Lake Tekapo Holiday Packages

Lake Tekapo

The town, Lake Tekapo (the name is similar to the lake) is on the southern tip of the lake, and has some of the most splendid and sweeping views imaginable. The lake is present in Mackenzie District on the southern island of New Zealand.
A turquoise lake amid the snow-clad mountains, Lake Tekapo sparkles beneath the blue sky. It is often a magical experience to see a line-up of mountains reflecting on its waters. Its rock floor is a specialty as the glaciers roll down grinding the rock particles and depositing them on the lake’s floor.

The splendid view of the lake and skiing opportunities on the mountains is worth the visit if you book Lake Tekapo packages. Therefore, often tourists who are traveling from Christchurch to Mount Cook make it a base station on the route.

How To Reach

By Road

Several bus services that travel to Tekapo are available from Christchurch Airport, Queenstown or Wanaka and Christchurch. It is a three hours journey from Christchurch airport to Lake Tekapo. The distance for a road trip is 1200 km.

By Air

The nearest airport to reach Lake Tekapo is Christchurch airport. If you are traveling from the cities of Australia or other countries, you can fly to Christchurch airport.

By Train

You can also take a train if you are traveling from Rangiora to reach Lake Tekapo. However, there are obvious disadvantages as the trains run once every day on this route and the time duration is longer than by road, that is a little more than 4 hours.

Best Time To Visit

Lake Tekapo during winter months (mid-November to late December)

You can visit Lake Tekapo in the winter months when the icy-blue water projects a strikingly different image compared to the snow-capped mountains. It is when the nearby ski fields remain busy and you can be a part of thrilling adventures down the snowy terrain.

The place as a part of Lake Tekapo packages offers many snow activities and you can have good fun out there. However, in case you are there for a relaxing trip, viewing the perfect natural and scenic beauty can keep you occupied as well.

Lake Tekapo during summers

If you have to consider the aesthetics of the place, then summers are no less. The summers enliven the lake, as the wildflowers add to the beauty. You can have a swim in the pristine lake. These aspects make it a perfect visit even for the summer holidays.

Tekapo has many summer activities for its visitors, so you can also look out for a trip during the summer holidays.

Debasish's 7 days trip to Sikkim - Gangtok - Darjeeling

17 hours ago
Lined up M/s Jereme travels through Travel Trangle portal for family trip to north Sikkim. During initial discussion, Travel Tringle had promised to extend support in case of any exigency. But they do not pick our call even. In Detail: During journey to Lachen from Gangtok, our car tyre got punctured. Stepney available with car was totally worn out. Compelled to travel with that stepney compromising safety. As expected, before we reach Lachen, on the way, again the tyre got flattened. Very next day our trip was planned for Gurudongmar lake. M/s Jere was pressurizing us to visit to Lake with that car only. We straight refused to accept their proposal but still they were pursuing. After lots of deliberation, we said that we are cancelling our Lake trip, because it will be a serious safety compromise for our family. Finally, at 23:00hrs night they arranged one local vehicle for Lake visit. During this process tried to contact TRAVEL TRANGLE multiple times but they did not pick my call. I am really disappointed with the attitude of TRAVEL TRANGLE. NOT EXPECTED. So, by the grace of GOD if nothing wrong happened during tour, then it's your good luck. But if something happens then you have to suffer, Travel Trangle will not extend support. Finally, we had to travel from Lachen via Lachung to Gangtok with no stepney, mind it no stepney in our vehicle. It was a scary journey for us. Thank you, GOD.

Shubhashish's 7 days trip to Italy

2 days ago
"I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a 7-night, 8-day trip to Paris and Switzerland organized by Wiseyatra, and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment I booked the trip, their attention to detail and professionalism were evident. The itinerary was expertly crafted, allowing us to explore the iconic landmarks of Paris, from the Eiffel Tower to the Louvre, and then seamlessly transition to the breathtaking landscapes of Switzerland, where we indulged in mountain adventures and serene lake views. The accommodations provided were top-notch, offering comfort and luxury after a day of exploration. The guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, enhancing our experience with their insights and local expertise. One of the highlights was the culinary journey we embarked on, sampling delicious French pastries in Paris and savoring Swiss chocolate in the heart of Switzerland. Every meal was a delight, showcasing the rich flavors of each region. Overall, I cannot thank Wiseyatra enough for organizing such a fantastic trip. It exceeded all my expectations and left me with cherished memories that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend Wiseyatra to anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable travel experience."

Sureshkr's 8 days trip to Himachal

4 days ago
Everything is good. Alert the travellers regarding activities at the places. Give them the approximate prices for that then they can aware of the changes. It may help them to choose the same. One more thing, at the time of vacating the hotel always early in the morning, the travellers have to skip their breakfast. This is the extra burden of your client. So try to give them some packed food on the day of vacating the hotel. It's all my suggestions to improve the travel experience of everyone. Thanks..... Skiing at Koksar and paragliding at Khajjiar lake.

Shubham's 7 days trip to Ladakh

7 days ago
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a truly unforgettable trip to Leh-Ladakh, meticulously organized by Santa Ji, and I cannot praise it enough. From the moment our journey began to the time we returned, every detail was thoughtfully planned and seamlessly executed, making it one of the most memorable adventures of my life. One of the standout aspects of the trip was our stay at The Bodhi Tree Hotel. Nestled in the serene landscape of Leh, this hotel provided not just comfort, but a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel at home away from home. The rooms were well-maintained, the staff was courteous and always ready to help, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. The food served was delicious and catered well to our tastes after long days of travel and exploration. It was the perfect base to relax and recharge. A special thanks and heartfelt appreciation to Bittu Ji, our driver and companion throughout the 7-day journey. His driving skills on the challenging mountain roads were exceptional, and we always felt safe and secure in his care. More than that, his cheerful personality, local knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile truly enhanced our experience. Whether it was navigating the high-altitude passes or stopping at hidden scenic spots, Bittu Ji was always there with a smile and a story. The entire itinerary was well-balanced — covering all the key attractions like Nubra Valley, Pangong Lake, Khardung La, and local monasteries — while still allowing us time to soak in the natural beauty and tranquility of the region. Santa Ji’s planning ensured that everything ran smoothly, and his commitment to guest satisfaction was evident in every aspect of the trip. Overall, I highly recommend this Leh-Ladakh trip to anyone looking for a mix of adventure, comfort, and cultural richness. Thank you, Santa Ji, for crafting such a wonderful journey, and a big salute to The Bodhi Tree team and Bittu Ji for making it truly special.

Alok's 8 days trip to Sikkim - Gangtok - Darjeeling

We customized the entire tour making it less hectic with help of travel agent. Entire tour was good. Except toy train ride. I booked 3 months back and was promised by travel agemt regarding steam engine toy train ride in darjeeling but rather they provided diesel engine ride and no satisfaction reply provided by agent. They should morally refund my difference amount. I got cheaper deal but since they had already agreed to my demands I decided to go with vacation venue instead of ditching team Snow fall near TSOMGO lake
