Customer Reviews
A great day filled with beautiful vistas.
My wife and I loved the guided tour to Arthur's Pass! New Zealand has seemingly endless mountain views and all the wonderful streams, waterfalls, forests and lakes to go with them. We really liked our guide Dave who knew lots of cool places to take us with unique sights and had lots of facts and stories about them all. In addition, he answered all kinds of questions we had on New Zealand in general and really gave us a taste of what life is like in this beautiful country. So in addition to a great day of hikes he helped us connect the day with the other areas we had been to on our trip..
