Queenstown is our favourite place in New Zealand, if you're considering visiting NZ you HAVE to check it out. Finding a well located and decent hotel can be hard though, so when we heard about a smart hotel called mi-pad we knew that we had to stay there for our Queenstown accommodation! They kindly invited us to check it out and share some of the features, you can see more at their website www.mipadhotels.com or if you prefer to see reviews here - geni.us/KrHrCLp
Hotels aside, Queenstown is one of the most well balanced places in New Zealand in our opinion. There's incredible sites all around you, the mountains and ski town feeling make it feel European. There's so much to see and do here, they're home to the world famous Fergburger and a trip up on the Queenstown Skyline Gondola gives epic views out across the lake.
Fergburger is word famous, in fact, it's reportedly THE best burger in the world. We do have to say it is something special for sure, best in the world though? Hard one to say.
Even though we weren't that keen on doing the luge we still thought it was worth going up the Queenstown Skyline Gondola - there's so many things to do up the top, but it's honestly worth it just for the views up there! New Zealand is such an amazing place, we're beyond proud.

Tip for fergburger - order takeaways via the phone! No matter how long the line is, it's pretty much ready for you to pick up in 15mins. You skip the massive line and can chill at your accomodation until it's ready!
Love this!
That’s the best tip!!
thx ur tip!
The look on Stacy's face when the lights changed was épica!
Perfect response!
That view from your room!! Thanks for another great vlog!
My favorite Couple of travelers, very genuine and down to earth, gorgeous video and editing, a certain natural charisma as a couple.
Great future in this Genre I’m sure. Thanks so much.
Julian
Thanks so much, Julian!
Wow! Such a beautiful part of the world! Thanks for sharing with us.
You're more than welcome!
I visited Queenstown a week after lockdown ended. A unique opportunity to see the place so quiet and give it some support. No queue for Fergburger at all! Walked straight up to the counter. I had the chicken burger and omg it was delicious!
I was there for work a month after you guys filmed this. Love that place, hope the township of Queenstown survives this Covid bug!
It's definitely going to have a different feel to it after all this, it will definitely recover tho (fingers crossed)
Flying the nest I love Jess and steve n adorable little Hunter
I have stayed at the mi pad twice now and was so excited to see you guys staying here. Such a great hotel!!
Stunning in the winter also..
Arguably even more so!
Beautiful video and the views wauw 🤩
This channel is so underrated.
Your content is super great
You're so kind!! Thank you (we see all your comments and appreciate every single one!)
Wow just when I thought the scenery in this vlog couldn't get better you whip out that preview of that next vlog, wow can't wait for that 😍
Haha yeah, Milford Sound is special! Video is up now
THAT IS JUST STUNNING TO LOOK ACROSS THE LAKE....
When you said it was too windy by the water all I was thinking was - wait till you get into the gondola 🙈 Y'all braved it like two proper Kiwis! Inspiring
Haha so true! It gets bloody windy up there
This is such a great vid! Really helpful describing places to go in Queenstown - thank you! The mood lighting in the hotel is pretty cool too. Hope the burgers were worth it! Can’t wait to visit in Spring
So glad you enjoyed it, the burgers were definitely worth the wait! Next time we'll ring ahead so we dont have to wait in line.
Cool hotel, I'd play with the mood lighting lots lol. Cool Jess was on the wall. Lol at cable car. We have a video where I scream my way up a mountain in 1...so I so feel you ya Stacey. Looking forward to more NZ adventures.-Shawna🍁
"WTF!" LOL Brilliant!! I love watching your vlogs guys, wish I could travel with you! So much fun, still smiling! Stay safe and healthy in your travels. Cheers!
Haha this was a fun day. Hope you're keeping safe
Yay! I'm so excited for the Milford sound episode, I've always wanted to go to the Milford sound
Live now 😀
Big love for Queenstown, seriously the most beautiful town in NZ 😍 It gives like Switzerland kind of vibes ❤
Now we gotta go to Switzerland to compare!
Except for the lack of trains and traffic jams at 5 in the afternoon
I’m obsessed with this channel, loving all the videos! Cheers from Brazil ❤️
Yay! Glad you're enjoying
another great video!!!
Cheers Justin!
Another great video. Those views were spectacular. You'd think you were in Austria :)
So true!
Wow Burgers and stunning scenery. Does it get any better
Nope!
Queenstown is one of my most favourite places, Our trip to Milford was amazing,staying the night at one of the DOC campsites was a highlight of our trip.
