Not sure this was worth it...it was a very long day to see some beautiful scenery which we had seen all over New Zealand. Although Mt Cook is historically significant, and beautiful, once you've seen the Rocky Mountains in Canada, it pales in comparison (I know I shouldn't compare)....I'll repeat: it's a very long day with most time spent on a coach bus.…

We did the full day trip last month with driver Stuart on a GreatSights bus. It was a well-paced day with lots of stops at places with good travel food, clean toilets and/or photo opportunities. Stuart quietly explained the landscape & told stories that highlighted an aspect of places all along the journey. He pointed out glaciation evidence, infrastructure projects and historically important locations. We heard about famous people & animals who hailed from places along the route, eg Rutherford the physicist, Shrek the sheep and many more. He touched on issues such as the politics of the fur trade, the growth of the dairying industry & explained what we were looking at as we cruised comfortably in the well appointed bus. A thoroughly enjoyable day.…

We enjoyed our tour to the Waitomo Caves and Rotorua. To see all the highlights makes for a long day so therefore expect to be tired. The gloworms in the caves and the trip on the boat are something that will never be forgotten and Rotorua is a very well kept town. The geysers are spectacular. If you have never seen sheep shearing then this will be of interest. Seeing the haka performed by Maoris was also a highlight. We would recommend this tour especially if you have a tight itinerary.…
