Did you see how relaxed that guy was without a reservation at Lake Tekapo? If you don't plan ahead, you really can't find a place to stay. It took us more than two hours to find a place to stay in the nearby town, which is more than an hour away from Lake Tekapo. Only those who are tired know how tired they are.

From Auckland to Queenstown, I want to rent a car all the way from the North Island to the South Island. Is it more cost-effective and convenient to rent separate cars for each leg of the journey, or is it easier to take the car on the ferry and return it at a different location ? New Zealand Q&A

Returning the car to a different location and transporting it by ship may not be very cost-effective, but driving from Auckland to Wellington is also considered returning the car to a different location. Then, picking up another car in Picton and returning it in Queenstown is also considered returning the car to a different location. If the cost difference is not too big, maybe it's still more convenient to take the car by ship to the South Island, right ? New Zealand Q&A

Excuse me, when turning left on a dedicated left turn lane in New Zealand, but the straight road is a roundabout red light, do I need to look at that red light? Or just observe the vehicles on the right? I came across such a junction, and saw that the foreigners went straight regardless of the red light. I was not dare to go, and was forced by the car behind, and I didn't know if I could go ? New Zealand Q&A

On Zhihu, I saw that people in New Zealand usually exceed the speed limit by about 10%. If tourists don't exceed the speed limit, they will be considered slow, and even someone has been forced to stop. I want to ask people who have been there about the actual situation. Is it a big problem to drive at 100 km/h honestly ? New Zealand Q&A

But in Europe, old cities are all built around both sides of the river, and many cities, because they are not located in strategic locations, were not destroyed too much by Allied planes in World War II (except Dresden). But even though Dresden was destroyed by 90%, they have now almost completely rebuilt the entire Dresden according to the original layout, so on both sides of the river in Dresden, it is still very beautiful. There are too many similar rivers in Europe. Otherwise, I'll ask a friend of mine who studied in Europe. He's in Hangzhou. I'll send him a picture and see if he can help you recognize it ?

If you can book a motorhome, it is still recommended that you book a motorhome. The travel time is free, there are also many motorhome campsites, and it is also solid. We felt very relaxed during our 15-day motorhome trip in the South Island. There is no need to worry about whether the accommodation can keep up. Motorhomes come in many varieties. compatriots who are not very familiar with right-hand drive and especially dare not drive large cars can choose smaller ones. There are cooking things on the car, which is very convenient ? New Zealand Q&A

Regarding the recent flooding in the South Island, tourists with travel plans in the near future do not need to panic. The latest information we have is as follows: 1. The water levels in the high-water areas of Lake Wakatipu and Lake Wanaka in Queenstown have reached their peak, and the weather has cleared up. This week is expected to be mostly sunny, with no more rain predicted, so the flood risk has been alleviated. Businesses along the shores of Lake Wanaka have resumed operations. The famous Wanaka Tree will remain partially submerged for a while longer due to the still-high water levels. Queenstown is experiencing clear weather, and recent photos show that while the water levels are high, the risk of flooding has diminished. 2. The South Island highways, which were previously closed, have started to reopen. State Highway 72 has resumed traffic, although there is heavy congestion, so travelers should allow extra time if using this route. 3. There is still flooding at the Rangitata Bridge section of State Highway 1, but once the water recedes, traffic will be able to resume. There is also flooding at the intersection of State Highway 1 and State Highway 79. The Timaru District Council has stated on social media that there is no risk of the recently reopened bridges on State Highway 72 being closed again. 4. The goal is to reopen State Highway 6 on the West Coast before Christmas, but this is entirely dependent on the weather conditions. If the weather remains favorable, the road repair progress will be normal, but if there is another heavy rain, it will affect the repair schedule. Therefore, travelers planning to visit the West Coast of the South Island around Christmas and New Year's need to closely monitor the road repair progress. The New Zealand Transport Agency's update on December 10th at 4pm: SH6 - The past two days have been sunny, and road repair progress has been smooth. The agency has been working to clear the landslide section between Fox and Franz Josef towns, aiming to reopen the Hokitika - Makarora section before Christmas. The Whataroa - Harihari section, which has suffered the most damage, is still closed due to multiple landslides, and the agency is striving to reopen it before Christmas ? New Zealand Q&A

So suggest people rent cars with credit cards and make sure your credit cards have rental car insurance. My card has it, so I don't have to buy any collision insurance. After getting home, I just fill out an online claim form, upload all the photos, documents, and credit card records when I rented the car, etc. Two weeks later, I received an email saying the claim was approved, and all the windshield fees that the rental car company deducted from me were returned to me. They asked me how I wanted them to send the money to me ? New Zealand Q&A

Hello everyone, I would like to ask if I need to buy full insurance when renting a car. I noticed that full insurance is very expensive in Queenstown.

The service staff took a lot of pictures when I picked up the car. I thought they were professional, so I didn't take any pictures (besides, I thought that since I had full insurance, there wouldn't be any problems if an accident happened). Today, when I returned the car, a different lady looked at it very carefully and found a little damage to the paint. She didn't compare it to the pictures when I picked up the car. She just emphasized that I didn't need to make any payments, but asked me to sign. I wondered if the insurance company was playing some kind of trick ? New Zealand Q&A

Apply for an electronic visa to New Zealand online, fill in the name according to the requirements, and find that the displayed name is opposite to the passport. If this is issued, the name should also be reversed. How do you fill in when you apply? For example, the visa is XU ZHANG, and the passport is ZHANG XU. Or do you need to reverse the order of the name when applying for the visa to keep it consistent with the order of the passport ? New Zealand Q&A
