Nestled at the heart of New Zealand’s Southern Alps (Kā Tiritiri o te Moana), Arthur’s Pass is steeped in history. Connecting the east and west coasts of Kā Tiritiri o te Moana, the route was originally established by iwi to trade pounamu (greenstone) before it became known to surveyors such as Arthur Dudley Dobson who would later colonise its status in 1864. Home of the world’s only truly alpine parrot and our namesake, the Kea, the now National Park’s dramatic terrain, powerful waterfalls, unique fauna, native Beech forest, and engineering feats make it a popular destination for hikers and sightseers alike.
You will be driven in comfort by our modern, comfortable Mercedes Sprinter (or similar) packed with the extras to make the trip that bit easier. Led by our fun, knowledgeable, and passionate tour guides, this journey is one you will never forget!
As this tour operates in an alpine region, the weather can be unpredictable so please prepare for all conditions.

As we make our way through the Selwyn District, you will be greeted by Springfield, where we will then make our turn off towards the team at Alpine Jet Thrills.

Add on a 30 minute thrilling jet boat experience on one of the region’s most famous rivers (extra booked and sold separately).

5.00I had a fantastic tour of Arthur’s Pass via Castle Hill! Cheeky Kea Travel team provided a great selection of snacks, and all my dietary requests were not only met, but also very delicious from the lunch provided. Our day happened to be very rainy, however it was still a very beautiful and scenic drive. Our tour guide/ driver Josh was very knowledgeable of the areas, friendly and very courteous. I would highly recommend doing the hike to Devils Punchbowl in Arthur’s village. And to pack various clothing/ layers incase wind or rain does pick up. This is a great tour option for anyone without a car, has limited time in the Christchurch area, or even for a rainy day. :)

5.00It was an excelllent day! The trip is nicely broken up and all the spots are excellent viewing. There are two hiking opportunities throughout the day, so you don't feel stuck in a van. Definitely book the jet boat. It is both scenic and fun!
