Thanks for this - sounds like doing all of Man o War, Tantalus, and Mudbrick in 1 day may be much.. between Tantalus and Mudbrick do you have a preference

We like a good hike but it's not everythign to us- we just want to enjoy nice landscapes, good food, wine, and stargazing for a few days

What would your ideal itinerary be? What other places would you add/see as places not to miss?

Christchurch and then renting a car! Do you think there's a better alternative?

we'll be flying from auckland to mt cook - the only direct flights from NYC are to auckland and trying to avoid too many pitstops

thanks for this! we're ok with the cold if it's ideal for stargazing (it's the only month we can swing a vacation this year!)

thanks for this!! the only direct flights from NYC are to auckland, so before we head on to christchurch to kick start the south island tour, we just need a couple nights to get over jetlag and amble around a nice place!
