*SUPER EXCITING NEWS!* Want to come and travel in New Zealand with us? Small trip, epic locations and the best company 😂 We'll share more details in a video soon, but for now, let us know that you're keen by filling this out docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScm4ZzF1luOZe_qu5w4QVS22LLh0WlKHQY8ztyCkwCHQKbFag/viewform
We're incredibly lucky! Just to keep things real though - we did move from level 1 to level 2 during this trip and still had to wear masks on public transport so it's not all perfect BUT we do appreciate how lucky we are in comparison to a lot of other countries around the world ❣️ Roll on travel freedom alright!!
I kept checking for this yesterday but instead it was a lovely Monday morning treat ( here in UK). I was wondering if you’d ever consider doing an episode that fills in your back story, where you grew up, where your families came from, how you met? I can’t be the only nosy one here...?
Sorry to confuse you, but glad you got a little monday morning treat! We have done a few Q&As where we share more about our backgrounds but it's always good to know what people specifically want to see so we will add this to our list. Thank you!
Great episode. My husband and I are older. 3 years ago when I was 55 he was 60 we went to london. Stayed about 2 miles from the natural history museum. When we walked down there we only took so much cash with us to buy stuff, which was NOT enough for my husband who loves to spoil our grandkids, so we walked back to the airbnb got more money then walked back to the museum staying another 3 hours. We walked 22 thousand steps that day. It almost killed us both.
Absolutely eating up every video on New Zealand as I’m planning a trip to go there myself!😍 You guys have the most exquisite energy that is delightful to watch! Thank you so much for bringing us all along on your journeys! One question if I may, Stacey what’s the brand of your hiking boot? I am definitely in the market to get some myself! Thank you both so much for all of your wonderful hard work to show your travels!🙌🏻 These videos have made it so helpful for research/preparation purposes.🙏🏻 thank you again!❤
I’m calling it. Years from now Dane is going to buy a pair of binoculars and take up bird watching as a hobby - which is perfect since Stacey is a bird whisperer :)
Right you got me! We too had thundering waves in Blackpool... Gale force winds and the foam from the top of the waves blowing past our front window like soap suds. Lol. What a beautiful place and it seems so well organised but I guess that is New Zealand, Lovin' your work as ever!
This tour in particular is run so well, all the hard work and planning was done for us so we could just focus on the hike itself without carrying big packs or wondering if we were going the right way! Aw thank you, we really appreciate the love!
This walk is already stunning! The little black fantail! I go so mad over little birds whenever I see them here, because they’re so cute and small, and the little fantail is no different! 😂❤️
Hi Daneger & Stacey! Loving these vlogs atm! Im actually a local of Motueka/Tasman, I live in Marahau and work in Kaiteriteri during my summers, I'm a receptionist at the campground where you stayed on your last nz trip! (I'm currently studying in Nelson during the year) but wanted to comment that I seriously take my home place for granted from watching how you are in awe of the abel tasman :)
We LOVE comments like this from locals!! Wish we would've had the chance to say hey on our last trip - maybe on our next one! It's all too common isn't it! Honestly, while we were away travelling full-time we took the whole country for granted.... Glad our videos reminded you of how incredible Abel Tasman is 😁 Thank you for taking the time to let us know that!
