biggest lake in the South Island – Lake Tekapo, and have lunch at the beautiful
lakeside. Drive pass the quot;Home of Fruitquot; Crownwell, you can buy some of the fresh
produce. Along the way, we can watch the world-renowned hop dance class; those

Day 3 Queenstown——Milford Sound-Te Anau
After breakfast go to the World Nature Heritage Geopark Milford Sound. Tour along
the famous Mirror Lake, Homer Tunnel, Henry Canyon, and other attractions. Arrive
at the fjord aboard the luxury cruise Milford Sound tour, enjoy a delicious buffet
cruise and enjoy the ice-age ice water and magnificent mountain and falls. You may
be lucky to see seals, dolphins, birds, and experience the feelings of harmony between
human beings and nature.
Day 4 Te Anau---Dunedin---Omaru
After breakfast, we go to the South Island's second largest city - Dunedin. There are
many beautiful 19th century buildings and a wonderful Chinese park – Lan Yuan. A
relic of the early Scottish immigrants, the historical University of Otago is famous for
its Faculty of Medicine. Main attractions include the Art Gallery with displays dating
from the Middle Ages and featuring Renaissance painting and classical literature. You
can also travel down what are reportedly the world’s steepest streets. Dunedin
Railway Station has a long history, whether it is for its carved hollow decorative glass
or wall mosaics reflecting the glory of the past. We reach Oamaru before the evening
rush - located on the East Coast's second largest fishing port, where we will take you
to watch the world's smallest penguin - the strange fairy penguins’ home landscape.

2. Day 5 Oamaru---Christchurch---Auckland
After breakfast, depart from Oamaru to visit the Moeraki boulders beach, one of the
world’s natural wonders – large, round boulders that have gone through millions of
years of wind erosion. No-one knows precisely the origin of the rounded shape,
perhaps they are alien meteorites. We follow on to a town that is one of the main
attractions of the East Coast, Ashburton, and then return to our starting city of
Christchurch, and take a final city tour. In the afternoon we board a domestic flight
back to the City of Sails – Auckland.
