Great Trip with Cheeky Kiwi

Our driver Joe had done a great hosting and driving us around. I liked the sightseeing stops and the coffee/salmon/ice cream stops. My experience can't be any better. Lovely way to enjoy my journey! Highly recommended to travel with Cheeky Kiwi!

Fun tour from Mt Cook to Queenstown

I had a great time on the afternoon tour from Mt Cook to Queenstown. Sonya was the best guide and had the coolest stories and facts to share. Definitely a fun ride!

Better safe than sorry ;)

The tour guide was very friendly and kind. She helped me book my trip back from Mt. Cook to Queenstown, even though I had trouble booking it online. She enthusiastically drove us to many hikes around the Mt. Cook area and pointed out which ones were worth visiting. She was also kind enough to drop me off at my hostel. I’m looking forward to watching her movie. It was amazing to hear her story, moving from Russia and transitioning from being a farmer to becoming a tour guide. Unfortunately, I forgot her name, I’m not very good with names, but I sincerely wish her all the best in life.

The best ride!

Very comfortable ride and great commentary about the areas. The photo opportunity stops and rest breaks were nice and evenly spaced. The only downside was the I had to take another vendor from Christchurch TO Mt. Cook (I traveled one way from Christchurch to Queenstown, with an overnight stop in Mt Cook village)!

Wonderful tour

Tour guide Marry was excellent at storytelling. During the journey, she shared the story of Matakauri, which was truly touching. She also provided information about Arrowtown and Queenstown, and gave informative answers to our questions about possums. The tour was well-organised and everything ran on time.

Great Service

Great service but pricy. Space is cramped but there's Wi-Fi. Drivers are fantastic. Several stops along the way for snacks, drinks, and restroom break.
