Really enjoyable video and your Facebook stories too, looking forward to the next ones😃

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Cheers TJ! Appreciate you watching as always 👍😊

Another great video 👍 Catlins is one of those places where you keep finding new things every visit. We've gone through three times now and still find new areas 👍😀 The Lost Gypsy is a hive of interesting gadgets. The area out back which you pay for is a further extension with hands on activities. 👍

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Ah thanks! I wondered what it was back there, the Catlins are neat huh, on our list to go back to at some stage 😊

@stevefrederick4842 2 года назад

Looking forward to your reviews of places we hope to get to in the next few weeks🇳🇿Hamilton NZ

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Oh awesome! Hope you have a great time down here 😁

@garth2876 2 года назад

Agree with the comments that it's pretty spread out and a bit of back and forth to fit everything in and access facilities and shops. Definitely a stunning part of the country.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Nice huh! That’s where a caravan comes in handy with day trips and grocery runs. We loved it down there though! Hope the news Bub is doing well 😊

@garth2876 2 года назад

@@AdventuresWithRosy she sure is. Mum has a broken foot though which is a bit challenging - tripped while away in the caravan. I think our next trip will be Easter time when it's hopefully healed up

Oh boy I didn't realize I was so far behind in your vlogs !!! Must be lovely for Harvey having his cousin there. That's one pretty epic cave.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Yeh he had a great time with his cousin 😁 was really nice seeing them!

Cheers Bevan! We had a fantastic time on Stewart Island, real gem of NZ. Busy editing the videos now 😉

Crown came off my tooth in the McLean Falls carpark eating a fruit burst. Then when we were driving out we suddenly got a couple of bars signal.. quick quick call the dentist in Queenstown! Told them sad story got a booking in Frankton for a couple of days time... all good got it glued on again!

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Oh no!! Those fruit bursts will get you. It better have been a green one and not one of the banana ones! 🤢🤮😅

@craignelson-swiftyenzed7578 2 года назад

@@AdventuresWithRosy No one likes banana.

We couldn't get over the good quality of the roads, despite the isolation.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Yeh that’s a good point! Even the gravel roads were great, no complaints there 👍

@acerone10 2 года назад

Greetings from Ohio. New Zealand sounds and looks amazing. Glad you are having a good time.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Thanks! Having a great time 😊

@RadRoadAdventures 2 года назад

It's amazing how remote it seems in the Catlins, looks like it provided a few highlights. Purakaunui Bay Campsite was our favorite and we've never seen the Cathedral caves, your video has us excited about getting back down there. Looking forward to your adventures at Monkey Island then onto Stewart Island

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

It’s beautiful down there huh! We loved Pinders Pond and Monkey Island (Thanks for the tip 😉) Stewart island was amazing too! Got loads of footage to wade through haha

@bones3745 2 года назад

Catlins area is a stunning place to visit and we agree that Curio Bay is probably the best, although that campground was expensive with very poor facilities the dolphins jumping in the bay made up for it. A recommendation for Invercargill is Hayes Hammer Hardware in the main street which may sound strange but they have a huge display of classic and historic vehicles and memorabilia. Including the real Burt Munro "world's fastest Indian" along with a lot of his things. Added bonus it's free.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Ah interesting, I wondered if the Burt Munro bike was somewhere! Will add it to the list. Agree about Curio Bay, stunning location but not the best for what you pay that’s for sure. Chelsea’s parents enjoyed it and saw penguins as well as dolphins so worth it in that respect 😊

@leopardsgowild Год назад

cheers guys we've been rewatching some of your stuff before we head there... Any top tips on where you can get water?

@AdventuresWithRosy Год назад

Good question! I’d probably have to look back at the app and see. I know we had water at Curio bay at the campground and a few of the dump stations had water too but yeh definitely need to plan ahead with water down there 👍

@robinmills5827 2 года назад

You're allowed to 'complain' about problems 😂, even in beautiful places. We didn't have a camper for that trip and I was with a group that booked cribs/houses along the way so we didn't have dump station issues. I notice most people drive Dunedin - Invercargill in a couple of days. Perhaps the lack of facilities is why. A bit like the West Coast when the PDS at Franz Josef is closed. My only complaint was that I got tired of waterfalls🤣. The Papatowai area was my favourite and my only regret was that our accommodation was up in the hills and not on the coast.

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Haha yeh loads of waterfalls huh! We didn’t bother seeing them all. Booking a house is probably a good way to go, just do day trips from there. Pretty stunning part of NZ huh 🥰

Hey guys we have watched everyone of your vlogs, we are big fans 👍🏻 We too are heading down to the South Island on Saturday for a 9 month tour. Just wondered if you guys purchased the DOC pass? If you did, has it been worth it for you, or do you tend more to stay at other accommodation like NZMCA, CAPS, POP, so prefer to just pay at the time. Thanks heaps ☺️

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Yup we purchased a DOC pass, well worth it if you are on the road for an extended period of time 😊 there are loads of awesome ones down here. From memory the pass covers all DOC sites now? It use to exclude some…. It seems to change each year haha but we definitely got value out of ours 👍 loads of awesome Freedom camping down here too

@okewagirl 2 года назад

@@AdventuresWithRosy cool, thanks heaps for the reply! We will grab one then 👍🏻. Definitely will check out some freedom camping spots too. Exciting, can’t wait ☺️

@caravanstuff2827 2 года назад

Great post as usual...im not likely to go there and send my money as there's no RV infrastructure.. it's obvious the locals aren't serious about tourism down that way... never mind you guys had a great time though!!!.😎🇳🇿

@michaelconnell8624 2 года назад

We've gone through three times now in our previous motorhome a Mitsi Camper with each trip being about 5 to 7 days. A bit of preplanning for places to stay and no problems. A great mix of Free, DoC and NZMCA spot with a number of PoP/CaP(if NZMCA member) but we've stuck to either DoC or Freedom. This year we'll be going through in our 7m bus. You just make the most of what you can and enjoy. It's worth the trip 👍😀

@AdventuresWithRosy 2 года назад

Yeh its doable just needs a bit of planning around supermarkets and dump stations etc. well worth visiting still 😉
