Reviews: Christchurch round-trip + Aoraki / Mount Cook + Lake Tekapo + Church of the Good Shepherd + Lake Pukaki 1-day tour
Guest User2026-01-06
It was a fantastic English-language day tour with friends from all over the world on board. The drivers were from Nepal, the US, and New Zealand. They were very friendly and professional. The journey was quite tiring, but Ye kept chatting with us, making us feel less lonely. Although the itinerary was rushed, it was still very fulfilling, and we visited all the places we wanted to see.★

Expensive for what you experience. Guides were extremely knowledgeable. Novice astronomers should do this. If you’ve seen Jupiter moons…maybe not.★

Reviews: Hobbiton Movie Set Small Group Tour from Auckland
Guest User2026-02-04
The Hobbiton Movie Set Tours were very wonderful trips and we had a great experience with all the movie set scenes. We enjoyed the bus ride from the pick up time to drop off very accommodating. SAME, the bus driver was great guy, very knowledgeable, and really informative about the areas.
