I’ve tried to list the whole tour on my Dopplr account, but it doesn’t recognise some of the places.
Rotarua is ace, but it stinks! The thermal spa pools are great though, and strangely they don’t smell so bad when you’re right next to them!There’s an amazing restaurant there too, I think it was called Lone Star, where the portions are totally massive! And very nice, too.See if you can go on the NZ41 Americas Cup Yacht in Auckland if you haven’t done it before, I really enjoyed it, it’s huge!
