Hello, currently planning my trip for this December, your content is so well done, very helpful. Was planning on doing this drive, yet in the opposite direction, any reason it would be any less awesome? kind regards
It will be awesome in either direction. Wonderful to hear you are planning now for Dec, it’s so important to do this early and secure those special places at best prices. Cheers Michael 😃
@virtualjourneysnz Gr8 informative video. We are planning for trip during first 2 weeks of May. How would the drive and weather conditions from Wanaka to Fox glacier during the period. Is it recommended to drive during that time
May is generally a wonderful time, especially on the West Coast of the South Island. Days getting shorter and temperatures a little cooler, but less rain and wind (generally!).
Thanks for all the advice, I really look forward to travelling to NZ. At 7:09 there is a picture of beautiful mossy trees. Can you tell me where that was taken or whereabouts in New Zealand you can walk through a forest like that?

Glad you enjoy the details. You will get those mosses on trees between Lake Paringa and the Haast Pass. There are a few walks into the forest. Enjoy!
@ Thank you!
Can you please tell me which part of the year is more suitable for this road trip? I mean which time gives more stunning view?
Really any time of the year is good for this part of the NZ. Personally I prefer March to May as this has often the most stable weather conditions.
@@virtualjourneysnz Thank you 😊
