Mad Campers Hotel Rentals
Published: March 29, 2026
Video Description
New Zealand's South Island is like no where else on the planet. From the wild west coast to the sweeping east, we drove through glaciers, rainforests, fjords, and mountain passes that honestly made us question whether places this beautiful were even real. But it didn't all go to plan — our first day threw some proper South Island weather at us (classic), and we quickly learned that travelling here means rolling with it.
📍 Places covered in this video:
Franz Josef Glacier | Fox Glacier | Hokitika Gorge | Wanaka | Queenstown | Milford Sound | Isthmus peak | Mount Cook | Hooker Valley
