North or South Island? work or play?

North island. And Cook Islands for play.

If you have never visited the South Island, go back and do it - utterly stunning. Fly into Wellington, get on the inter island ferry, go down Marlborough Sound to Pictron, then train to Christchurch and another across to Greymouth. Then hire a Campervan and travel everywhere.

Here is my second trip to NZ. 7,000km and two plane trips. First trip I did the helicopter trip up to Franz Josef Glacier.

We once did the train from Auckland to Wellington , over the channel and then Picton to Christchurch, then the Transalpine to Greymouth, then a 4x4 to Queenstown etc.
The open carriage on the train made for a stunning journey. And of course all the South Island is incredible. Except Invercargill.

Brilliant. I have been twice before and been all over South Island. I swam with Hector’s Dolphins at Curio bay, down south. Just walked into the big surf from the beach and swam with them. Also want to a fantastic beer festival in Oamaru, on New Zealand's South Island, also known as the steampunk capital of the world. Got very drunk there and met a lovely fella who is one the last penny farthing cycle makers in the world. (He makes them for film sets). A really interesting guy, he persuaded me try a penny farthing with a very big hangover, amazingly I didn’t fall off. If I had my time again I would relocate to New Zealand.
