Fiji or Hawaii???? (02/12/2010)
|
I recently spent about 12 days in Fiji and highly recommend it, although I haven't been to Hawaii. We stayed at the Amunuca Resort, which is a budget resort on the same island as a nice resort so you get the best of both worlds. The snorkeling was amazing. We just walked into the beach and a reef was 100 feet from the shore. If you are american, just think you can always fly to Hawaii - but Fiji is like 12 hours from California..

Philippines criticizes travel warning (02/09/2010)
|
You are right Quality Townsville, but we can't also blame if people are extra careful. The most dangerous part of the Philippines is Mindanao but not all Mindanao region. Only the lower part which include Tawi-tawi, Sulo, Maguindanao, Jolo because these provinces are near in Indonesia and Malaysia. Only 2 hours from speed boat. This is very easy for the kidnapper to bring their kidnap victims to other country. These abu sayaff are really dangerous because they are member of the taliban group, I ...

New Zealand - Taupo, Turangi, or Mangakino? (3-4 Months) (11/15/2009)
|
hey there. Yes your 3G would be usable in Taupo, neighboring areas can only get you signal for calling, 2g and 2.5G.. and the major 3G locations are far out there in wellington and auckland. Taumarunui can also access 3G which is 2-3 hours from taupo, but not as fast as you could get in taupo.
buying a used car in auckland is easy! selling it would need time. check out http://www.autotrader.co.nz/ where you can buy and sell your car..

Which is better? Australia or New Zealand (11/14/2009)
|
[quote]why do people keep asking that anyway? why not just visit both! :D[/quote]
That's a good point. We decided most of our time in New Zealand since living costs seem lower there and there are no poisonous/deadly creatures.
Then we'll do a quick week or two in Australia, just for a taste of the country..

Transport around New Zealand (11/10/2009)
|
I agree, there aint country with no offenders. I dont see why NZ is terrible? it is probably one of the most scenic places (if you like beaches and landscapes), and people are cool they are infact glad to help tourists and sometimes would offer you lodging or a carpark in exchange of a minimum cost.
the ferry transport are on bargains if you wanted to travel both north and south. both islands have compact attractions so theres always something to capture..

Stray Travel or Flying Kiwi or Kiwi Exp, for backpacking? (10/15/2009)
|
I know this thread was posted a while ago but for those of you discussing which tour bus to use, which did you go with in the end? My boyfriend and I arrive in NZ in Nov and think we will be using Flying kiwi because of all the good reviews we've heard.
Being slightly older than the average traveller, we too don't want to go on a "bang bus" so hoping flying kiwi is the one for us?
cheers guys

I'm getting tired of people copying and pasting posts from other boards just in order to do quick and easy posts with a view to getting their sig seen.
The above post has simply been taken from http://forum.virtualtourist.com/discussion-487016-1-1-Travel-0-0-Auckland-discussion.html - it was made by someone called Emma.
That's funny, because in the above poster's previous post to this one, he(?) claimed he was a 25-year-old guy (chances are that that was just another copy and paste job, so ...

Just a though, why do you have to buy if you are just visiting NZ. hmmm... that could be a lot of expense. registration and everything else that goes with owning a second owned vehicle.

NZ Visa Questions (08/06/2009)

I guess they all said it. I bet you have agencies in your country to process that for you or to guide you so to make it easy as well as give you an advice. then all you have to worry about is your travel in NZ.
