Itinerary

Lake Tekapo/ Church of the Good Shepherd (15mins) – This is where our adventure together begins. We will pick you up from your pre-selected pickup location and off we go.

Lake Pukaki (10mins) - This glacier fed lake is unique compared to its alpine partners. The colours can change from ice blue to a dark deep blue depending on the weather conditions. On a clear day enjoy undisturbed views right up to Mt Cook which appears to extend out of the head of the lake.

Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park (2.5hrs) – AND HERE WE ARE! Named after the famous explorer James Cook, Aoraki/Mt Cook is New Zealand’s highest peak. Once here you will have the choice to embark on either The Hooker Valley or The Tasman Glacier walk. If a flight overlooking the mountains is more your thing, we are happy to arrange Helicopter rides for you and the family to enjoy instead.

  • Hooker Valley (2.5-3hrs) The Hooker valley track is one of the highest rate day walks in New Zealand. It’s not hard to see why as you walk alongside an ice-covered cliff face (Listen carefully you may hear it moving) all the way to an ice filled lake with Mt Cook at its end.
  • Tasman Glacier (2.5 – 3hrs) This track leads through the glacier’s old terminal moraines, and there you will find amazing views of the glacier, river, and lake.
  • Mt Cook Information Centre (DOC) –
    You are more than welcome to take it all in by spending the day in the information Centre with a coffee. Learn the history of the national park, ask questions and just be in moment.
