Din dag begynder med afhentning fra din centrale Christchurch indkvartering. Mød din venlige kiwi guide og andre rejsende i vores komfortable Mercedes Sprinter. Slap af med gratis WiFi og USB-opladning, da vi kører mod syd gennem Garden City, med kommentar til Christchurchs vartegn og jordskælv opsving historie.
Rejs gennem de vidtstrakte Canterbury Plains, et patchwork af landbrugsjord, der strækker sig til de sydlige alper. Din guide deler indsigt i New Zealands landbrugsarv, fra fårstationer til mejeriprodukter, vinmarker til dyrkning af afgrøder. Se landskabet forvandle, som vi nærmer foden af bakkerne og passerer gennem porten til Mackenzie regionen.
Kom til den legendariske Fairlie Bakehouse, hjemsted for nogle af New Zealands mest berømte kødpiger. Saml din forudbestilte frokost (inkluderet i turen) - steak og ost er en kiwi klassiker! Byen er især fotogenisk i efteråret, når træer, der omgiver gaderne, bliver levende orange, og Burkes Pass viser spektakulære efterårsfarver.

Fra slutningen af november til begyndelsen af januar eksploderer søen med farverige vilde lupiner. Gå ikke glip af den nærliggende Sheepdog Statue, der hylder de trofaste arbejdshunde i det høje land.
Stå ved kanten af Lake Pukaki, juvelen i Mackenzie regionen. Denne gletsjer-fodrede sø viser fascinerende nuancer af turkis og blå, skabt af "glacial mel" - fine stenpartikler jordet af gletsjere. På klare dage, vidne til den fantastiske syn af Aoraki Mount Cook stiger 3.724 meter over søens fjerne kyst, dens snedækkede top dominerer horisonten. Dette er et af New Zealands mest fotograferede synspunkter.

Views were fantastic! Lunch was tasty! Tom was a great guide, super informative. Small group made being a solo traveler very comfortable.
Fantastic experience - especially for someone that would like to explore South Island that's unable to drive. Simon, the tour guide, was knowledgeable and offered a wonderful commentary through the tour! The views were simply stunning, and I would recommend this tour.
It’s a long drive but we had plenty of stops and the views were worth it! Knowledgable commentary from our guide, the provided lunch and snacks were great.
This was an amazing one-day tour, taking us to see the amazing sights of Lake Tekapo and Mount Cook. Simon is an amazing tour guide, providing helpful explanations injected with humor.
Tour guide is knowledgeable and friendly. Although half of trip was spent on coach, we still got couple of stops along the way just for us to stretch, going to toilet and getting drinks. Lunch was good as well.
Simon was a personable, friendly, and knowledgeable guide for our day trip to Lake Tekapo and Mt. Cook. Even though he grew up in the area and has seen these sights countless times, he had all the enthusiasm and wonder we did in seeing the stunning sights for the first time! He paced out the day very well, expertly navigated the roads with his safe driving, and accommodated the group so we could truly enjoy every stop along the way. The quick stop at Fairlie Bakehouse was worthwhile - delicious pies and prepared lunch before our hike! We appreciated his knowledge of the history and current events of Aotearoa New Zealand as well as his respect for the Māori people and culture. Thank you Simon!
Our trip to Mount Cook and Lake Tekapo was a bit of a journey of contrasts. Simon was an incredibly safe and patient driver, and he did a great job keeping the group together. The food provided was absolutely incredible—truly a standout part of the day! We also loved the hike to the glacier; the scenery was breathtaking. However, due to unexpected roadworks, we arrived late and had to rush through the walk. We would have definitely appreciated more time to spend at Mt. Cook to fully soak in the views. While Simon was professional, we would have also enjoyed a bit more commentary and local information during the drive.
We did the Mount Cook & Lake Tekapo Day Tour from Christchurch and it was great fun! The pickups were on time, and we had a very nice tour guide who gave us a lot of informative and insightful commentary through the way, and we learnt so much, which we would have ofherwise missed out on had we driven the route ourselves. Learning about places and sights through the lens of a storyteller and nuggets of history, facts and culture makes it all the more worthwhile. The day didn’t feel rushed at all, and we got ample time to do hikes, take pictures, have restroom breaks and also got some time to pick up quick shopping for souvenirs along the way. Lunch was Fairlie was so hearty and delicious! Our guide was extremely safe with his driving and made us all feel very comfortable. It was a long day of driving, guiding, keeping the group together, coordinating and organising our sightseeing - highly commendable how Cheeky Kea puts it altogether. We’ve done tours with them before and I completely trust them with a good experience
We very much enjoyed the day. Simon was a great driver and guide. He answered a ton of questions for me and I learned a lot about NZ! The snacks and lunches were really good and the pies at Fairlie Bakehouse were wonderful! We received a water with the snacks and I would have appreciated another water at lunch at least. The views were stunning! The vehicle was a Ford and not a Mercedes that was advertised in Trip Advisor. The seats were a little uncomfortable and at times the road noise was loud. The time crunch to get some of our group to Queenstown controlled the time at stops etc. If it were not for that, I would have liked to stop for some extra photos along the way. A suggestion would be to encourage all to use the toilets at the stop before Mt. Cook despite the cost (1.5/2 dollars) since the toilets at Mt Cook has a long line. There are only 2 anyway and a child locked one of them on the way out so there was only 1 usable toilet. Since time is limited at Mt Cook and you can afford it, we suggest staying a night at the Hermitage Hotel to give extra time in the area and returning the next day.
Overall the day tour was fantasic. Very helpful and knowledgeable driver. The lunch and snack provided was better than expected. Nice to be able to spend time at the mt cook national park