Awesome vlog guys!!! Love Abel Tasman!! 😍🥰😎✌️🇳🇿💖 Great trip for everyone plus AMAZING & STUNNING VIEWS!!! SO AWWED BY THE BEAUTY OF A.T 😍🥰 Stunning beaches & coastlines. Will do those things soon. Love NZ 🇳🇿🥰💖
Wow, stunning! Those beaches in Abel Tasmin are so , so gorgeous looking- especially where you had lunch 💗 That would have been me happy and wanted to stay there swimming for the afternoon! Definitely more than normal steps for the day you guys! Your tour looks so great that you can do your own thing a bit a too and not have to stay too close together with everyone else to enjoy the beauty of the place but with the safety of a tour . 👍 Cool
Another cool video of beautiful NZ. Our favorite RU-vid couple are hiking Abel Tasman National Park.💑 Wow what a fun video! Thanks again for all the great videos of NZ! 🧔
Definitely hit like before I'd watched it to the end. Have been waiting for you guys to release this video 😍 I love a good hike, but only ever do day hikes because the idea of having to carry tents, food and clothing doesn't appeal as it just slows you down. So having the bags transferred is fab. The boulders and water at Cleopatra's pool was all kinds of beautiful and I loved that beach at lunch too! 🏝️
Aww you're the best, thank you! We appreciate every view, like and comment you leave more than you know. You'll see later in the series there's another track we do through the Queen Charlotte Sound where they offer a similar transfer service. Honestly, we had no idea this was even a thing so we were stoked to find out how common it is in that part of the country at least. Part 2 just went up last night, enjoy! 😁
Amazing video as usual guys! That beach at the end of your hike looked absolutely insane! How beautiful to wake up too 😍 can’t wait for your next video ✌🏻
Hi from Nelson! Great to see you exploring our part of the country! Learnt something new about the black fantail and just saw one here on our porch today ❤️ Look forward to your next video 👍🏻
@@DanegerAndStacey watching your latest vid on walking Abel Tasman, am embarrassed to say I haven’t done it yet & have lived here for 19 years. On my list...👍🏻❤️
It's a lovely walk and so nice that your got the opportunity to do it whilst it was so quiet. I've done that bit myself, but going the other direction. I hope you treated yourselves to a burger from The Fat Tui when you got back 🍔
We hear that the opposite direction is more popular, would be interesting to do it that way and see how it feels. So lucky to have the beaches almost completely to ourselves! OH NOOOO what's the Fat Tui?! We missed out!
Such a stunning place filled with all sorts of friendly locals. The Weka are so cute! (unless they're trying to steal your lunch, then they're not so cute haha)
So much hiking! Love it, lots of wonderful views too. Btw ,how are Danger's NEW boots working out? And what a great way to end a long day on the trail good food and beer! Looking forward to the next one! Safe travels, cheers!
Well you know, I hate to say 'I told ya so' but I did have an 'I told ya so' moment when Dane admitted how much he loved his boots after day 😂 They've honestly been great, well worth the investment! Especially since we plan on doing a lot more hiking in the future.
Loving season 2 so far! What a beautiful place. That natural water slide looked fun but I agree with Stace, probably wouldn't do it. Did you guys see more wildlife?
That waterslide was an instant no from me 😂 No surprises considering I'm afraid of everything though haha. We saw LOADS, there's wildlife hiding around every corner. That's why it was so nice to have a guide because they know all the secret spots to look!
Wauw thats the sort of walking holiday my man. and i would do 😜 stunning. 🥰. Looking forward to to the next Part My man just asked me. “ when we going “ 😅 ( seem easy but its not due to health issues )
The best kind of walking holiday where everything is planned for you haha. Sending you all the good, healthy vibes! Until you can get here, we'll keep travelling for the two of you!
Love your video! We’re headed there for a 3 day hike in early November with a similar excursion as yours. Curious as to the shoes you wore? I’m struggling with the best choice given the amount of walking. What did you wear Stacey? Also, did you need a swimsuit or just hiking clothes?
Beautiful video, thank you so much once again! Any chance you could perhaps adopt me?? I've been trying to find a way to move to NZ but it's proving to be very difficult. I promise I'm house trained 😜
Hi, we will be there in Jan, is there any way to do all the day walks all in 3 days without spending the nights there and also without going on water taxis ? We will be staying at Redwood Valley and will be driving back and forth into Abel Tasman each day.
There’s not sorry. Check a map to see the limited places you get driving access into the park and a hiking trail map to see the walks. They’re all essentially one way in and back so you can’t reach a lot of spots unless you take the ferry or walk the day prior.
@@DanegerAndStacey really appreciate the response, been trying to figure this out based people’s post, comments and thru Abel Tasman website. I thought it could be something similar to the beautiful Wilsons Prom NP in Australia, but i guess not :-) Really appreciate your well made reviews, helps us heaps in planning our trip 😊
