    Mt Cook Day Trip

    Such beautiful place. The tour took us to many stops- Laku Pukaki, Lindis Pass, etc. Then we had the time to take Hooker Valley Track which took around 3 hours. The day was full of exciting and beautiful sceneries. Overall, this tour is highly recommended if you want to experience NZ.

    Dear Ric Jedelle Sorry to hear but this is due to bad weather which is beyond our control. We have already informed you to shift your tour. Hope you will enjoy your rest of the tour to Queenstown.
