29 Dec 2011 - 04 Jan 2012 \ This trip was amazing. We joined in on the grand adventure tour who had just finished the north island, so we thought everyone would be pretty bummed to have new people on the bus. BUT everyone in our tour was amazing!! Had the trip of a life time, 7 days just wasn't enough. New Zealand South Island scenery can not be missed, its so unbelievable. I took advantage of pretty much all the optional's such as skyline dinner looking over queenstown and the speights alehouse in dunedin. The range of activities that were available is phenominal, i went skydiving, bungy jumping off the kawaura bridge, canyon swinging over the shotover river and definitly can't forget luging overlooking queenstown. Accommodation is great, especially in queenstown - on top of a hill looking out over the lake, perfect!! that is all i can say. Our tour manager was fantastic and can't forget our amazing bus driver.I would definitely recommend this tour. However if you have a budget on spending money for optional activities, double it, cause you'll get talked into doing activities you never dreamed of doing (i.e skidiving) and you wont regret it.!!! I would do this tour over again in a heart beat!!!
