Originally posted by itshimitis Conditions change very quickly, which is why I am grateful I'm not one of the sheep on the coaches from Queenstown. Next time I'm going to use the camper site at Milford Sound itself...
Absolutely. We lacked the time to stay at Milford Sound for more than a day trip, but that's was because we planned poorly. Next time (if there is one), we will fly into Christchurch instead of Auckland, rent our camper there, and never leave the South Island. Then, we could spend several days at Milford Sound. As crowded as it was when we were there (late September a few years before he Lord of the Rings Effect, which may be wearing off at this point), I have this feeling campsite berths have to be booked far in advance.