We loved Milford as well! Just put our video live from there
What a beautiful scenery 😍😍 great video! 🥰🥰
So special isn't it! ❤️
Breathtaking scenery! 🤩
QT is a gem for sure!
After watching all the videos....I am definitely going to visit NZ especially Queenstown after the lock down is uplifted...good job guys...Keep it up!
Please do! Glad you've been enjoying
I just discovered your channel and am so thankful for your NZ afventures. My husband and I spent 3 weeks traveling the north and south islands for our honeymoon in December 2018. We fell in love with the country, and we've never recovered (in the best way possible). The best way we've found to describe our feelings is to say we feel homesick for NZ. We can't wait to return! Keep up the great content all around! ❤
That is awesome! We can definitely understand the feeling of being homesick for a place that isnt home ❤️
Loved watching you guys enjoying your trip to Queenstown. I have been and going back this year. Will get a burger. Well done.
What an absolutely fabulous location! The more I see of NZ, the more I like it. Great Stacey reactions to the ambient lighting and I love the tech at the hotel. There is no way I would have ridden in that gondola :) so I think the little f-bomb was absolutely justified!! New word for my vocabulary: "ferg".
Let us know where you find the best use for 'ferg' in your vocab 🤣🤣
Wow, this smart hotel looks amazing! We need to check it out 🙂 Vlog is good as always! Queenstown is one of our fav places in NZ, need to go there again!
Where else in NZ stood out for you?
@@DanegerAndStacey well, it's beautiful everywhere here! But we should say Northland is one of our fav regions and also Milford Sound is hard to beat 🙂
You guys are pulling at my heart strings! I’ve been to New Zealand twice and it is still by far the best and most beautiful country I’ve ever visited with the nicest locals ❤️ I left half of my heart in NZ
Glad we can warm half of your heart with these videos then!
You guys are so cute on the tram rinde. You made me laugh😂
Super casual eh 🤣🤣
very interesting vlog
Thanks!
Your the most luckiest couples love you guys
Double likes for stacey dropping the f bomb 😂 twice! Haha how good!
🤣🤣
Views forever! Ha ha Stacey's nervous Gondola seat transition "hmm hmm hmm smooth, I don't care, what?" Always a bit of comic relief in an informative Vlog, thanks guys.
She's a gem aint she, Mel 🤣🤣 Hope you guys are well!
I have just discovered your delightful vlogs and will be watching more! Warm, informative, fabulous filming and editing plus your charismatic relationship make for enjoyable viewing. We are leaving on a life long dream trip to New Zealand in 5 weeks from the USA so finding your vlogs to add visual to all the reading is serendipities! Thank you for your excellent work.
Hey Monica - thanks for the lovely comment! So glad you found us and you're enjoying, we hope your NZ trip is special
This is just the video I needed right now, was really wondering about Queenstown. Also, that camera quality is INCREDIBLE! Damn I need to stop using my phone for vlogs...
Haha phones are the best starting point though - only up from there :)
Great video....👍👍
Greetings from Houston Texas y'all....
Greetings back to you Carlos!
Nice . such a beautiful place. I thought Stacey was gonna up chuck furgburgwr. Lol
Haha me too 🤣🤣
What a nice space and stunning view!
Wish we could wake up to that daily!
That crazy high gondola ride to the top of the mountain is Totally worth the entire episode guys! Stunning views:😃
Definitely on our bucket list as we've never been to the south island but we're going asap.
Thanks for taking us along on this fun trip guys, James and Kim
We love the beach, but the South Islands where it's at guys - get back here and check it out ASAP! Glad you enjoyed hanging with us in this one
When Dane said 19 degrees is cold it made me laugh after coming out of an cold bath thinking I needed more ice.
They can keep their burgers, could have bought a kilo of scotch fillet for that.
As expected Queenstown is awesome.
We're weaklings when it comes to the weather these days huh! Queenstown is the goods for sure
@@DanegerAndStacey I can see how all those greek and croatian islands have made you 2 soft these days.
@@RenegadeRanga Exactly!
QT, what an amazing place!!!
Truth!
I lived in Queenstown for the 2016 and 2017 winters and what a gorgeous town, gotta check out red Rock Cafe and bar! They do a $10 breakfast (I believe possibly all day) and they have the cheapest beers in town! Chur!
Good suggestion! You reckon Devil is the better burger?
