Not humid at all.
Daytime at most need windbreaker coz the wind can be chilly. But i am having sunny weather now. Not sure how cold it will be if it rains.
Night time slightly cooler. But just a jacket shld do



Okay. Thanks for the info.

Very sunny so no need to wear jacket during day time? Is it like sg not? Hot and humid. Like that wear shorts and tee can liao?

cause I see online the weather like 10+ 20 daily. doesn't seem like will be hot. so want to know since u there.

What's the temp like at night? or rather how it feels at night?
Just got back. Temperature at 6am is below 10. Very cold for me. Same for after 9pm. Daytime usually feels okay if youre in the sun or when youre hiking. Can wear t shirt and shorts. But i rather wear pants cause when the cold wind blows~ it's quite chilly. Was having lunch under shade in the open with just t shirt and pants, shaking towards the end.

Think depends on which area also. 2 weeks ago i flew from auckland to Christchurch. No snow anywhere. Very comfortable temperature.

Today flying back. Sunny day again.

just came back last week. weather turning warmer.

in the day t-shirt and jeans is fine. temp will be close to 20 degrees. just that the sun is very scorching and day is long (sky turns dark at 9pm). can really feel the heat on your skin, so prepare sun screen + sun glasses + cap, and have long sleeves to cover up if your skin is sensitive.

Am going south island for 17 days in 4 weeks time. Any car rental companies to recommend?
I got mine from apex.
For north island i rented a toyota corolla. Quite old and got spiderweb on side mirror. But used it without any problem
For south i took a camry. Newer model and quite clean. No problem also.

I got mine with go rental. Partly due to the go play card that you can get discount with activities all around the country. Price wise also one of the cheaper ones. New model car are available as well. No promo code that I know of.

Toyota Corolla with full insurance package near to 900 for about 14 days. car alone I think 500++. insurance 300+.

I paid $900+ for 14day for a 2.5l camry, with gps, no excess insurance and road side assistance. Seems like apex is cheaper
