Transportation was provided. The guide took us off the main trail on to a private trail to explain all about the birds and the flora that we were walking thru. The guide talked almost continually pointing out various things. When we got to the view point to look at the glacier she told us things about the glacier and its history. If you didn't have a guide you would just walk up to the view point spend 5 minutes looking at a few signs, the glacier and leave. There is more to the area than that. The 3 hours we spent on the tour did not seem long.

This walk was different to what we expected. We thought that we would be closer to the glacier, but were not disappointed as our guide Kath was very well informed regarding all aspects of the landscape and vegetation. She took us into areas that tourists without a guide were unable to go. Our safety was a priority. A big thanks to Kath and the company.

Had a great time. Fun walking off the main trails. Our guide, Sophie was friendly, knowledgeable, pointing out interesting things we would never have noticed and always pointed out where to step when on rocky/stoney areas so we were safe too. I didn't realise it was no longer possible to walk closer to the glacier though. Still had a good time.
