South Island Snow Safari

 

Tour the Top Ski areas in the South Island of New Zealand

If you’ve been looking for an epic guided snow tour in New Zealand, stop your search! Whether you’re new to the snow or an experienced snow hound, we have it all right here packaged up for you. Our expert guides will take you across the South Island's best ski towns: Christchurch, Lake Tekapo, Ohau, Wanaka and Queenstown.

Welcome to the best one-week guided ski and snowboard tour of the South Island! Our expert guides are ready to show you the best runs and powder stashes across six different mountains over eight days.

We’ve got everything organised: your transport and transfers to the mountains, your accommodation, lift passes and breakfasts are included in this Christchurch to Queenstown snow package.

If you want to add on any extras like equipment hire or lessons, that’s easy! Just click the add-on options when you book the tour and we’ll sort it.

On this small group tour you’ll experience the best ski resorts in New Zealand. Venture to some ‘off-the-beaten-track’ ski areas of the South Island, New Zealand. Our expert snow guides are not only exceptional people, but also live, breathe and dream about snow – with over 100 seasons between them both here and abroad, you know you’re with the best!

While you’ll see a lot of snow on this safari, you’ll also see a great deal of the South Island’s main attractions! We’ve even scheduled one day in Queenstown as a non-ski day so you can book from our range of optional activities, or chill out and enjoy the Queenstown winter vibe.

Beginners – we love showing you the ropes (and the chair lifts, and the best beginner slopes) – this tour is suited to your needs, just add on a Snow lessons package and you’ll have a blast getting your confidence up, and be skiing South Island, New Zealand intermediate runs by the time we wrap up.

Snow Safari Tour Tips:

  • Feel free to book an extra night of accommodation pre-tour to get the most out of your location and on the last day of the tour so that you are not in a rush once we go our separate ways.
  • The tour price includes dorm share accommodation but if you would prefer your own space you have the option to upgrade to a private room for the duration of your tour.
  • Note that due to unforeseen weather/snow conditions, changes may need to be made to the itinerary. Luckily, our tour guides are super flexible pros, so they’ll make sure you have a good time no matter where the trip takes you.
  • Like any Haka Tour we include everything you need for a stress free week - the full list is below, and we have packages to suit all skill levels. $99 deposit reserves your spot!
