Traveler reviews
Amazing trip and friendly guide.
Nice trip with plenty of nice attractions to let us take photos. Our guide Andy is super-friendly and keeps sharing his knowledge about anything we raised on the trip.
Fantastic tour to mount cook from Queensland to christchurch. Danny was fantastic driver and guide, best in Newzealand,
Fantastic Mount cook experience
Enjoyable experience
Our trip with small group of people to Mt Cook was really amazing, especially with our guide who was very knowledgable and he was entertaining us with stories about the places passing by us. The pickup was on time, so please be on time. The tour starts in the morning about 7-7.30am, taking you first to Lake Tekapo and will end in Mount Cook Village in the afternoon around 2-3pm, where they will drop you off at the Hermitage Hotel. In my case, I was dropped off at my accommodation at Mt Cook lodge, where I stayed for a night.
Good
Very efficient pick up and drive to Mt Cook with a few rest/photo stops along the way. And a good 3hours at Mt Cook where we could explore the hikes we wanted, depending on the level of difficulty we could/preferred. Driver guide Addy was lovely too.
Fabulous scenery with an informative and enthusiastic guide
Joel was an excellent and informative guide for our trip to Mount Cook village. He was enthusiastic and ensured that everyone was comfortable. The scenery was spectacular. We especially enjoyed the stops at Lake Tekapu and Tasman glacier.
