Really enjoyed the walk through the forest. Guide was very knowledgeable and we learned about plants and the local wildlife conservation efforts. A couple of little birds followed us around.

Dale, our guide, was so knowledgeable about the plants, wildlife and New Zealand culture. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. Don’t hesitate to book this tour.

Followed with the guides entertaining us even made a flower out of reeds, and offered to take our pictures with our phones.Awesome experience. Dale was a great guide with his knowledge of the area and sense of humor . This tour is a must do when visiting the area.

With just myself and wife on the tour it was very personal and allowed us to ask a lot of questions and have in-depth conversations about the area. Definitely worth checking this one out.

Such a lovely 2 hour adventure. The cruise was so relaxing, in a beautiful environment. It was interesting hearing about the local area and wildlife and glaciers. Our walk through the rainforest was brilliant… very much in its natural state, but with steps and ropes to help us along where necessary. Even with a dodgy knee I was fine! It was so, so pretty and also informative. We then chilled near the river… so peaceful … while Dale went back to get the boat and return us to civilisation! Highly recommend this tour! I loved it.
