Well it was our last day in Queenstown and having stood and watched the jet boats perform, the decision was made to go for a ride. More than anything else, I wanted to check out the scenery. I am not an adrenilan junky and didn't know how I would cope the spins and the close shaves. The driver pre w...

I spent a lovely couple of hours wandering around the grounds of this little oasis in the middle of the larger oasis that is Queenstown. Due to my tight schedule, I didn’t have as much time as I would have liked to see all there is to see here. These lush gardens deserve a good few hours of your t...

I think about $100 for a jump. After doing the nevis on the south island i thought this one would be boring. I did the water touch though where they dunked me in up to my waste. It was so cool and definitely made it worth it. Made me kind of nervous when we had to wait for a few boats to pass before...
