  All the places were covered but the driver was a bit unfriendly and targeted in his comments. Not enough time was given to enjoy each stop. Time was wasted on bakery, which could have been skipped or saved, and less time was given at lake Takepo, which we wanted to visit and explore. I would recommend this tour to other but not with the same operator

  Very friendly and informative guides, would definitely use again. Kept the trip interesting and fun and made it easy to be part of with door to door pick up and drop off. Learnt a lot about the region.

  Excellent way to go from Christchurch to Queenstown. Very comfortable ride with interesting stops. Glover and Xavier are great guides. Fairlie Bakehouse is amazing. Mt. Cook Hooker Valley trail has beautiful sceneries. The 10-minute High Mountains Salmon stop is a bit too short. Other than that, it is a great trip!

  The scenery in this tour is amazing and stunning, however there are many improvements to take note which you may want to convey to the tour operator. 1. The first part of tour, the tour guide (Gordon) is behaving like a driver without providing a clear explanation on the itinerary and he did not even bother to inform us to visit The church of the God Shepherd. At the end we do not have time to visit it. 2. Based on the itinerary we were supposed to have stop at lake Pukaki but the driver did not stop by the lake and just pass by it which is a huge disappointment to us and we feel it is a scam to us. 3. Based on the itinerary it was listed as given 3 hours to do Mt Cook trail walk, we picked the easier one (Tasman Glacier) to do but only given about 1 hour to finish it and at the end we did not have sufficient time to relax and enjoy the beautiful and magnificent view. What a shame!!! 4. Based on the itinerary we were supposed to stop by the Kawarau Suspension bridge but the second driver not even mention anything about it and bring us to eat ice cream?!!! We appreciate the impromptu suggestion by the second driver but we sign up a tour based on the itinerary therefore we very much appreciate a strict follow of the schedule and itinerary. 5. The second driver forgot our drop off hotel and went to the wrong one but instead he kept chitchatting with a bunch of female young tourists from Australia. We have signed up many tours with Viator before, this cheekykea tour is by far the worst we have encountered and the 2 drivers do not demonstrate the professionalism being a tour guide and this should be looked at seriously. We believe this will be our last tour with CheekyKea tour. Sincerely please do not spoil the good reputation of this beautiful New Zealand by these unprofessional local tour guides, personally opinion I will avoid cheekea travel or cheekeekiwi travel, do more research before you book!!!!! There are more professional local tours out there!
