Three weeks, two islands, $42/day average. The DOC campsites map is the most valuable thing on this site — saved us from paying $80/night at holiday parks.

Retired last March, doing the South Island loop in my camper. Tramper found me a free campsite at Manapouri with a lake view I'd have paid $200 for in a hotel.

Bangalore → WHV
Working holiday, 11 months in. The $45/day budget is real — we actually averaged $38 in the South Island once we got the hang of DOC sites and market food.

The detail panel on Rotorua showed me Kuirau Park — I never would have found it otherwise. Cooked breakfast in a geothermal pool for free. Unreal.
