Jorge was a great guide and was very informative and affable. Overall we enjoyed the trip however, one of the highlights of this trip when booking was to visit the Alpaca farm, Jorge was not aware that we needed to book a tour and therefore when we arrive we couldn’t get in. The tour company should add in the description that everything that needs a ticket needs to be pre booked and that the tour doesn’t follow the the Itinery as shown in booking description but is very much up to the group or recommendation.
Stunning Scenery & Great Service

Arthur’s Pass is absolutely stunning, offering breathtaking scenery, a relaxing atmosphere, and amazing wildlife, along with beautiful nature and waterfalls. The drive from Christchurch is quite short, and the many sightseeing stops along the way make the journey even more enjoyable. Dave did an excellent job and was very helpful throughout the excursion.

Everything went smoothly and exactly as planned. Tom was a fantastic guide—very knowledgeable and friendly. He shared great local stories and interesting Christchurch earthquake history throughout the journey. The van was clean and comfortable, and the whole day was perfectly organised to enjoy the stunning views.
