I’ve booked our internal flight in New Zealand. We’re flying from Dunedin all the way to Rotorua. So that means we are going to be seeing the far south of the country and the far north and missing out the whole of the middle. In the south we hope to see Queenstown, Wanaka, Milford Sound and Dunedin. In the north we are going to see Rotorua and then head to Auckland via the Coromandel peninsula. We knew we wouldn’t be able to see it all in the 13 days we have available, so this seems the best way to maximize the sightseeing and minimize the travelling time.
We’re flying Air New Zealand. If you’re looking for internal flights I recommend using Expedia.co.nz, as they can get the cheap domestic flight offers on Air New Zealand that are not available outside the country.

Hi Chris,
We did a similar tour of the south island. Shame you won’t get to sample the west coast.
The coast to the south east of Dunedin has some nice beaches with seals, and I thought Wanaka was great They speak with a Kiwi/Scottish accent down there!
Milford sound is quite out of the way. Going to do any of the long distance paths?
Hi John,
We’ve only got 13 nights in NZ, so we’re not going to try to do too much. Not sure the girls would be interested in a long distance “tramp” anyway. Thanks for dropping by!
Chris
