Arthur's Pass National Park Visitor Centre

Follow the old stage coach route and travel down the spectacular Otira Gorge, testament to the road builders of the 1860's and the route taken by the Maori in their quest for greenstone. View Cave Stream where it burrows underground in an area of limestone cliffs and gorges, craggy outcrops and a setting of mountains to the east and west. This area was also used as for the filming of C.J Lewis’ story – “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”. The incredible Castle Hill rocks, unique weatherworn, rain smoothed outcrops of limestone are seen from the highway. Lunch at a country hotel, included in cost of tour.

I have a long list of adjectives that describe Maureen, our guide on 24 February 2026 and it is hard to know where to begin. Maureen collected us at our hotel with such cheerful friendliness we knew we were in good hands. During the day she was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, kind, flexible, curious, and passionate. She is clearly a proud New Zealander (Kiwi?). By the end of the day we felt it too. We highly recommend this tour and you would be really lucky to have Maureen as your guide.

We had a wonderful experience. Special mention of Mr. Grant who took us in small group tour to Kaikoura whale watching and also to Arthur’s pass one way by train and return by road. He showed us some amazing places, stopped frequently for photo stops, wonderful places for lunch, some great hiking and above all was very humble. He has in depth knowledge about almost everything he showed. Hey Grant, it was lovely meeting you. We are the 2 docs from India. Best wishes mate .

We’ve just had a fabulous trip up to Arthur’s Pass on the train. Our Guide Dave met us at the hotel and took us to the station then met us at Arthur’s Pass. Dave drove us round giving lots of information with a few stops which were great. Thoroughly recommended

We had a great day taking the train to Arthur's pass then returning via van to Christchurch with a fabulous lunch at Grasmere, and a couple short hikes in route. Our tour guide, Mandy, was absolutely the best with a wealth of knowledge and great explanations on the return trip! Lovely day!
Great Personal Service with Lastning Memories.

Besides the beautiful countryside, food and coffee, our memorable adventure will include our tour guide, Maureen who was on top of all the flexible changes in our schedule due to the unexpected rainy, windy and cold weather for summer. Our cruise was canceled. She directed us to other interesting sites, like the Antarctica Museum and cheese factory. Due to the harsh weather, I needed a warmer raincoat. Maureen helped me find the perfect one for me. She directed us to restaurants. We feel very grateful for her warm, uplifting personality on those 2 rainy, cold dreary days. Thank you, Maureen and your tour team who gave you great backup support. Kim and Nancy Kerry
