Time for Fun on the Quad Bike !

A sunny October day for quad biking. A party of 9, Dora and her 8 followers all with differing experience on quads. No prior experience required, jus t the minimum starting confidence, as Dora puts you through some learning first and as your confidence grows, so does the experience ramp up. An easy start, then tracks through the forest and down onto the river bed with some river fording thrown in. Full wet gear provided enables you to finish clean and dry. A much enjoyable fun time out. We would definitely do it again. Cheers Dora.

As a couple, we wouldn't normally spend so much on an 'experience', but felt this was pretty unique. It certainly didn't disappoint ! Our hosts, Poppy and Ross were so friendly and professional, I didn't have any nerves about the flight. It really is the best way to see the glacier and amazing landscape up close. Highly recommend to all.

Great activity for both beginners and experienced riders. If you know what to do you can canter while beginners are safe behind with an instructor. Amazing feeling to be back at the saddle. Stunning views and opportunity for perfect photos with a glacier at the background. Can highly recommend it ;)

Awesome trip with guide Phil! I did expect a bit more from the helicopter ride (maybe a small circle above the glaciers instead of only dropping us off on the foot of the glacier?). Anyhow, great trip and I highly recommend it.

We had the most amazing experience! Our tour guide Jara was amazing; he was very knowledgeable about trees (challenging us to quiz him on any kind we saw!) and rocks (explained all about the formations and even pointed out where fault lines were). He was very into guiding us, which in turn, made us very into the tour! Such a positive experience and hope to return one day and do the heli-hike they run, too! Loved that we got to borrow all of the gear. Must do! Thank you, Jara + Team!!

We booked for Thursday at the beginning but it was supposed to be cloudy and rainy so they sent us an email the day before to do it this day, to have better conditions, thank you for that. They are really nice, professional, fun and so on. A lot more scenic that up at Able Tasman. Amazing, thank you guys !

Informative VIP Tour

We were unsure whether this VIP tour would be worth the extra money when there were no chicks to view, but our ranger Devon certainly proved us wrong. We learnt an absolute ton of information about kiwi birds and everything they do at the Centre. Was also great to see and learn about the Tuataras. Devon was super knowledgable and friendly. Seeing the kiwis in the nocturnal viewing area was just so special. Loved quietly watching them rustling around for food or running around in their areas. This place is doing such great work for wildlife and I’d recommend supporting their work by visiting.

Very educational!

With the backstage pass I got to see the incubation rooms and learn all about the rowi, the kiwi bird local to this area. One had just hatched the night before my tour and I got to see it on the camera. The lady who gave me the tour was very knowledgeable about the birds, the local area and efforts to increase rowi populations around Franz Josef. She then took me to the Tuatara enclosure where I got up close with a female tuatara and learned about their feeding, basking and breeding habits. You don’t get to touch any of the animals for health and safety reasons but you do get to see them up close and learn an awful lot about them. The centre is very educational from start to finish. There were two rowi on display that were only 2 months old and it was fascinating to see them interacting with each other, searching for food and having a wee nana nap! The display on the glaciers was very informative and there is even some history on the gold mining, timber trade and hunting, which was pretty interesting! Well worth a visit!

we had a great time in the water and our guide , Debbie was very professional and knowledgeable . it was raining in the morning but in the afternoon it turned out to be prefect as it is always hard to predict in the west coast . we really got our exercise as the winds picked up at the even but it was still great fun ... we would definitely recommend them and use them again when we return to that beautiful part of our country ..
