Picnic in the glaciers
A Tasman Glacier Ice Cave & Picnic Experience is a family-friendly way to explore the Tasman Glacier, New Zealand s longest glacier.

All equipment is provided, all fitness levels are welcome, and no prior experience is required, although there is an age restriction of 10 years. Allow up to six hours for this experience, which caters for up to five passengers and usually costs $4999. During April, the experience is discounted to $3999.
