This is an 8-day tour exploring some iconic subalpine and alpine mountain location in the Canterbury section of the Southern Alps. Many factors make the Alpine Flowers tour is an enjoyable experience - small group size (maximum of 6), keen and interested participants, outstanding scenery, a knowledgeable guide and not too great a distance to travel each day. Comfort, good food make for a relaxing experience.
