Great Tour and Guide

Our tour guide Paul was a legend. He was passionate and knowledgable about the tour, the land and the people as he drove us from Queenstown to Mt Cook. He even gave some bonus Māori language lessons. It was a brilliant and fun experience

Shu is the best tour leader

Shu was a great tour leader. I love her and i wish her all the best with her bubba. I think she is amazing tour guide very enthusiastic and very accommodating to everyone picking and dropping us to our hotel. That was the main concern for me because we’re new in the area but she made the trip safe to everyone and gaving us information of the beautiful scenery. Till next time cheeky kiwi. Much love from Brisbane from - Lisa and Ross

Gorgeous views

Awesome tour and great guide. Beautiful vistas of Mt Cook, Tasman Glacier and gorgeous views of gorges, rivers and valleys along the way. Bring a comfortable pair of hiking shoes/boots for the trails. Our guide, Jason, sprinkled fun facts and was very patient with the group. Thanks for the 80s throwback music playlist Jason!

TOUR

This was the best tour that I booked via Klook. I had minimal expectations as I know Klook tours are very squeezed and tour guides are just okay. But SHU was very friendly and very accomodating to all of us. She gives ample time for us to explore each places that’s part of the tour. This was my most satisfied tour ever! More powers to you Shu!

Lovely driver

The tour guide/driver was lovely. Even though the road was closed due to the weather, the refund was processed promptly, and we still enjoyed some lovely stops along the way.
