Great tour and connect Dunedin and Te Anau in a day - 很有效率很方便地從Dunedin移動到Te Anau 路上的景點也都很不錯。Jason幫我們找到了很多野生動物並且提供了景點的介紹,也介紹了沿途的景致風光。一天內包含觀光和移動到下個點實在很棒,甚至我還可以參加Te Anau晚上的螢火蟲洞tour和隔天的米佛峽灣tour 對非自駕是很有效率的移動方式

Awesome - Ask for Jason - This was the best day I have spent in New Zealand in the 3 weeks I have been here. This is a new trip in its infancy and I was the only person on it but it wasn’t cancelled. My driver Jason was so knowledgeable and entertaining. The waterfall on the schedule was inaccessible because of fallen trees but Jason took me to a different one, in fact two very close together. When he knew that my only reason for wanting to go to Invercargill was to go further south than I had been before he went one better and took me to Slope Point which is the most southerly spot on the South Island. I hope that the company can incorporate this into future trips because it really did tick a box. All the other stops were just as memorable with lots of photo opportunities. There would have been many more I’m sure apart from the awful weather. 11 hours went by so quickly. I thoroughly recommend this trip and if you have a choice of dates ask for Jason.

Fantastic Trip - Amazing trip, the tour guide was so informative and made the trip so enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to explore a remote and lesser known area of the South Island.
