Reviews: New Zealand Lake Tekapo 90-minute Chameleon Stargazing Tour for 14 People with Professional Telescope
Guest User2025-11-13
It was a fantastic experience. The teacher's explanations were very engaging, and I learned a lot. I learned how to identify the Southern Cross, Alpha Beta Centauri, and that the brightest star is Sirius. Gazing at the starry sky and listening to the explanations, and afterwards enjoying hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows, plus a group photo under the stars, it was all unforgettable.
Reviews: Queenstown to Christchurch via Mt Cook One-Way Tour
Guest User2025-11-11
Great tour company! They go above and beyond with everything they do! Kristina was very knowledgeable about any topics New Zealand, and a great driver too. We had time to do hiking around Mt. Cook, and foremost Kristina went out of her way to get my bag that I left on one of the stops. Huge favour that saved my vacation! Transfer went smooth, everyone was delivered to the destination hotels, even though they had to change the driver for the last couple of stops. Great service! Thanks guys!
Reviews: Lake Tekapo: Stargazing Experience at Cowan's Observatory
Guest User2025-12-25
We had an amazing experience with very informative explanations on each star by a kind & motivated guide!!! Thank you very much! I'm sure we will recommend it to others. One thing I should note here is that it is better to clarify both beginning time & date of midnight tour (which starts from 0:00 AM). We were going to join 21 December midnight tour (which starts from 22 December 0:00AM), but we got confused about start time & date when we made booking because the web-page just said "be careful with the start time&date" (but it did not clarify the date). In the remind email, we can find the date information, but it should be included in the booking page.
Reviews: Lake Tekapo: 50-Minute Mount Cook and Beyond Scenic Flight
Guest User2025-12-20
What an amazing trip. We really appreciated how much effort the team went to, to take advantage of the weather and get a flight out ! Thank you ! The flight itself was incredible. Justin was a brilliant pilot - he ensured we all had an incredible experience - and the scenery was spectacular. Truly never going to forget this.

The pick-up was on time, the itinerary was smooth, the tour guide was interesting, Mount Cook was beautiful, Lake Tekapo was beautiful, it was a pity that the booked helicopter was cancelled, but the day was still very enjoyable!
