Overview

Arthur’s pass – A National Park located deep in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. You will be travelling on the Great Alpine Highway through the ever-changing remarkable landscapes. This tour highlights an example of great engineering, spectacular waterfalls, and famous filming locations.

While on this tour with us you will see a variety of green fields to rugged mountain ranges, lush forest and ice-fed lakes and rivers!

There are plenty of stops along the route, so we won’t be spending all day in the van although it is pretty comfy. Grab an action thrilled tour while stopping at those must-see Instagram worthy spots too along the way!

This package includes a 25-minute jet boat ride with the Team at Alpine Jet Thrills.

“Jetboat Experience… more than a ride!
Jump aboard Alpine Jet Thrills and discover the holy grail of jet boating rivers where much of the development of kiwi inventor Bill Hamilton's jet boat happened

Activity itinerary

Alpine Jet Thrills - Canyon Safaris (Springfield)
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
As we make our way through the Selwyn District you will be greeted by the Gorgeous little western town of Springfield where we make our turn off towards Alpine Jets. Here you will spend time experiencing the wonders of the Waimakariri, it’s no wonder Jet Boating was developed here in Christchurch! For those that have decided to not add this onto their tour, there are walks, views and sheep cuddles to enjoy.
Lake Lyndon
  • 10m
We will make a quick stop at Lake Lyndon for a cheeky photo. Make sure you are holding onto your hats as it can get very windy here.
Castle Hill
  • 1h
Once back in the van we head towards Castle Hill. These weathered limestone rocks sit proudly on the tussocky hills and were once in the ocean! Over time they eroded away and started forming these amazing unique shapes you’ll see today. You might recognise this landscape from films such as Lord of the Rings and Narnia! That’s right. Not only that, but while you walk amongst the rocks you will also see climbers and boulderers! This place is a magnet for those types of hobbies. This is not a guided walk so you will be left to explore this piece of beauty on your own.
Otira Viaduct Lookout
  • 15m
Also known as Deaths Corner! The Otira Viaduct Lookout is an amazing spot to see the national park in all its glory. This bridge is the only reason driving Arthurs Pass is possible! It’s huge at 440 Metres long and is a great spot for a photo of the bridge and the surrounding landscape. A little bonus too, you might see a wee Cheeky Kea! The sneaky Alpine Parrot of NZ.
Arthur's Pass National Park
  • 1h
We depart the lookout and head towards Arthur's Pass village. On the way you will be able to see the beautiful backdrop of the majestic Southern Alps up close. Once we arrive you will have the opportunity to either walk the Devils Punch Bowl or spend this time walking around the local shop. Here you will also be able to grab lunch.
Devils Punchbowl Walking Track
  • 1h
This walking track is approximately 1 hour with a gradual incline including steps towards a ferocious 131-meter-tall waterfall. Fitness is low to moderate as you walk through the bush and forest.
Porters Pass
  • 10m
Hop out and look down the valley at the pass we drove up at the start of the day. Views here are stunning especially when there is a bit of snow around
Cave Stream Scenic Reserve
  • 10m
On our journey back together we will make a quick stop at Cave Stream. This stunning location is great to stretch the legs and get a couple of quick pics. Please note we are unable to enter the cave.
