car at the airport for eight o'clock. We were both looking forward to a great trip and...

After almost three weeks in New Zealand, we had actually reached the southernmost point of our trip: Queenstown.

The action metropolis in the heart of New Zealand.

Since we still haven't received a photo, we're now increasing the difficulty level for Ms. O. We spent the night before Queenstown in Oamaru. ;-) Please add accordingly! We have...

After a night (and a short phone call home) I was slowly able to calm down. The first impression doesn't say much and after a bad start, things can only get better. I decided to...

When the traveler thinks of 'Queenstown' in New Zealand, the words tourism, adrenaline, and Fergburger might come to mind. After traveling for almost four months, we took a...

Fortunately, we still find a spot at a campsite after being turned away at two others. The festive New Year's Eve dinner (potato goulash with bread roll) unfortunately had to be...

After there had been a lot of activity in the previous days, we allowed ourselves a quiet day on Saturday. In addition, the weather was relatively bad. We strolled around the...

After managing to trap my finger in the car door at Milford Sound (...I'll spare you the pictures....) we set off for Queenstown. So Paddy was spared the daily discussion of who...

On the way to Milford Sound, where we had booked a boat tour, we passed the sweet town with a beautiful view of Te Anau. We spent a whole day there wandering around the town...
