Amazing tour May 13, 2008
Alan's 4WD Tours can be booked from your accommodation in Mt Cook - I booked mine at the YHA, where you can get an extra YHA member discount.
The tour I took was in an Argo (8WD) vehicle, to see the Tasman Glacier. Alan and his brother took us up to the glacier and told us about avalanches, plants, glacial shrinkage and other interesting details about the area, flora and fauna. The tours do seem to be very Japanese-dominated - I was the only non-Japanese person on the tour! Not that I'm complaining, as I got extra attention from Alan, and I got to ask lots of questions whilst the Japanese tourists were listening to recordings (in Japanese).
