Q:
Hi All, This is an overall question about the best way to drive from Christchurch to Queenstown over 7days. My family(6) and Arrive in Christchurch In April and we are hiring a camper van and have little idea what to do with 4 kids under 10. Any suggestions of a 7 day travel plan? Best holiday parks for kids? Looking to fish, bicycle, hike and relax. Can you swim over Easter or is it too cold? Definitely looking at Lake Tepako as our first stop.
A:
I would only say that many of these places such as Franz Josef and Lake Tekapo are small towns with a few main things to do. Not too sure if young kids would be terribly interested.
Q:
Is the last week of November (around 25th) a good time to see lupines at Lake Tekapo?
A:
You will be able to see at least some of them, if no most of them, in bloom.
Q:
We are planning a few days in April 9,10. What weather can we expect?
A:
Hi, we arrived to sun and t shirts in Nov and woke up to snow and wind, so be prepared and enjoy! It's a fab place, fab colours fab people.