@@DanegerAndStacey oh 100% and their curry chips are legendary
Ha ha ha! Stace dropping the F bomb was so funny 😂
Filter was instantly removed haha
High five!
👋🏼
Ahhh, my favourite place in the world ❤️ I used to work on the Ledge Bungy at the top of that crazy gondola (was a unique commute haha)
Don't know if I'll ever be able to afford to go back to Queenstown but seeing this vlog is the next best thing. Miss you, New Zealand! 😭 X
Thats gotta be the worlds best work commute! Glad we can remind you of how special our lil home is.
Wow, what a beautiful location, epic views all around. Town looked really cool too and liked the smart hotel. Had to laugh at Stacey’s reactions going up in the Gondola. Did look very steep to be fair and moved very fast.
Good point, it actually moved crazy quick - maybe it was the height that added to it, but always a good laugh when Stace drops the F bombs 🤣🤣
"I'm about to Ferg all over the place, let me get outta here" - Dane, 2020
Didn't skip the ads to support you guys..... amazing vlog, queenstown looks stunning, definitely want to visit New Zealand some day!!!! Getting visa is a big hassle for us as we don't have an Embassy in our country and have to physically send the passport to neighboring country. But I do hope to overcome all obstacles one day and visit New Zealand. Thanks guys for showing us such beautiful places of my dream destination New Zealand. - Love from Bangladesh
@@iamin03 Too kind, thank you so much. Hope you get the chance to visit our beautiful country one day and we'll try to visit yours!
Wheres your next adventure
@@tarny11 The Cook Islands!
@@DanegerAndStacey Where's that
Went on a gondola like that in Banff with my parents. Cannot believe my dad went because hes terrified of heights. He was crying but so proud of himself for doing it and said the view was worth it. I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of the fall so I hate that sway. I sat facing out on the way down and freaked out lol. My dad was laughing me so I guess I was his distraction. 😂
Can just imagine this whole scene playing out as you explained it 🤣🤣 Going up is hard, but then you realise you gotta go back down!
Awesome video ❤❤
Nice vlog! NZers like their own space hence having the cabin all to yourselves. 😉 They don’t like squeezing in tourists into one cabin. I guess unless it’s way too hectic…
We're definitely happy with that!
Daneger and Stacey omg did u just reply?! Thanks for sharing your adventures and travels with us! Stay safe and God bless! 💙
Yup... and again ☺️
such a cool hotel
WATCHING YOUR VIDEIS MAKE ME SMILE 😊 GUYS YOU ARE PRETTY AWESOME
Thanks brother!
Daneger and Stacey You are very welcome
We love goin to furgburger, they never disappoint, but you have to try the furg bakery next door, it’s sooooo good, breaky on the run before hitting the slopes 👌🏽
Haha we totally had a pie from the bakery as well 🤣🤣
I laughed so hard on the gondola ride scenes that I had to watch it again. WOW...there were bombs going off on that thing :). Dane had the classic comment that still makes me laugh. So spontaneous! What an awesome hotel. I'm lovin' these videos from NZ. I'm with you Stacey...I fly all over the place but I can't handle the gondola rides...Makes me queasy. Well done my beautiful friends!
Love it - if you're laughing with us that's bloody brilliant! Such a fun day - glad you enjoyed
I love New Zealand. Queenstown was amazing. What city are you guys from? Greetings from a berliner living in LA. Loved your berlin video so much ♡
Glad you liked our Berlin vids, we REALLY want to see more of Germany soon! We're from Auckland.
I wonder if you went to ferg burger first thing in the morning if you’d be able to get a burger without the lines. You know it’s a good place when it takes an hour to get the food 😅
Senior Famz Well there ya go 😃
Sounds like phoning them first is the best answer - next time!
Just discovered your channel and loving your videos so far.
Queenstown is one of my favourite areas of it too ❤️
Top tip for Fergburger - avoid the queues by placing your order by phone and then just go and collect it 🍔
So happy you found us! YES! We've been back again since this video and called ahead. Thanks for the tip!
@@DanegerAndStacey I'm currently watching your Scottish videos - I'm from Inverness - and I'm glad you felt at home here, just as much as I do in NZ by the sounds of it 🙂
@@rob1971 Oh we LOVED Scotland, easily a highlight of the past few years for us
Hello! I really enjoy watching your videos! Subscribed!!! Do you mind to share about driving + car rental in new zealand together with parking in the hotel etc? Thank you so so much for sharing ♥️
What would you like to know? We didn't have any included car park here so just used on street parking
Loved your vlog!
