    I like this style of video. This is like you summarizing your adventures and it helps put all your trips an input into one video!!! I will definitely be rewatching this when I visit Wanaka in the future! THE PUZZLE ILLUSION WORLD LOOKS SO SO COOL. THE DESSERTS AT PATAGONIA LOOK AMAZING

    Cool place and great advice on the walk/hike to go to the top! We would pass on the shooting and archery as we have our own of both and shoot all the time, but for someone who never had it’s a great experience so as not to fear guns. We had a friend visit from Italy and we loaded up about 30 different guns from pistols, AR’s, shotgun, sniper rifles, etc and he had a blast trying them all out!

    For me, the best part about Wanaka is Warbirds over Wanaka air show. During Easter 2010, I travelled with 8 buddies to South Island from Sydney. We rented a mini-bus, and we simply drove around. One day after we had lunch at Wanaka we found that the airport area was noisy, and it turned out to be the air show. We spent the whole afternoon at the air show and it was amazing.

    Late to the party but thought I'd add a lot of locals seem to agree that the tree grew from an old fence post from when that area was all farm land :) If you haven't been, I highly recommend going to Wanaka station park next time you're in town - that's where the farmers would have stayed/managed livestock/etc and it's absolutely beautiful! As a sidenote, I grew up in wanaka but didn't visit the tree until I was 17 haha
