This Is Real New Zealand ..Sights, Culture and the Great Outdoors!!
This DVD is very aptly named and I for one would highly recommend it... "The Ultimate DVD of New Zealand" is as it says...3 wonderful videos of New Zealand on 1 DVD...very good value for a start!! The first video is entitled "Naturally Its New Zealand"...this is a documentary that takes you through the country as a typical tour may be...I found the narration informative and the video footage excellent. The second video on the DVD is all about the Native Maori people on this country. This is presented by a well spoken historian and covers the history of these people. The third video is a superb example of New Zealand's great outdoor. "Great Walks of New Zealand - The Able Tasman National Park" follows a typical 5 day guide tour through this wonderful coastal track. I've walked this South Island track and can truly say that is it is a wonderful part of New Zealand. This DVD shows many aspects of New Zealand that I've found help aid my love for this country...Highly Recommended Viewing!!!
NOT an ultimate anything!
We were so diappointed in this "ultimate" DVD. Yes, there are three sections to it but the film is looped so that we saw the same shots numerous times - people running and jumping in the water, walkers, and the same stretch of beach to mention a few examples. The Great Walks was billed on the package as 43 minutes in length and our DVD player registered it at 40 minutes. This is an example of how the makers have tried to make it sound better than is was. The quality of the film wasn't the best either and we have a good player and TV. Some info was okay but there are other travelogs out there that are far better than this one. Not worth it.
2006 or 2009?
It's not clear if this DVD is 2006 or 2009 because in the product details it says 2006 and in the heading it says 2009. Confusion.
