It was down to the reviews found on Trip Advisor that we decided to book our Mount Cook tour with Craig in preference to a coach trip - what a brilliant decision that was! Right from the outset nothing was too much trouble for Craig. It started with what type of trip we wanted it to be (in the end... More

Craig picked us up at our hotel 8 am and took us to the train. The train ride was lovely, but if you want to go outside, make sure to bundle up cause it was chilly, but beautiful and worth going outside for pics. We then drove around a bit and hiked a bit... We hiked up to a 200... More

We recently had the pleasure to spend a day touring the Akaroa and Christchurch area with Craig Rome. He was so personable and knowledgeable! We appreciated his flexibility and desire to accommodate our interests and schedule. He even welcomed us into his home for a delicious home cooked lunch! By the day's end, we felt a true kinship with Craig... More

Had read about this tour and decided to sign up with Craig. What a great idea! He is very knowledgeable about NZ and his descriptions and explanations were very interesting and informative. Magnificent scenery, a wonderful, healthy lunch, and plentiful stops for photos. I would heartily recommend this tour as well as the rest that Craig offers at Can NZ.... More

I booked this tour for my wife's birthday and the tour itself is very nice. We learned lots of information during the tour and we enjoyed the company of our tour guide. Having this tour is like travelling with a friend. I would really recommend this tour to my friends. I look forward to booking one of the tours again... More

I was, and still am, totally impressed by Craig's knowledge, hospitality and eyesight (lol!) throughout our tour. Love his easy-going personality, warmth and friendliness, not to mention his determination in getting the best scenic/lambs (lol again!) views for us throughout the tour. We appreciate his personalized service, and his meticulous attention to details.. will definitely recommend him for Mt Cook... More

We had a beautiful trip and time for our Mt Cook tour with Craig. He is very personalized, helpful and even went to the extra mile to prepare our requested mushroom soup for our picnic lunch! Prior to our trip, he had also been very helpful with our enquiries about NZ. Thanks to Craig, we were able to capture many... More

First we hope Christchurh will recover soon We joined this tour on 8th March after the massive earthquake hit. Thanks Craig for your Homestay :) The Mt. Cook tour itself with Cannz was absolutely safe and not affected by the quake. The view was breath taking and the drive along the way was amazing with the picnic lunch that we... More

My wife and I employed Can NZ for our tour of the south island of New Zealand in May, 2006. Our guide, Craig Rome, was absolutely fabulous. We went over to the west coast where we had a seaside picnic. The next morning we helicoptered to the top of a glacier and afterwards hiked through tropical vegetation to view Mirror... More

Craig Rome is an excellent tour guide. We drove down to Queenstown and drove back to Christchurch. He was very knowledgeable, flexible, pleasant and informative with a great sense of humour. And it was very clear that he tried his best to show me the best of NZ in every single minute which was great. I would definitely recommend Craig... More
