My Tki Tour

\My Tiki Tour of New Zealand/Aotearoa

Learning Task: Complete your ideal kiwi road trip tiki tour.

Use a map of NZ and identify 4 places you would like to visit in either the North or South Island. You are leaving from home so you will need to consider your mode of transport and budget for this. You also will need accommodation and food. Money's no object but if you want to hitchhike or go to the backpackers for a new experience, remember to be safe. For each place, identify why you want to visit that place, whether it is a new experience of not, what you plan on doing while you are there and money you will need for leisurely activities.

I will book three motels, one night each in Rotorua, Taupo and Christchurch. I’ll buy a plane ticket  before I start heading on my holiday.

Day 1

I will be traveling from Hastings to Rotorua in my car. It will take two and a half hours to get there because when I went there two years ago, it took two and a half hours.

I will need $100 for gas, $250 for food, $500 for motel which is a total of $850.

In Rotorua I plan on getting a motel first, then put my stuff that i brought there and go hiking for two  hours.

After I go hiking, I will hire a bike because I like speeding on bikes and  I want to travel to the bottom of the mountain.

The last thing I will do is go to the  motorbike track and go motocrossing.

My trip sounds like a lot of fun, I hope it will be!

Day 2

When I leave Rotorua, I will start to head to Taupo. I might need $100 for gas. It will take one hour to travel there.

I will need $250 for food and $500 for a motel.

After unpacking, I’ll go for a swim at the hot pools, I like swimming. The pools are so cool because they are huge and deep.

Day 3

When I  leave Taupo, I’ll fly to Christchurch.  I will buy a ticket which will cost $230.

When I get there I will wander around the city and look at the big building.

Later I will get something to eat like Burger King or McDonalds or Fish n Chips.

Day 4

I’ll go back to Taupo and get my car. I’ll drive back to Hastings.
