• Geraldine - Geraldine will be our first stop after departing from Christchurch for a refreshing break (Coffee/Toilet Break).
• Fairlie - Fairlie is a charming town situated in the South Island of New Zealand. It acts as a gateway for travelers heading to Mount Cook. The Fairlie Bakehouse is a famous bakery in New Zealand.
• Lake Tekapo - Lake Tekapo is one of the most picturesque destinations, located in the heart of the South Island. Known for its vibrant turquoise waters and stunning alpine scenery, it is a popular spot for nature lovers and adventurers. The best things to do in Tekapo include visiting the Church of the Good Shepherd, snapping a photo of the Sheepdog Memorial, soaking in the Tekapo Springs, and stargazing in the Dark Sky Reserve.
• Lake Pukaki - Lake Pukaki is another breathtaking glacial lake. It’s famous for its dazzling turquoise waters, panoramic views, scenic drives, and photography opportunities, as well as its proximity to Mount Cook, the highest peak in New Zealand. The views of Mt Cook are truly spectacular. The blue (turquoise) color is due to fine silt particles, or glacial flour, in the water.
• Tasman Glacier - This is the best spot for scenic photography of the Tasman Glacier viewpoint. Enjoy the easy-going 1-hour walk—don’t forget your camera! (The glacier is in the distance behind a lake). This is a major attraction to spend quality time while at Mt Cook.
• Hooker Valley Track - The track at dawn offers a view of the first rays of the sun creeping over the Southern Alps, including New Zealand’s highest peak, Aoraki/Mount Cook.
• Mt. Cook Village - At your final destination, enjoy lunch at a lovely hotel with a stunning location and views. The hotel is ideally positioned to offer excellent views of Mount Cook Glaciers. Mt Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand, helped Sir Edmund Hillary develop his climbing skills in preparation for the conquest of Everest. The Muller Hut Route is temporarily closed for day walkers. If you have booked to stay at Mueller Hut, you may still use the track and hut. Mount Cook Village is the key entry point to Aoraki Mount Cook National Park—several short walks and overnight hikes start from the village. It’s also well worth visiting for the pristine night sky and other activities such as boat tours and heli hikes to the Tasman Glacier and hiking the Hooker Valley track.
• Lake Tekapo - After lunch, get a coffee to keep you energetic on the way back! We stop briefly to use the toilets, and you can hopefully capture a gorgeous sunset photo of Lake Tekapo and the Church of the Good Shepherd.
• Geraldine - We stop briefly to use the toilets and buy coffee/water.
• Christchurch Botanic Gardens - We conclude this fantastic day with your drop-off in Christchurch. Looking forward to seeing you soon for your next adventure!
