New Zealand Road Trip: Ep 2 - Backpacking the South Island

I return to New Zealand for a 7 week road trip around both the North and South Island in this 2 part documentary series.

Episode 2 I travel to the South Island by myself, meeting up with a couple of friends along the way.

Beginning in Nelson to explore the Abel Tasman National Park, I then head south to Franz Josef for a helicopter ride and a sky dive over the glacier.

In Wanaka, I tackle Roys Peak before moving on to Queenstown, to hike Ben Lommond, try out the Canyon Swing, the Canyon Fox Swing, Shotover Jet Boating plus exploring Glenorchy and Paradise.

There's Lord of the Rings locations galore on the way to Doubtful Sound. Following this I catch up with my old Kiwi Experience bus driver in Dunedin.

Finally I have one last trip up into the mountains to see Aoraki, Mt Cook, plus Mt Sunday otherwise known as Edoras.