Thanks so much!
I tooks the sky cab in Malaysia (worlds higest) and it was absolutely terrifying. I didny know it was the higest until after the fact though 😂
Is that the one at Genting? We went on that in a video last year
It is a very small beautiful town and it is very clean. Yes, it looks a little town in Europe. It must be cold during the winter.
By our version of cold, yeah, not compared to Europe though haha 🤣🤣
😍😍
I lost it when Stacey said the F word (and twice). :-)
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good video
What a technology man
Next time, make a phone order :)
So we've heard! Next time for sure.
Hopefully I take a visit to Queenstown one day.
We hope you get to!
Hi guys, could y tell me which camera you use to make this video? The quality is so good! Nice vlog... well done 🤗
We use the GH5 - recently did a video on all our equipment you can check out
Great vlog. Still prefer devil burger. Gondala steeper than it looks. 😊
Devil burger is wayyyy better
Hearing that a bit at the moment, next time we'll compare
I Visited Queenstown 40 years ago when i hitch hiked around NZ and worked on an apple orchard near Nelson just wondering do they still have the night club up the mountain?
Now that sounds like the proper way to see NZ and meet the locals! Doesnt appear to be a club up there any more, sadly
how many weeks ago were you at Milford Sound, as it's not readily accessible right now since the floods...
We were there just before the floods, so sad to hear about the roads, hopefully will be fixed up soon! Video live now
@@DanegerAndStacey i think it's not truly back on deck, still limited at times, not the M.Sound more to do with road access...plus it doesn't seem to be any better rain/weather wise. But hey, Auckland took in some more rain today...the drought has been pretty bad this year...
Wow
You’re so lucky to explore everywhere
Stacey and Daneger are living in future...poor old us...living in the old style hotels... ;)
🤣🤣 we're so progressive!
@@DanegerAndStacey i know right? and next trip might be to the Moon or Jupiter...who knows!
@@lailaagrado The moon would get a hell yes from me!
devil burger > Ferg burger, also fat badgers is a pizza place. Also were you guys there before or after the large rain dump if so the routeburn is really nice.
Definitely gonna have to check out Devil burger next time!
You would have definatly got a refund on the fergburger if you bungy jumped , lol 😁.
We were their in Jan , was quite hot . Looks a lot cooler now .
Haha if we'd done a bungy we would have seen the burger a second time for sure 🤣🤣
apparentley devil burger around the corner is owned by one of the original fregburger creators and are just as good for a much shorter wait time!
We hear this a lot - we've been there too and thought it was great. We've learnt to phone Fergburger ahead of time to avoid the lines now 😉
Dane excuse my American lack of acknowledge, but what does the word stitch mean in that context of filling full?
I honestly couldn't even think of another word to explain it, so gave it a Google: A stitch in medical terms is known as “exercise-related transient abdominal pain”
Got it
@@DanegerAndStacey QUEENSTOWN DREAM HOUSE BUILDS DOWN SOUTH IN QUEENSTOWN NEW ZEALAND WHERE WE COME QUEENSTOWN TIME TOO BUILD MY DREAM HOUSE IN QUEENSTOWN NEW ZEALAND AN TIMARU NEW ZEALAND. CHRISTCHURCH NEW ZEALAND
NELSON NEW ZEALAND ETC.
If you don't mind me asking, what a rough figure on how much you guys now earn per month ? Thanks
We're always happy to share our living/monthly costs, but our earnings is a bit personal sorry 😀
so beautiful journey 😊 #indonesia'ssubscriber
Hope to be back in Indo soon!
We live here
Jealous!
5:03 they used bare hands to handle the burger
No Ben Lomond hike?
Actually never done it! NExt time
U gotta call fergburger and order, then you don't need to wait.
Best tip of the day!
OK where is Queenstown???
New Zealand
Stacey, what was that F word again lol
Nothing 🤣🤣
first
What did you think of the actual video? :)
I'm sorry but Fergburger is over-rated -also waited an hour , any pub in Aus/NZ (eg. Cadrona Hotel) you can get a better burger - just average, imo.
Fair enough. It's like a rite of passage in QT though - we really wanted to try it and glad we did 😊
@@DanegerAndStacey I definitely agree with that and I'm glad I did it
fergburger is overhyped shit. I can think of a million better spots.
It was fucking delicious. Over hyped tho, yeah for sure.
