Somebody was asking if they any good at towing vehicles with signs over them
Was thinking of buying some of these, but then looked at the prices of fuel and decided against it ⛽😉

Its a REALLY challenging road for sure. I remember decades ago driving it and feeling quite scared as a young fella. There days with blood pressure an issue I'd definitely not drive it again. One of my favorite Top Gear episodes is when the team did the death road in Bolivia. Never seen Jeremy Clarkson look so genuinely afraid than at one point when the road nearly caved in on him. I think the guys earned their pay that week !
I don't feel sorry for that company if they take a bath on those vehicles, in fact quite the opposite, its payback time ! They've been bending local Kiwi's over for many years with their prices on leading tourism activities. Queenstown has a reputation as a VERY expensive place to holiday because of companies like them assuming everyone has Euro's in their pocket not $kiwi
Good example, short trip on the Earnslaw and BBQ lunch and they want $129 https://www.realnz.com/en/experience...et-bbq-dining/
Really you think a 4 hour activity including a farm display and food is overpriced?
I would have to agree with you. That is not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things for what you are getting, getting chauffeured around and food. Try going to an accountant with $129 for 3 and a half hours, you will just end up with getting advice from the secretary.
LOL maybe you guys have a point. Quite obviously I can afford it and have done it with my family and yes it was a lot of fun and I really LOVE the Earnslaw. Actually the people running the whole show are super nice and really made the trip. Have been on Earnslaw many times and done the Doubtful sound and Milford sound cruises with Real Journey's too.
I guess my point is can the average Kiwi family afford it though ? Maybe they should do special deals for Kiwi's spending $Kiwi not American dollars or Euro's ?
Maybe that's not the best example and $159 for the 20 minute Shotover Jet ride is a better example, (acknowledge owned by one of the Maori tribes not the company that owns the Earnslaw).
