Creator's Key Takeaways

This is really been probably one of the best port destination cruises uh that I've ever done around New Zealand.

When we started out, of course, we came across from Sydney, so there were a few sea days, but then when we first arrived in New Zealand, it was really all about the fjords, right, and the sounds at the bottom of the South Island.

It's a beautiful country, one of the prettiest we've ever visited.

I would say move it eye up. It's a place you really don't want to miss.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Don't rush to the airport in Auckland; it's a beautiful harbor city to explore.
βœ“Consider a one-way itinerary to spend more time in New Zealand and visit the fjords.
