Absolutely. And to be fair, this is in comparison to other attractions I visited while in NZ. It was perfectly in line with what you would expect from somewhere in the USA. I think I saw a single gift shop during my entire time on the South Island, and the ones on the North Island seemed shockingly reasonable.

Sounds like it was still worth the trip. If I ever end up on that side of the world, I’ll do the tour, but pack a lunch. Thanks for the information!
