Fox glacier is tiny (2 blocks) but although touristy it is less so than the bigger Franz Josef glacier town 30 km away. I found out that the Minnehaha walk is s great place to see glow worms after dark, right at the edge of town.

We tried the alex knob hike but it was too foggy to see anything that day. Went to the kiwi cennter and loved every minute.

Our trip to Queenstown was changed as the pass was closed. So we had to make an twelve hour trip instead of four.

Best sky diving in the world (Fox Skydive), especially for the price. A must do for all those willing to experience the exhilarating jump and spectacular views. You won't be disappointed. Don't waste your money jumping anywhere else in the country.
