Mount Cook NP is probably the best area for a TMC. I did a TMC with Alpine Guides and was quite happy with the standard. We stayed in Kelman Hut at the top of the Tasman Glacier.
It's difficult to compare the different companies, as it depends a lot on the particular guide who runs your TMC, and the other clients that go on it. I suppose you could check and see what each course includes if you're after value for money, ie. whether or not they have fresh food, what the location is, mode of transport, duration of course, guide to client ratio, what gear hire is included, etc. |
