Tourism operators say they are looking forward to hearing that Aussie twang in their midst again - especially over winter. Paul Button from Canopy Tours in Rotorua says while Kiwis have been out in support, business has dropped drastically since Waitangi Weekend and Darryl Wilson, from Wilsons Abel Tasman, says while it was a good summer with Kiwis exploring the national park, the return of Australians will be welcome. The pair spoke to Gyles Beckford.
