Activity itinerary

Lake Tekapo (Pass by)

Your tour starts at Lake Tekapo

Lake Pukaki (Pass by)

As we pass the striking blue canals of the Mackenzie High Country we descend upon Lake Pukaki and get our first glimpses of Mt Cook towering the landscape at the far end of the lake.

Aoraki Mount Cook National Park (Te Wahipounamu)

While in the national park you have 2 hours free time to enjoy free walks/hikes or one of the extra optional activities. Some of our recommendations include: Scenic flights – see the region from the air and land on the Tasmin Glacier or The Tasman Lookout Hike, Whatever you have decided to do, we will pick you up and drop you off where you need to go and make sure you are well looked after.

High Country Salmon

Stop at High Country Salmon to feed the fish and sample some of the freshest salmon in the country, a delicious highlight of your journey.

Lindis Pass

Climbing in altitude, Lindis Pass has amazing views down through the valley. Being one of only three alpine roads through the otherwise impassable Southern Alps, we stop at the Lindis Pass lookout 971m above sea level for an essential photo.

Jackson Orchards

Pause near Cromwell for the chance to try or buy seasonal local fruit and real fruit ice cream.

Kawarau Suspension Bridge (Pass by)

Drive through the dramatic Kawarau Gorge, where you’ll spot the famous suspension bridge and roaring Meg Lookout before arriving in Queenstown.

Queenstown (Pass by)

We have arrived at our destination. As we enter this alpine town nestled between Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding mountains we will point out some of the area's highlights before dropping you off at your central accommodation.
