Day Three

• There is no trip that can be completed without a visit to the Crystal Mountain museum. When arriving at the museum, you will be treated to the world’s best crystal mine museums with the largest collection of rare and beautiful crystals that have been imported and sourced from mines throughout New Zealand and the rest of the world. It is not just an interesting visit but also an education experience because there is a large collection of fossils dating back thousands of years and discovered from locations around the globe. If the children prefer something a little more lighthearted after browsing the museum then the small theme park within the grounds has a small farm where you can great many varieties of animals such as Llamas, Emus, Peacocks, Lambs and you can guarantee your children will love saying hello to the animals. Prices to the museum are available by request and you contact Crystal Mountain on 64 9 833 5033. After all the excitement then why not stop off at Café on The Rock where you have a choice of delicious meals which are created by the fully qualified Brazilian chef and you can enjoy traditional cuisine which is of top quality and for the little ones, there is a separate menu. Bookings are essential for the restaurant and should you wish to reserve a table then you can book a table/s online at http://www.crystalmountain.co.nz/Bookings.aspx.

The Blue Pepper Blues restaurant in Dunedin is an excellent choice for top cuisine and a great atmosphere. Firstly, the wine list is worth mentioning because with a selection of over 40 wines and champagnes, there is always something to accompany an outstanding meal. For larger parties, there are set menus but for a typical three course meal, you will be treated to a wide and varied choice of entrees, main courses, desserts and post meal coffees.
