Stunning Views and Breathtaking Turquoise water

Published on Jul, 2024

I recently took a day trip with my friends to Mt Cook, and it was an incredible experience. The drive there offers stunning views, especially of the turquoise waters of Lake Pukaki. Once at Mt Cook, we enjoyed a scenic walk on Hooker Valley Track, which is great for all ages. Our guide provided a bunch of snacks which was great as we had it at Glacier Lake surrounded by breathtaking views of glaciers. The car was comfortable and organized. Our guide RV took beautiful pictures of us. Highly recommend! Just a small tip to travelers that wear comfortable shoes if you are keen for hike and layer of clothes due to weather.

Private tour experience was excellent

Published on Mar, 2024

Private tour experience was wonderful! It's always fantastic when a knowledgeable guide can enhance your trip and take care of you throughout the journey.
