Have you ever wanted to travel to the spectacularly beautiful South Island of New Zealand, - if not, why not? This is the first episode in our New Zealand podcast series, and I can guarantee if this part of New Zealand wasn’t on your travel list – it will be after this and the next few episodes. Today we are taking you to one the most stunning places in the world. This week join us as we travel to Queenstown and to the main ski resorts that surround this gorgeous city. Now, I know you might not be into skiing or snowboarding yourself, however, we share the best resorts for non-skiers, brand new skiers, intermediate and advanced. We had all the above with us on this trip from one year olds to grandparents and if you don’t want to ski you can to watch the action from the comfort of the heated café areas. There are four main ski areas that we tell you about, Coronet Peak – The Remarkables, Tremble Cone and Cardrona. Some of these areas are better for different levels and we share all those details with you. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Beach Travel Wine podcast episode without some funny stories – and in this one you will hear about how we nearly called it quits before we started. And Lyle’s most embarrassing moment at the top of a blue run (that’s advanced level skiing) There is whole lot more to this part of New Zealand than skiing and we give some insights to those as well. Stay listening to the end to hear what is now the most popular reason people travel to Queenstown – and it has nothing to do with snow or mountains. Please enjoy episode 74 all about Queenstown, New Zealand.
