Mackenzie District Tururi

După ce am ajuns la punctul de observare a stelelor, personalul a rugat pe fiecare membru să se întindă pe un șezlong și ne-a dat o pătură groasă (temperatura era de doar câteva grade, foarte frig). Prima parte a fost să privim cu ochiul liber, iar personalul, în timp ce arăta spre cer cu un indicator astronomic cu laser, ne explica cunoștințe de astronomie. După ce am privit cu ochiul liber, am folosit telescoape astronomice 🔭 pentru a observa stelele. Erau două telescoape, iar majoritatea imaginilor din fotografii au fost făcute cu cel mic (mic, dar foarte puternic). Am văzut dungile lui Jupiter, marea de stele a Căii Lactee, un prim-plan delicat al Lunii și punctele de stele din jurul Crucii Sudului, printre altele, și am fost cu adevărat emoționat până la lacrimi. Să le vezi pe viu este de nenumărate ori mai frumos decât în fotografii, pentru că simți că sunt vii, că se mișcă, că înfloresc ⭐ Pe parcurs, personalul ne-a oferit fiecăruia o cană de ciocolată caldă și a făcut fotografii fiecărui membru, iar la final ne-am adunat în jurul unui foc de tabără pentru a prăji bezele 🍡. Am încheiat călătoria mea de observare a stelelor pe deplin mulțumit ~ 🤗

The starry sky is beautiful and the weather isn't too cold. I'd highly recommend visiting Tekapo. However, later on the clouds got a bit thick and the moon was a bit bright, which affected the stars. I suggest staying two nights, as you'll have a better chance of seeing the stars.

Programul de observare a stelelor a fost foarte distractiv și interesant. Ghidul a fost amabil și plin de energie. Am mers cu autobuzul până la un loc de observare a stelelor, iar când am privit în sus, cerul era plin de stele. A fost foarte frumos.

My family and I had a wonderful time throughout the 13 hour van ride from Christchurch to Queenstown. The cost of the tour is well worth it, since we were able to enjoy all the sights and stops we made. The snacks and lunch were also delicious and filling. Rosie picked us up from our hotel and took us to Lake Tekapo and Mt Cook, while Abbie drove us from Mt Cook to High Country Salmon Farm and then to our Queenstown accommodation. The ride itself felt comfortable and safe. There were 3 vacant seats in Rosie's van, while Abbie's was full with 16 people inside. This was a really fun way to get around. Will definitely recommend Cheeky Kiwi to friends and family!

The lovely tour that I've ever got! He explain everything and at the end of the trip, he gave us a souvenir ❤️❤️ Thank you! and he provide us a lunch Thank you so much

it is amazing and unforgettable helicopter ride. we have booked 3 times but all has been cancelled due to weather started from Fox glacier, Queenstown and finally at Mount Cook we made it happen. thanks Klook and it is easy to book. high recommended to those interested.

We booked our flight through Klook, including the pick-up and drop-off service at the Hermitage Hotel, and received confirmation directly from INFLITE. The day before our trip, we sent an email to reconfirm the schedule and they replied swiftly. We were assigned a ski plane to the Tasman Glacier and a helicopter for the return. Walking on the glacier with such stunning views was an amazing experience. Luckily, the weather was great and it wasn't too cold. The pilots were very kind and helpful, even taking many photos for us. This is highly recommended if you are staying at Mt. Cook; it’s a breathtaking way to enjoy the mountain scenery!

Recomand cu căldură tuturor. Întregul zbor a fost distractiv, iar peisajul este uimitor de la început până la sfârșit. Felicitări căpitanului Nigel pentru zborul extrem de lin, sunteți un pilot extraordinar. De asemenea, întregului echipaj de la The Helicopter Line pentru serviciile excelente. Voi reveni.

Despite the cloudy weather, I still enjoyed the tour. The scenery was beautiful and the guide was friendly, professional, and explained everything clearly. The transportation was comfortable and well organized. Unfortunately, Mt Cook and the Tasman Glacier were mostly covered by clouds during my visit, so I couldn’t fully appreciate the views. I would love to come back on a sunny day to experience the amazing landscapes again. Overall, it was a great trip and good value for money.
