Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Mount Cook: 3-Hour Tasman Glacier Helicopter Ride and Hike
Guest User2026-01-08
Once in a life experience. This activity might feel expense, but it's totally worth it. Kirsten our guide was wonderful and took great care of us and the group. We were able to get all the gear required for the hike and loved every moment of it. This is a must do activity!
Reviews: From Christchurch: Queenstown via Tekapo & Mt Cook Day Trip
Guest User2025-12-25
Our family of 4 had Diana and Joe as our guides. Diana picked us up in CHC and narrated the history of the sights we visited as she drove the van down to Mt Cooke. Very informative! We were going on to Queenstown so we switched to Joe's van, who was also very helpful and friendly. It was stress-free travel with everything taken care of, including bathroom breaks, prearranged lunch and snacks/water. Highly recommend!
Reviews: Franz Josef: 2.5 Hour Glacier Hike with Helicopter Transfer

The glacier hike was a highlight of our holiday. We always felt safe with our guide, even when grey clouds gathered. Thank you so much for this amazing experience!
Reviews: Franz Josef Glacier Heli-Hike
Guest User2024-10-02
I’m an avid traveller and this was easily one of the top three things I’ve ever experienced. The glacier was incredible. The staff and guide, Ruby, were so friendly and knowledgeable. I can’t recommend this experience enough.
Reviews: Christchurch to Franz Josef Tour with TranzAlpine (1 way)
Guest User2025-03-30
We took the TranzAlpine as part of our journey to Queenstown - breathtaking views all the way! Unfortunately, we faced a surprising 2-hour delay, which was frustrating. If time allows, consider adding Pancake Rocks near Greymouth/Hokitika to your itinerary (though it's a bit far). Still, the landscapes made it worthwhile for train lovers!
