And on Wednesday, the fitness influencer, 31, revealed one of the highlights of her trip.

She described the experience as 'therapy' after also bungy jumping in Queenstown.

'Love a queen who is healing and livin!' one person wrote.
'Girl you nearly gave me a cardiac arrest lol so happy to see you doing you as you should,' a second commented.
'I hope any sad feelings you have, have dropped as fast as you did here,' another said.
It comes after Tammy revealed her heart is still 'aching' following her split from husband Matt as she mends her wounds in New Zealand.
Tammy fled Australia with her three children - Wolf, nine, Saskia, seven, and Posy, three - after news broke of their separation.
Earlier on Tuesday, she shared a gallery of images which revealed her post-breakup weight loss as she stays at the idyllic Lake Hayes Cottages in Queenstown.
'The most beautiful stay at @qtcottages,' she wrote in her caption as she posed in front of a private hot tub in her $995-per-night lakeside cottage.
'A blissful escape in the most stunning setting. Not without moments that ache... but healing is never linear and I'm so grateful to be here with my babiesss.'
Tammy has spent much of the last week documenting her stay in New Zealand following her split from former Love Island star Matt.
On Monday, she shared some photos from her trip to Queenstown and revealed visiting the area would become a new family tradition.
'Something so cosy and comforting about this place,' she wrote in her caption on Instagram.
'I think we're going to have to make this a yearly tradition. The start of something new.'
Matt and Tammy are now headed for divorce after just seven months of marriage, with the influencer jetting off to the South Island to recuperate in the wake of their split.
Tammy announced her shock split from Matt last month in an emotional video.
The former reality star also revealed the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram Story, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly.
'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began.
'Both of us have struggled with making this decision; however we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children.
'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support.
Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup.
'We appreciate everyone's support and space at this time as we navigate the split,' Matt concluded in his emotional post.

Tammy Hembrow slammed for wild act in New Zealand following Matt Zukowski split: 'Why would you put your life in danger?'
Tammy Hembrow has been criticised for bungee jumping in New Zealand following her split from Matt Zukowski. The fitness influencer, who is currently enjoying a trip to Queenstown with her three kids Wolf, nine, daughter Saskia, seven, and toddler Posy, three, took to Instagram on Wednesday to reveal a comment she received on her recent bungee jumping video. The 31-year-old could be seen wearing a cream-coloured sweater in the Instagram story as she walked on a treadmill and reflected on the criticism she copped regarding the wild act. 'I also saw someone - they weren't having a go or anything - but they were just like, "Why would you put your life in danger? Like you have kids."' She then went on to defend the act, saying that when she first had her children, she had put her love of adrenaline-boosting activities aside. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'When I had kids is when I stopped doing these kinds of things,' she said, adding: 'I just love it though.' Tammy assured fans that the company she went bungee jumping with in Queenstown - AJ Hackett Bungy - has been around for the 'longest time' and was 'super safe'. 'What's life if not to live, if you know what I mean. And I just love those adrenaline sort of things,' she said. 'I'm just gonna do it,' she shared, before adding that it's the 'perfect' time to try adventurous things, hinting at her recent split from Love Island star Matt. On Wednesday, Tammy revealed one of the highlights of her Kiwi trip: braving the world's largest swing between the mountains. She described the experience as 'therapy' following her marriage breakdown, while also revealing she bungee jumped. Tammy has been actively documenting her trip to New Zealand on social media after news broke of her split. The pair are headed for divorce after just seven months of marriage, and the social media star jetted off to the South Island to rest and recuperate in the wake of the announcement. 'A reminder of warmth, family, the magic of slowing down & the joy that lives in the littlest moments. The cosiest first night in NZ w my babies,' she wrote online Despite her heartache, Tammy has very much been in mum mode as she enjoys the idyllic getaway with her children. On Saturday, she posted a series of images and clips showing herself and her three children living it up in Queenstown. The family were getting into the festive spirit early, celebrating a whimsical Christmas in July. Tammy, rugged up in a fleecy jumper, with her midriff exposed, posed happily with her brood in front of a wintry scene dotted with festive candy canes and large, illuminated Christmas presents. Another photo showed the influencer posing in front of the same scene, hugging her three children tight. There was also time for some sweet shopping too, with another shot showing her youngsters staring in wonderment through a local Queenstown candy shop window. It wouldn't be a winter escape without some skiing, and Tammy also shared a short clip of her flaunting her style on the slopes. 'Christmas in July because who doesn't love a lil winter Christmas magic?' Tammy captioned the sweet snaps. 'When I tell you my soul NEEDED thissss. Forever my favourite holiday. 'A reminder of warmth, family, the magic of slowing down & the joy that lives in the littlest moments. The cosiest first night in NZ w my babies!!' Tammy announced her shock split from Matt a few weeks ago in an emotional video. Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup.

