⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Highly recommend using the snow express to be taken up to the majestic snow fields of North Canterbury, New Zealand. I thoroughly enjoyed being chauffeured by Cara, who was very sociable, welcoming and fun. Even enjoyed having a ski with her on the mountain! I had upmost faith in her driving skills to get us up and down Mt Lyford (somewhat scary at times) access road, which she negotiated expertly! Thank you for the opportunity to ski the enjoyable family run Mt Lyford ski field, I had a thoroughly wonderful day for my birthday. I even enjoyed a relaxing snooze on the way back lol. Will definitely call upon her great service when I am wanting to go back up to the snow fields again, as it sure is more relaxing and enjoyable than driving myself from Oxford. :)))))).” - Mandy Wheen
