Have been to Porters before and was very happy to stumble upon a great deal on Bookme! Very friendly ski area- all staff and locals made it a great day despite average visibility most of the day

Great day with grandkids . Was whiteout at top , so we came down well marked track .. at T2 the weather was clear.. great staff at lifts. If you say Thankyou they all reply You’re Welcome..very friendly staff . Great runs and great day

Was a truly amazing day and well worth the trip except the gear we hored was faulty and played up all day. Still would recommend this to anyone.

Very helpful, friendly instructors that give a fun flight. Fantastic views while soaring along the ridges of the mountains. Equipment is good and sturdy. Highly recommended!

It was an amazing experience and the view was breathtaking! We even were served scones and drinks up there :)

I loved being able to have the chance to gallop through some paddocks and the views and photos made everything an amazing time. He took very good precautions on everyone according to there skill level and made sure everyone was enjoying themselves.

From the first hello and the walk through the collection of antiques, thru a great ride, to a fascinating chat about jet boat racing, the whole experience was 5 stars The ride was exhilarating, the scenery breathtaking, and the snippets of history and geology fascinating.

Almost had to postpone due to the weather but glad the weather cleared enough because what a blast of a day. This club has the most tranquil and well-placed location for its operations. There's a friendly choc labrador to say hi to you when you arrive and my instructor John was ever the hospitable host. I got to explore everything that caught my curiosity, the tug plane, the control room, the glider shed, and of course the gliders. The club members were more than informative when I asked about things and were easy to talk to. You could easily tell there was a wealth of knowledge there that they loved sharing with others when asked. Not only did John my instructor give me the best comprehensive flight experience from A - Z, but he went above and beyond when I returned from my flight a bit earlier than planned and said "I think we need to go again and get your money's worth" So that's exactly what we did :D This is a man who put the customer first and understands why he does what he does, and because of that, I'll definitely be back for sure. (Hopefully with some friends to share the day with) Find memories forever will they be

This was a lifetimes ambition and finally at 69yrs - got it done thanx to Peter (Instructor) and the Canterbury Gliding Club - great and thank you achieved a first. Dreamed of doing it from boyhood, all I can say is stunning, fantastic experience due to Peter - thank you 👍 Brilliant views and fun to take the controls, great instructor. Again thank you Canterbury Gliding Club for your hospitality and friendly attitude …. Was like a brath of fresh air …. Thank you thank you 👍

What amazing people and my parents who went up had an incredible experience. Great gift idea for someone who has everything

The staff & our pilot Edwyn ( sorry if spelt wrong) was very helpful & informative - Great fathers day gift for my dad- He loved it & we would definately recommend! thanks again canterbury gliding club!

The clouds opened up in time to give a glorious break for my trip up with the glider. John was a wonderful instructor and it was exhilarating and peaceful at the same time. The scenery was stunning, the gliding more than memorable and the cherry on top was the opportunity to try my hand at gliding under the watchful eyes of John McCaw. I highly recommend treating yourself to a gliding opportunity and if you're lucky you will get Jon as your instructor~! Jackie

My first time in a glider was a fantastic experience. It was a great feeling to be so close to the snow capped mountains with amazing views you could never see any other way. I was a bit nervous but the lovely staff put me at ease and I went away on a high looking forward to the next time. Thanks so much to everyone at Springfield Gliding Club

While it took a few attempts to get the flight due to weather it was worth the wait Fantastic views great set guys who take you up and give you the controls Would do again ?

This was a great way to spend a Saturday morning. The people were lovely and very welcoming. My husband booked me a trial flight for my 70th birthday as gliding has always appealed to me. Even though the weather wasn't optimal, I had a great flight with Rob who let me take the controls for part of the flight to do some turns. The view over the hills and around Sheffield were great. We also had the smoothest landing I've ever had. I'm keen to take up the opportunity for more flights and instruction by joining the Club. I only wish I hadn't waited so long to do this.

This was my 60th birthday gift. This was awesome. We were welcome by all the glider club team. We were offered some coffee and donuts, waiting for the weather to improve. Then we were taking to the glider, explained thoroughly what was going to happen, the safety rules, the instrumentation and controls. Then we took off and as soon as the tug plane released us, the instructor gave me the controls (this was a full dual controls glider). What a sensation ! The responsiveness to the controls is so immediate. And the feeling to surf on the air and play with the wind ! And the panoramic and unobstructed view, unbeatable by any classical aircraft. I wish I could do it again, and again and again.

Such nice guys, everything so easy from booking to flight, and correspondence from instructor on weather updates were much appreciated. I would recommend this experience to everyone, great views.

Thank you Don for looking after us and making us feel 100% safe on the quads! We were a group of four ladies, all beginners, and Don made made sure we knew what we were doing and were confident before our adventure began. We all had an absolute BLAST and oh my word the scenery is BREATHTAKING!!!! My friend commented that it truely is NZ on a plate!!!

Had the most incredible time on the 2 hour summit peak tour! Me and my partner were made comfortable very quickly and were taken on an exciting afternoon quad biking (our first time too!) learning about the areas around and our tour leader Ash taking lots of photos for us. Would 100% recommend and we will definitely be going back again. Thank you ?

Fantastic fun, excellent guide, knowledgeable, amazing and fun filled time, stunning views, must do !!!!

We had a amazing tour with our guide Don! He has good knowledge about the area and we learnt alot from him. The scenery was breathtaking when he brought us right to the top of the hill, simply amazing! Would highly recommend anyone to take this tour and i am definitely sure you would enjoy it. Thanks Don for being so friendly and looking after us alot especially on our safety.

The best tour we have done in New Zealand. Don our guide was amazing.

What a fantastic weekend, we went with another couple and had a great relaxing weekend. Staff where very friendly and helpful, especially Sonia who looked after us for our meals she was such a hardworking but very attentive person. The deal is great value for money and would definately recommend for a getaway. As for the Golf well enough said :).

From start to finish the whole trip was incredible! The staff went above and beyond and were so lovely! The package was such great value, dinner and breakfast were amazing and the golf course was stunning! The room was fabulous as well, loved the fire place. Would absolutely recommend!

Amazing trip. Bit of everything from thrilling turns, spins, skimming close to cliffs adrenaline pumping stuff to informative information plus amazing scenery for picture taking. Much better than the Queenstown one I experienced in the past. Well worth a detour and nice drive there. Thanks again 👌👍

It was really great golf round with family. Highly recommend~! I’ve never been golf courses with a fantastic view like this.

Good experience I absolutely loved the mountain views honestly breathe taking probably the best and seeing the trees nearly falling of the edge that was even amazing to see under its roots. Nice to meet you mate and your son and doggie 🤙🏼😊

We had an amazing ride! Lots of stunning scenery and so many different types - wild bush, grazing land, soaring rock cliffs, mountains, snow..... just amazing! Blair gave us an incredible journey - fast and fun with stops for photos. Had an absolute ball and it was a much better journey than some from further south. Totally recommend for families too.

Enjoyed the 30 min ride a lot. Spins, close to the cliffs, some historical stops, great photo stops. Definitely worth the money and a good deal on bookme
