Discover everything the beautiful Mount Cook and Tasman Glacier area has
to offer on a guided small-group full-day trip from Queenstown. Meet
your small group early in the morning and hop on the minivan which will
take you to the Tasman Glacier, stopping at some of the area\'s most
iconic sights along the way. Make your way through the Kawarau Gorge,
passing the Kawarau Suspension Bridge and of course the famous Roaring
Meg Lookout. Drive past sights such as the beautiful Lake Dunstan,
Lindis Pass, and the Cromwell wine region, stopping for photos along the
way, before arriving in Omarama. Here, spot Merino sheep and sample New
Zealand\'s creamiest chicken pie before continuing to Lake Pukaki, where
you can spot several Lord of the Rings filming locations. Next, get
ready for the adventure of a lifetime with a Tasman Glacier Heli Hike.
Combine the excitement of walking on New Zealand’s biggest glacier with
the stunning scenic helicopter fly-bys of New Zealand’s largest
mountain, Aoraki/Mt Cook. After flying to a remote part of the glacier,
follow your guide as they cut steps in the glacier, using skills handed
down from New Zealand\'s mountain pioneers. Finish your hike with
another spectacular scenic flight back to the base. After your flight,
stop for a quick photo stop in Mount Cook village before continuing to
High Country Salmon, a local salmon farm, where you can feed the fish
and taste some of the freshest salmon in New Zealand. Stop at Mrs. Jones
Suncrest Orchard to try or buy her delicious local fruit or real fruit
ice cream before returning to Queenstown with your group.
