This is an excellent tour, and highly recommended. Yes, it’s a long day, but our guide, Dan, gave us excellent commentary, kept us on schedule so we didn’t miss anything, but didn’t make us feel rushed. The van was comfortable, the packed lunch from Fairlie Bakery was delicious, and the bag of extra snacks was more than adequate to keep hunger at bay. We were blessed with wonderful weather, and cloudless skies, so enjoyed our day immensely. Must do!

The whole area surrounding Mt Cook is amazing. Many different colors, deep blue lakes, glorious mountains.

Mt Cook and the lakes are absolutely beautiful! I hiked the Hooker Valley trail and it’s well worth the trip. Beautiful place to visit. Joseph, our driver/guide was very good and informative. Long day but well worth it.

The tour was very rushed. The itinerary for Mount Cook stated that we will be there for 2.5 hours. However, the tour guide asked us to return in 2 hours itself given that the Hooker valley hike requires time. I had to rush back and ran all the way while returning from my hike.
