With your own private local guide you're not going to believe the beauty and 'interesting' things you'll see on this tour. It's the people, the lakes, the bays, the sheep, cows and deer, that makes this tour so special... and SNOW!
This guided tour is probably our most popular tour. Departs 07:30 hrs
We'll leave early from you hotel and drive west having a look at Christchurch on our way out.
Through the rich countryside of Canterbury horticulture, dairy farms stretch for miles/Km.
Further inland we'll drop into Geraldine (yummy coffee from Barkers maybe) then on to Fairlie the service town of the Mc Kenzie Country. Further on we'll see the jaw dropping beauty which is Lake Tekapo and Lake Pukaki, there gorgeous turquoise waters flow from the glaciers of the Southern Alps.
