    A bit of info about the Banks Peninsula from ChristchurchNZ:
    A journey around this beautiful peninsula will reward you with picturesque vistas at every turn, a thriving artisan culture and a marine environment teaming with wildlife. Come and immerse yourself in the alluring French character of Akaroa township - a seaside retreat just 90 minutes from Christchurch.
    Akaroa simply oozes charm! Nods to its history as a French settlement are everywhere, with pretty French-named streets, lined with historic cottages cloaked in roses. While away the hours browsing boutique shops and craft galleries, and stop for a pick-me-up of fine local food and wine at a café or restaurant overlooking the shimmering waters of Akaroa Harbour. Relaxation doesn’t get much better than this!

    Incredible scenery! You showed everything off so well. I think about 10 years ago we were lucky enough to spend a birthday on the Banks Peninsula. This really makes us want to return. Great tunes also! 😀

    Thanks as always I truly get more and more excited about NZ every Vlog you make.
    It has got to the stage now where I have to organise repeated hold to NZ to see and do everything I want.
    N.B. hope you have found some other cool canyoning adventures. Looking to do it in Split in 2 months.
    Happy travels 😀

    You had a fun group and an amazing RV to travel in. Such a beautiful area, I think my favorite shots were the sunrise ones though.

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому

      Cant complain at all! Best sunrise of the year 🤙

    The RV is pretty sweet! LOL at the bathroom scene. Cool to find hidden falls. I like the time lapse (?) effect at 2:58....how did you do that? I wanna swim with dolphins too!! Great editing as usual, Ryan!!

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому

      Hey mate! Yep its just a regular timelapse, but each photo is a long exposure to create motion blur. I think I was doing 1 second exposures. Thanks for watching bro! 🍻

    Nice edit mate! Wish I had known about some of those spots when I did my banks peninsula mission lol. Keep it up man loving this content

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому

      Hey bro! Thanks a lot. Dude I couldn't believe some of the stuff we found out there! Pretty underrated 🤙

  • @JoshEdwardsFilms
    @JoshEdwardsFilms 6 років тому

    Great video man! The whole time you were at that sunrise on the beach I was like GET. THE. DRONE. OUT 😬. I can't get over how beautiful New Zealand is. This is exactly what I want to see in the travel videos I watch here on UA-cam :) keep it up. I just locked in a little campervan trip myself - going to be doing a similar thing showing off the local area I live in which I feel is really underrated! Your RV was an absolute beast though 😂 could literally live in that full-time

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому +1

      Thanks Josh! Haha its so hard juggling 2 cameras and a drone and figuring out which one to shoot with when you want to shoot with all three! Thankfully I got it up to get that one shot just before the sun went behind the cloud lol. The van was so sick! Apparently it can sleep 6 adults haha

    • @JoshEdwardsFilms
      @JoshEdwardsFilms 6 років тому

      Haha I know your pain. The drone shot was sick though :) and really? That's so good like especially if all six people chipped in for costs - could make it a decent option for road trippers. Looking forward to more like this

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому

      Thanks man!

    The must have been so amazing to be swimming with the dolphins. We did it once in Hawaii, but our encounter wasn't a close as yours. And that was an epic sunrise!

  • @Y2J

    did you have any trouble taking the campervan up lighthouse road to the akaroa heads? (did you go there? not sure, can't tell from the video) that's a 4wd road, I was afraid to take my SUV up there (2wd)

    • @itsryanwilkes
      @itsryanwilkes  6 років тому

      That first timelapse of the cliffs and stars was taken out at Akaroa Head. But nah we didn't take the van out there mate. Got a local mate to come mission with us!
