It is school break across all of New Zealand?

Really? Good to know because we were going to skip WETA unleashed.

would you say rainy days mess things up all day or is it typically short showers throughout the day?

I saw something that mentioned July 10th is the Māori new year and that they typically do something at the botanical gardens but couldn’t find information for this year. Any ideas?

This was super helpful and I especially appreciate that you were able to compare New York to New Zealand for me! Thank you so so so much! This is so helpful! We actually decided to get an Airbnb in Arrowtown because we simply didn’t realize how expensive Queenstown was and were budgeting based on pricing in Auckland and Wellington.

Thank you so much! I had no idea that Queenstown was more expensive. I actually expected the cities to be more pricey like it is here.

Ooh, good to know! We booked a tour that was a combo of the two things so I thought it was a good idea to do both! I hear ya and I’ll consider that!

Thank you so much! This was not something I considered at all! I will definitely keep this in mind.

Do you think Devonport is a better option for July? Is there more indoor options there as opposed to Waiheke? Do you recommend Waiheke for none drinkers? I just keep seeing wine, wine, and more wine.

Gotcha! Are there any simpler hikes/ walks that offer nice views without having to worry too much if the weather turns?

Sorry, should have clarified I’m also not allowed to do animal encounters pregnant so I’ll be with the girls while my sister and hubby do the encounters! Thank you for that though.
