5.00Beautiful drive and perfect way to get to Mt cook without a car. Van was comfortable and Hannah ( great driver and guide) made lots of stops for views and food along the way. Stayed 2 nights in Mt cook and took a return trip to Christchurch. Great way to relieve driving stress
Best tour ever.

5.00Words or photos can't capture how awesome this experience was. We drove through stunning landscapes, stopping at clay cliffs and Tasman hike (glaciers/lakes). Our guide, Cullan, was a Welsh gem—his upbeat energy and stories about the history of the areas made the trip made it come alive. There are a couple of options for different hikes, and depending on the weather, our driver always knew the best ones to recommend. He picked us up and dropped us off seamlessly, ensuring we had the best experience possible. Being part of a small group created a cozy atmosphere, and we had several chances to pause and appreciate the scenery. The glaciers in Tasman Valley were just a short, 15-minute walk to the lake, which felt just right, and the clay cliffs were only about 10 minutes away. This tour is perfect for anyone looking for adventure, and we just felt so lucky to have Cullan guiding us. His humorous and professionalism made the day so bloody fun. I can't recommend this tour enough; it’s truly a fantastic experience!
Nice drive

4.00Got us there in time to hike the Hooker Valley trail. Good driver and very personable. Be aware that if you are staying at the Hermitage it is a 45-60 minute walk after the hike. Our driver told us it was 20 minutes.
Excellent Service!

5.00I would like to compliment Pete for his excellent service! He is very helpful, did his home work to know who his guests are and got off his vehicle to help with luggage. His tour is very informative despite that he has to drive and speak at the same time. Good for someone like me who is new the the country! Overall excellent service!