Is that Elvis hitting the Vegas slot machines? Michael Rababy's best photograph
As a kid, I would see a new casino every time I visited Vegas with my family. They were huge, multimillion dollar investments and even then, I knew that money had come from people losing it in machines. That's probably why I don't gamble. My dad only actually took us into a casino a couple of times, but I remember him believing he would win and my mother being more rational about it. Thinking about it now, it's absurd to take your kids to Vegas. My friend Rich remembers his parents checking him and his brother in at the Circus Circus hotel and casino – I think there was maybe a trampoline for children to jump on while the parents gambled. Afterwards, they'd hand in their ticket and pick the kids up again, like you do with your coat at the theatre. In my 20s, I'd go to Vegas with friends and, while they were gambling, I'd be documenting, running around and taking photos wherever I could. I began to realise that the gap between the absurd commercials we have in the US for casinos that promise the world, and the reality that I was seeing, was huge, almost to a comical degree. The photographs I'd been accumulating started to form a cohesive body of work, showing the contrast between the glamour in the marketing, and the actuality – which is more like going to the airport than a big night out in Monte Carlo. I took trips to places well known for their casinos, such as Reno, Nevada and Atlantic City, and whenever I was somewhere in the US that had one, I would seek it out. I tend to use a hit and run approach when photographing inside them. If I see security looking at me, or if other people are becoming aware of me, I'll just move on – there's always an embarrassment of riches to photograph, you could just go to the next table, or even the next casino. I also don't want to be perceived as someone who might be helping someone cheat, so I try to avoid any card games. I feel like I'm setting the stage for a story, and then you let your mind fill in the blanks. This photograph of an Elvis impersonator is an example of that – one image that says 1,000 words. It's pretty much the iconic image of my Casinoland book. Elvis was the king but there was a darker side to him too, which reflects the difference between the marketing of casinos and their reality. The photograph was taken in 2012 and it epitomises Vegas – not just because of Elvis, but also the lights and the colour. For some reason I feel more emotion when there's more saturation in an image. There's so much distraction going on here, but it all frames the king in the centre. He's kind of slumped back at the slot machine: you see him from the back but you know exactly who he is. Often players go into a particular mental state at the slot machines, where they seem to be aware of nothing else. They get locked into a zone where it's just them and the machine. I could often get pretty close, and was able to capture what was happening without them seeing me. You have to be careful though – people have come at me a couple of times. On one occasion, when I was still shooting on film, the sound of my Olympus woke a guy I'd just photographed slumped across a machine, and he really wanted to fight me. There was no reasoning with him. I managed to dodge into a club and amazingly the velvet rope kept him at bay – he wouldn't cross it. Nowadays I carry a small Fuji, but phone cameras have got good enough for me to use for stealth work. If I pick up my Nikon with its longer lens, it's like I'm about to point a gun at someone. In the age of social media, people are much more suspicious of a photographer's motives than they used to be, but I am a positive person and want the best for everybody. Someone described my work as documenting the fall of an empire in the deserts of Nevada, but I'm doing it with a sense of humour and a light touch. Born: Ohio, 1969Trained: 'Studied art history at the University of San Diego, spent many hours at the Museum of Photographic Arts bookstore in Balboa Park, and regularly snuck into film classes. I fell in love with photography while studying in Florence, Italy, in my second year of college and have been pretty much self-taught since then by looking at paintings in museums and watching great 'Henri Cartier-Bresson, Brassaï, Helen Levitt, Bill Owens, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Hunter S Thompson.'High point: 'As a Pollyanna optimist, I have to believe my high point has yet to happen – but having Edward Snowden share an image I created with The Yes Men stands out.'Low point: 'To survive as an artist you have to accept a barrage of rejection and move on.'Top tip: 'Chuck Close noted that photography is one of the easiest art forms to learn but the hardest to find your voice. I recommend learning as much craft as you can, but at some point you have to look deep inside yourself to carve your path.'
