Itinerario
Ubicado en la espectacular Crown Range Road entre Queenstown y Wānaka, el Cardrona Hotel es uno de los hoteles más antiguos y emblemáticos de Nueva Zelanda. Su encanto rústico, su espectacular entorno montañoso y su rica historia lo convierten en una visita obligada en Central Otago.
Caminaremos hasta la orilla del lago para tomar esa foto icónica del árbol Wānaka. Sumérjase en la belleza de este enorme lago, con el monte Aspiring y los Alpes del Sur como telón de fondo, un paraíso para los fotógrafos.
Cruzando el caudaloso río Clutha, nos dirigiremos hacia el oeste pasando por el impresionante lago Hāwea. Nos detendremos para tomar una foto rápida en un mirador entre el lago Wānaka y el lago Hāwea.
Ubicadas en el Parque Nacional Mt Aspiring, las Blue Pools, acertadamente llamadas, son una visita obligada. Este sencillo viaje de ida y vuelta de 3 km bien vale la pena para presenciar las impresionantes aguas azules del río Makarora.
Una caminata fácil de 5 minutos lo recompensará con una vista espectacular de Thunder Creek Falls. Esta cascada de 28 metros, un remanente de lo que alguna vez fue un gran glaciar, brota de un valle colgante.
Mientras nos dirigimos hacia el norte a lo largo de la frontera donde la antigua selva tropical se encuentra con el océano, nos detendremos en Ship Creek. Clava los dedos de los pies en la arena y siente el choque de las implacables olas del mar de Tasmania. Explore las dunas a través de un sencillo sendero para caminar de 1 km.
Aquí, la espesa selva tropical nativa se encuentra con el océano abierto aparentemente interminable. ¡Bruce Bay realmente muestra lo mejor de la costa oeste!
Seguimos con el sueño de todo fotógrafo: el lago Matheson. En un día tranquilo, puedes capturar el Monte Cook reflejado elegantemente en este pintoresco lago. Esta sencilla caminata te recompensará con impresionantes vistas de los Alpes del Sur.

This tour was fabulous, thanks to a great guide, Hanna. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, personable and cheerful. Everything you could want in a tour guide and more. She went above and beyond to inform us all about the history and relevance of every stop of the tour, as well as most of what we were driving past. Our 12 hour tour, from Queenstown to Franz Josef, went by in a flash and we even managed around 16000 steps at the various stops along the way. Plenty of comfort stops, a great lunch at the Hard Antler, in Haast, just added to the value of this tour. Thanks Hanna, and Cheeky Kiwi.. it was a great day.
Thank you for your lovely words about Hanna. She loves to take people on her trips and share our beautiful coastline along the West Coast. It is a world of it's own. We are glad you enjoyed your trip so much.
Great way to transit with intentional sightseeing along the way. Good, quick hits and none of the stops feel overly long.
Thank you for your feedback. That trip is very scenic and it sounds like you enjoyed it. We hope you will travel with us again one day.
Great tour, great guide and a back office that solved all challenges. They know what they are doing and they are good at it ☺️.
We love the kind guide/driver. We like all spots to visit
It was amazing! The nature was impressive even in a rain. The car was comfortable and I really feel myself good with our guide Hannah who was very smart and passionate with her work. She was really interested in telling and sharing with us more about Nzee's animals and plants, nature and it all. I really liked Cheeky kiwi company and will recommended it to all.
We were just 2 people so it was basically a private tour and it was awesome! Udi came with us on the walks pointed out different plants and showed us cool things such as blue mushrooms. He also told us a lot about New Zealand’s history and culture and I could fire away all my questions. The scenery was just gorgeous and we saw some breathtaking places. My personal favorite was our walk at Ship Creek and generally crossing the Alps and entering this lush and dense vegetation! To sum it up: I saw beautiful places, I learned a lot about New Zealand, and we had a lot of laughs on the trip :)
Martin was knowledgeable and he took us to plenty of places. Lunch is included and it’s a good value for money as we stopped by plenty of places. The fee for this tour is only a hundred dollars more than the intercity bus but you get to see places that you wouldn’t normally see. We were lucky to have a good weather and had a glimpse of the glacier in Fox Glove
Wonderful trip, amazing landscapes, very well organized, and Shura is a really nice and friendly driver.
Hanna was a wonderfully enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and personable guide for our day trip to Franz Joseph! She expertly paced our day so we could take in all the dynamic and stunning sights along the way: lakes, mountains, forests, beaches, waterfalls, and glaciers! Hanna did this all while safely driving and traversing the roads. She made a long day feel so memorable and worthwhile with her easygoing nature, extensive knowledge of New Zealand and deep respect for the Māori people and culture. Thank you Hanna!
Thank you for your lovely feedback about Hanna. We will be sure to let her know. We are so pleased you enjoyed your trip through a very spectacular part of our country. Our guides love to share this with our visitors. Thank you for choosing Cheeky Kiwi for your travel.
Fantastic, intimate tour taking in lots of incredible sights on the road between Queenstown and Franz Josef. Colin was a wonderful guide, the lunch was spot on at Hard Antler in Haast (I can recommend the venison burger) and the complimentary WiFi on the minibus was a nice touch. Cheeky Kiwi Travel really do offer a more personalised experience than most and utilising smaller transport means they can get to places the larger buses can’t access. Also, do not pass on the freshly-baked cheese scones at the Cardrona Hotel for breakfast!
So nice that you have taken the time to mention our hard working partners in the food business. they do indeed do great food. It sounds like you had a great trip with Colin and we will pass on your kind comments to him. Thank you for travelling with us.
