  • Get closer to New Zealand’s beautiful nature

    If you want to get closer to the breathtaking nature of New Zealand, then this trip is a must. All the spots we visited were nothing short of extraordinarily beautiful. We stopped at two lakes, had lunch at a restaurant where the Mount Cook view was amazing, and hiked around the Tasman glacier. The trip is definitely intense, so visitors should be prepared for approximately 7 hours drive and at least 1.5 hour walk. Still, we cannot recommend it enough. Parul/Anuj is very knowledgeable and kind. We had a great time with him.
