Reviews: New Zealand Lake Tekapo 90-minute Chameleon Stargazing Tour for 14 People with Professional Telescope
Guest User2025-11-13
It was a fantastic experience. The teacher's explanations were very engaging, and I learned a lot. I learned how to identify the Southern Cross, Alpha Beta Centauri, and that the brightest star is Sirius. Gazing at the starry sky and listening to the explanations, and afterwards enjoying hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows, plus a group photo under the stars, it was all unforgettable.★

Reviews: Christchurch round-trip + Aoraki / Mount Cook + Lake Tekapo + Church of the Good Shepherd + Lake Pukaki 1-day tour
Guest User2026-01-06
It was a fantastic English-language day tour with friends from all over the world on board. The drivers were from Nepal, the US, and New Zealand. They were very friendly and professional. The journey was quite tiring, but Ye kept chatting with us, making us feel less lonely. Although the itinerary was rushed, it was still very fulfilling, and we visited all the places we wanted to see.★

Reviews: Mount Cook Day tour from Christchurch to Queenstown
Guest User2023-12-20
Stuart the driver very informative. Like commentary which tell me all about what we see. However very little time to do anything up at Mt Cook before having to take the long journey back to Christchurch. About
