NZ is a lot better than Australia...Of course, the time I spent in Australia was mostly at Alice Springs.

If you're not into the urban vibe the camper van is the best thing going. We had wheels and a bed for about $40 US per day not including gas. This was about 3 yrs ago. Best part, besides seeing lots of the coastline and country, was that if you didn't like a place you could just pull up stakes and move on. Not being extremely familiar with the place we weren't sure exactly where to go. Therefore, it was nice not being locked into a location because we had committed to it weeks/months in advance based purely on the photos and commentary from their own website.

Watch out for all the critters down there that can defend themselves quite well. Box jellyfish, cone shells, cane toads, and about 8 out of the 10 world's deadliest snakes call that place home. Oh yeah, crocs too.

Never been to the NorthWest Island of New Zealand. Just the middle island.
