My family and I had spent around 20 days in Kiwi Land travelling to the different parts by campervan. Most of the time spent was in the south island and we covered almost all the significant destinations (except Invercargill). Museums, lakes, blowholes, sounds and best of all, glaciers with alot of travelling in between pretty round up south island. We did the famous SHOTOVER JET ride by the way, and I think everyone should give it a try. They reallly mean what they say, about the adrenaline spike.
North Island was not too bad, considering that we only spent a week. The highlights there were the 40 degree thermal pools, black water rafting (I'd rather call it tubing because there is NO raft, only a rubber tube), glowworms ( more of the glowing secretions of the maggot), and 90 mile beach( it is only around 60 miles actually. We also paid a visit to both my mom and joel's friends place in Auckland during the last few days of our trip.
Overall, New Zealand is a wonderful place to have a holiday. My suggestion would be to have one that is about 2 weeks; we were kind of tired of the constant travelling around the 16th day.
