Glenorchy solo trip - It's a worry-free trip. There are small stories to listen along the way, which enriches the experience of the trip. The driver is really kind, thanks a lot.

Nice short trip to Glenorchy - This was a nice short trip along a beautiful scenic route. The mist on the lake over the mountains was very picturesque. I also love the commentary about the Maori history

Touring Glenorchy - It was a beautiful drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy. This is a very easy trip that does not involve any exertion if one is unable to walk much. Views of the lake are incredible. Glenorchy is just a small town. Has some nice views if you walk to the wharf area. Other than that, unless you want to do the hike, finding lunch there is about it. We did enjoy the day.

Was not picked up. Very bad communication. I don’t recommend. - I was at the pick-up point 10 mins before the tour and I went around looking at vehicles but did not see any with “Queenstown expeditions”. The closest I could find was a Queenstown taxi. My sister who had an NZ number tried calling for me but lines were all busy. I didn’t see any signage or anyone looking around for tour participants. But they insisted the vehicle was there and would not allow to give me a refund. Definitely do not recommend when they are so bad at communication and they don’t give you any idea where at the bus stop or what the vehicle looks like and doesn’t actively look for you.

Tour didn't show-up :( - Unfortunately I can't properly review this tour, as they never showed up :( I totally understand things can happen, but it would've been great to have some communication - even just an email if international numbers are an issue. Tripadvisor was great though in their quick response and getting a refund.

Terrible - The bus that took to Glenrorchy was very hot with air-conditioning not working. I made our family very exhausted. Why don't the operators check if the bus is in condition or not before onboarding paid customers?
