Came by to get a bus from Queenstown to Cardrona. They were really helpful and friendly. Booked a bus for the next day with pick up close to my accommodation.
The bus picked me up around 7.30 and we arrived at Cardrona around 9.30. We left Cardrona at 4pm and was dropped off where I was picked up.
Trainee staff work there; booking a ski trip was difficult with them and required another person to have to cancel. They have a miscommunication with Cardrona Shop Queenstown. If ever they tell you that Cardrona will pick up and deliver gear, don't listen.
Our family learned that the hard way. That is why we'll never use Go Orange again for anything; except maybe the bus (that was good.)
Milford Sound was incredible. Go Orange did a great job, very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic day on the boat, bit of lunch included. Great servive.
Milford sound was incredible! Me and my wife were debating on going to this for awhile during our visit in queenstown. My suggestion if you are debating, go. It was awesome. Go orange was a mediocre company. It was cheap and included a free lunch which was great. The on board staff were awesome. But our bus tour guide was monotone and talked too much.
Our tour guide 'Cowboy' was amazing! He showed us lots of cool places (with photo opportunitites) and helped us out with tips.
On the Milford Sound boat trip we even went out further than normal to see dolphins.
Go Orange is an operator I would recommend to friends. Use bookme.co.nz to get a discount. We paid NZ$20 less compared to the regular price.
Great Milford Cruise at competitive price. I booked online around 7:30 the night before we wanted to cruise, and our tickets were waiting for us at the GoOrange counter in the Milford Sound Visitor Terminal when we arrived at 8:30a.m. For our 9a.m. cruise. Friendly staff, informative and funny captain.
Had a super pleasant experience with Go Orange yesterday. I was dreading the bus ride, but we had an incredible driver named Jeff or Greg. He had a hat on, an earing, and purple sun glasses. I was very happy and surprised by the amount of information he shared regarding history, geography, and local animals. Awesome experience overall!
We had an amazing time kayaking with Go Orange. We were booked to do a 3 day kayak trip, but our flight was unfortunately canceled and we got in later than expected. Go Orange was incredibly flexible, and they were happy to schedule us for a two day trip instead, at the last minute.
We were lucky enough to have Lisa as our guide--definitely request her if possible. She was so friendly, funny, and genuine; we really came away with a new friend. She had a ton of knowledge about the flora and fauna of Doubtful Sound, as well as tons of New Zealand history. She helped us feel safe and upbeat despite some real rain and wind. We could not have imagined a better guide for the trip.
The equipment was all in excellent condition, and lots of important things were provided. We stayed warm in the kayaks, and our gear stayed dry in the dry bags.
Everything about the trip was great--it was the perfect start to our New Zealand adventure.
Thanks so much, Lisa!
The service was good but not the best Prepare yourself for the long drive because it definitely is long as expected. We were able to take heaps off photos which was great. The cruise was beautiful we got lunch on board (fish and chips) this was small and not that great so I recommend bringing food with you. They overall was not bad.
