Christchurch Explorer Tours 2024/2025

“Fantastic jam packed three weeks in the wonderful New Zealand. The trip was more than I could have hoped for, New Zealand would be a great back drop for any visit.”

“This tour is one for the true snow junkie. The snow fields visited on this trip are smaller, off-the-beaten-path club fields. Although these fields have some of the best powder in all of New Zealand, most of them only provide nutcracker rope-tow access to the sites. Learning the technique to using nutcrackers and rope-tows was not easy or straightforward, but our guide Morgs was very patient and stayed with us until we could master the technique enough to make it up the mountain. Morgs was also very knowledgeable about each snow field and about New Zealand sites, history, and culture. All accommodation, transport, and some meals are provided on tour, so there is little to worry about while on tour besides perfecting the nutcracker technique. Overall, I would recommend this trip to any experienced skier or snowboarder who is in great physical shape and is willing to put in some work to discover some amazing powder.”

“This was an excellent trip to genuinely experience a great variety of tracks in NZ. We were able to tick off 4 of 9 of the Great Walks. Two of them, Tongariro Northern Circuit & Abel Tasman, we had a longer closer look at. Those & the Siberia Valley at Mt Aspiring NP will be enduring memories. So many activities everyday with very little down time. A fair amount of time spent in the van getting from place to place but unavoidable. Flights from Wellington to Nelson by a small Cessna, helicopter ride into the Siberia Valley & numerous water taxis helped conserve our time. All in all a great trip!”
