I was thinking maybe just stopping by Auckland for 2 days or so and taking a trip to Waitomo Caves, or something for a different experience.
Having been to both countries and both fjords, I would say they are equally beautiful. In general, the natural beauty of New Zealand's South Island can be compared to the natural beauty of Norway's West Country. Both are stunningly pretty and well worth a visit.
