Do you want a memorable and safe trip overseas? Stay with my parents on the famous Gold Coast, Australia. Or stay on my sister’s farm surrounded by the stunning beauty of NZ. Arrive in the garden city of Christchurch and then ride one of the best six train journeys in the world through the spectacular Southern Alps to the West Coast. My sister owns a 1,000 acre (4.5 km long) dairy farm in Hokitika between the mountains and sea. They have 500 cows. The area was a booming gold town 100 years ago, but now is an unspoiled paradise.

On the farm you can:

l         Go gold panning in the farm’s river.

l         See glow worms

l         Horse riding

l         Shooting

l         Fishing

l         Motorbike riding

l         NZ style Barbecue and Jacuzzi

l         Enjoy the stunning beauty, fresh air, bird’s songs and star filled Milky Way.

 

Near the farm you can:

l         Visit the glaciers ( on foot or by helicopter)

l         Visit an old gold mining town

l         Go skiing (5 ski fields)

l         Visit the Hokitika Gorge and Lake Kaniere

l         Hiking in the rain forest or exploring old gold mines

l         Mountain biking

l         See jewelry being made from jade and gold in Hokitika

The list is endless.
