If you come to Dunedin you should go to this place

http://www.natureswondersnaturally.com/

I did it a few years ago it was pretty legit, awesome views

Then theres Queenstown and Wanaka, Wanaka more chilled out than Queenstown both are realll nice places though.

Hamner Springs near Chirstchurch is probably worth a look at, just natural hot pools
