DH and I are beginning to plan our holiday for when we go in 2012. We are currently compiling a list of places we want to go to. So tell me...

What were the highlights for you?

What is essential that we see?

What should we avoid?

Any accommodation you might be able to recommend and places to stay away from?



Thanks in advance

What kinds of things do you like? What sort of activities/scenery etc? There's quite a lot of different things to see and do and NZ
I've travelled around the south island a bit - hiking, hot springs, beach, glacier, etc...
