Amy & Tom's trip to New Zealand - December 2011. Here's a compilation of images and video footage for our five day trip, which included Rotorua and Auckland. We had heaps of fun and it was difficult to fit it all into this video. If the video were any longer it would get boring for viewers... so enjoy!
We would recommend Mokai Canyon (aka Mokai Gravity Canyon) and doing all three extreme activities, Bungy, Giant Swing and the Flying Fox. Awesome place for thrillseekers and beautiful views to be seen as well.
Zorbing is great for those who like to stay closer to the ground. We did the wet and dry tracks and the wet (called the Zydro) combined with the Zig-zag track was the best. Take your boardies!
We've never been white water rafting before and we enjoyed our first encounter alot. Watching the video afterwards makes it seem a bit tame but it was much more thrilling at the time. The river ranged from class 2 to class 5 in some places.
Day One: Zorb, Rotorua
Day Two: Bungee, Giant Swing and the Flying Fox, Mokai Canyon, Taihape
Day Three: White Water Rafting, Okere Falls
Day Four: Te Puia, Rotorua
Day Five: Mt. Victoria/Auckland
Images and footage were captured using a Sony Cybershot HX5V and a GoPro Hero2 in full HD 1080p. Some content was also purchased from the operators at Mokai Canyon. They used a Nikon DSLR for the images and their fixed cameras for the videos.
