We were given a tour of two farm stations showing the different type of farming for cattle and sheep. Unfortunately the sheep shearing demonstration did not take place due to work commitments

Reviews: Mount Cook Tasman Glacier Half-Day Tour [Helicopter + Glacier Walk + High Chance of Ice Cave Exploration]
Guest User2025-07-13
A truly unforgettable trip! Our guide, Rich, was incredibly responsible; his deep love for glaciers was evident in his explanations! The general itinerary was as follows: Arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes early. Weigh yourself and receive your wristbands. The guide gathers the group in the preparation room to explain important information. Change shoes and add layers (hats, glasses, and gloves are not provided). Place all personal belongings and loose items such as hats and glasses in the provided backpack. Take a helicopter to the glacier. Explore the glacier. Return by helicopter. The entire trip takes over 3 hours, with approximately 2 hours spent on the glacier.

Great wildlife centre! The kiwi room is so special, they are not enclosed in glass and were out and about when I visited. Getting to see the penguins was a highlight as well. Centrally located and a great rainy day activity as well, with the 48 hour entry allowing you to go back as many times as you want. Recommend a visit to see nz wildlife up close
