Lake Tekapo is located on the South Island about 3 hours southwest of Christchurch on the route to Queenstown. After picking up our RVs in Christchurch, we arrived at a campsite after dark. We were pleasantly surprised by the stunning views of the turquoise lake, mountains, and beautiful flowers that we awoke to the next morning. Lake Tekapo is just one of the many gorgeous views we encountered while on the South Island.
Accommodation Options
We toured the South Island in RVs with 12 of our friends from home. We stayed in our RVs at campgrounds and were pleasantly surprised by the facilities.
