It was the safest bus tour we’ve ever had! A huge thank you to our two drivers on the journey from Queenstown to Mt Cook, and to our transfer driver from Mt Cook to Christchurch. Your professionalism, safe driving, and friendly service made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. You made our holiday in New Zealand truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a safe, scenic, and enjoyable long-distance tour. Thank you for the wonderful experience! 😊

You have to be quick to take photos, otherwise you will have to get in the car and continue to the next attraction soon. The tour guide only speaks English, but don't worry, he will try his best to understand what you are talking about and then try to meet your needs.

The trip is fantastic, pity is that the coach from Christchurch to Queenstown voice system broke down and therefore our previous coach from Queenstown to Christchurch have to swap so the coach can go back to Christchurch to be repaired.

our tourist guide (also our driver) is a great, old-fashioned gentleman who brings us happiness during our trip. Mount Cook is like Everest in China: beautiful, marvelous, and sacred. In the of our journey, we arrived at Christchurch, 2nd largest city in NZ. It is a lovely experience

Review for: Day Tour from Queenstown to Christchurch

The coach was very spacious given there weren't many passengers on board. The driver only gave us minimal time (around 5 minutes) for photo-taking at the lookout of Mount Cook and the Church of the Good Sheperd even though it was listed as one of the highlights of the tour. I also did not know the coach was passing through the Lindis Pass until halfway through it (there was no photo stops). Overall, the experience was simiar to an intercity bus with occasional, short photo stops. Also, according to the drop-off address on Klook, it was an address at the Christchurch but in fact the driver dropped us off at the bus terminal in the city centre of Christchurch. Having said so, we had a ~2.5 hour lunch break at the Hermitage Hotel near Mount Cook - the hike right next to the hotel was absolutely breathtaking and stunning and it was definitely the real highlight of the tour. The hike is a MUST DO for sure. Other parts of the tour was mediocre.

Due to the heavy snowstorm, the itinerary was changed. We did not reach Mount Cook and Lake Tekapo, but only went straight to queenstown. What a pity! Although the company can change the itinerary to a later day, the itinerary has already been arranged and there is no room for changes.
