A sure-fire and quick way to get to the snow is by chopper.
Easy 30 min/S$300 ride will put you right on top of Mount Cook.
Try it, especially you had not seen snow.

Alternatively, you can drive to either Fox Glacier or Franz Josef Glacier. Unfortunately, you can only reach the foot of the Glacier aka see the Glacier but not walk on it. To walk on the Glacier, you'll need to join a guided tour.
