Mt Cook is far away from Christchurch, so we spent majority of the time driving there and back. On board there were WiFi, AC, and we could charge our phones. Our guide was Will, he was awesome. He was very accommodating, kept everything on time so we had no delays and could experience everything that was included in the tour. He was also giving interesting facts. We had plenty of bathroom breaks and could eat lunch on board. The tour included stops at the lakes Tekapo (twice), Pukaki. The final destination was the Hooker Valley at Mt Cook. From there we could choose from 3 options. I chose the hike through the Hooker Valley. It is a 10 km hike. Unfortunately I could not finish the hike but the valley is beautiful, so I still could enjoy the hike and made plenty photos of the Mt Cook and the valley. We had 3 hours to spend at the Mt Cook. The ride in the van was relaxing.
