Beautiful cruise on a beautiful boat amazing views of the lake
Great time. Excellent guide
I took my 4 year old here for an explore and picnic and we both enjoyed it. Tim was very friendly and gave us some interesting history of the island. A must do when visiting Wanaka! I look forward to checking out another island sometime!
We had a great time on this tour. It is a very enjoyable trip across the lake and with all the autumn colors out it was a fantastic relaxing voyage. The walk to the island peak was enjoyable and our guide told us bits of info as we did the walk. The captain also gave us a great time telling us all about Wanaka and the local scene. We would recommend this trip to everyone as it is so different to the usual " tourist" activities
Scenic flight + Hands on PILOT experience. The pilot and the team are so friendly. Pilot lets you even have a go with the take off and landing as well. Amazing views from the top.
What an AMAZING experience! Excellent service, great price, and what a view. My families first time in Wanaka, and it did not disappoint. This activity is an absolute must. I can't wait to go back
Thank you for running this great session. Neither of us had kayaked before, so we're a bit nervous about managing the distance etc without a guide and within the time limit. We needn't have worried as the guy (sorry can't remember his name) explained the map and basic paddling methods. We had an amazing morning paddling around Lake Wanaka, taking in the fantastic views We got out to stop on one of the beaches for a break, but found it a bit tough getting in and out of the water etc so after that, carried straight on to the end. We managed to complete the route in just over 2.5 hrs. In future, I'd take a nice little picnic and rest up a bit more and chill. A highlight of our trip!
Such a fun well formed MTB park - suitable for all levels. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Bike park is more of a mix XC and downhill. Good stuffs too at the cafe!
Splashed out on a 3hr can-am session and couldn’t have had a better day. Rachel our driver was awesome, the trails were running mint and we had three runs from the top. Couldn’t have asked for anything more …
Had an epic day out at Bike Glendhu, couldn't believe the value for money with the BookMe Trail pass. The views were exceptional, the tracks were super fun and our whole group had the best day out together with tracks catering to all levels. Finished the day off with a drink down at the base, and the service was fantastic. Cannot wait to get back on the mountain the next time we're in Wanaka.
Staff were friendly and organised. We got straight into it and had 2 too long runs and about 3/4 from Jack’s Spot - 3 hours riding - so much fun!! And spectacular views! Down to Velo for lunch / chicken nachos 👌 Top day. Thank you.
Lovely afternoon out, friendly operators, they were knowledgeable about the area and great with the children who were on the trip. A nice leisurely, scenic cruise for a couple of hours.
This is fantastic. We would do it again at the drop of a hat. Our excellent guide James was knowledgeable and funny. What a great asset he is to the company. From pickup and drop off nothing can be faulted. Highly recommend this to everyone not just tourists. Thanks guys ?
It's was great value for money! ?
Had so much fun, managed to paddle all the way to the Wanaka tree and enjoy amazing views of the mountains from the water. Highly recommend.
Loved this trip. The hike up to the look out was a good workout before cooling off in the small lake on the island. Enjoyed our boat trip soaking in all the mountain views. Great adventure if having a day trip to Wanaka. We still had time afterwards to spend time in Wanaka before driving home.
Met the water taxi driver at the wharf & climbed aboard for a leisurely & informative trip up the lake toward Mou Waho. The island walk was reasonably steep but so worth it … awesome views from the lookout at the top & an inquisitive Buff Weka encounter. Lots of bird activity which I love watching. Quicker boat ride back. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend 3hrs & would definitely do this again.
Family of 5 superb trip up to a little island. My teenage daughter said it was the highlight of her trip so far and we have already been to Queenstown. The hike was steady but easy enough to take my younger son. Well worth going if you are at Wanaka. Highly recommend. Taryn
Best experience good views and photos. boat ride there and back was awesome had a blast of an afternoon there Mou Wahoo island 👌
Really amazing experience, flying like a bird! The hosts were really helpful and accommodating. They made me feel so comfortable as I’ve been there by myself. I must say they are really good at their job. Please do try this whenever you go to Wānaka. Don’t miss out this adventure from your bucket list…
As a first timer to Parasailing I am so glad I gave it a go and the team at Wanaka Parasailing were fantastic, friendly and the humor put me at ease to enjoy the experience. 360 degree video allows you to return home and share the moment with others and select any photo you want. Excellent value for money, amazing views and a must do.
What a Excellent start to a beautiful day. My two girls loved it. The guys are awesome and make everything easy and loads of fun. Thanks heaps from the three of us
Enjoyed a pleasant ride out into Lake Wanaka and the Clutha River. Sarah our boat driver was very personable and informative and drove the boat well - nice job..!!
UN BON MOMENT EN FAMILLE !!!
Gorgeous boat and very very friendly, welcoming hosts. A simple trip out to the island viewing the coast and scenery. Lovely way to spend an afternoon.
Had a really fun with SUP. Booked their early morning deal from 9am. Less people, less boat wave, less audience, absolutely enjoyed the moment:)) Thank you, all the friendly staff!!
We had a great time on the lake with our excellent driver and your operator Matt’. It was so much fun and he was very engaging and knowledgeable. All the staff made sure we knew what was going on, from the time we booked and it was a great experience up the river and across the lake with those awesome views and great spins.
The ride combines a cruise across the lake, some high adrenaline fun and a quiet recharge for the next burst. Our Driver Steve was excellent and provided a great commentary on the lake and river. Highly recommend!
Loved this trip. Was right on time and Sophie our van driver was friendly. Ben our jet boat driver was very informative and didn’t rush things and so the whole trip felt relaxed and easy going. Scenery was amazing and the glacier was spectacular despite the cloud covering probably half of it. Highly recommend this trip!
I would highly recommend this trip up the Matukituki valley, the scenery as you head up towards Mt Aspiring national park is truly breath taking, with a few 360 degree spins along the way to add to the excitement. The walk to the waterfall through the native bush is peaceful and enjoyable, before heading back down the river. I didn't want the day to end!
A different way to see beautiful Lake Wanaka! The boat was clean, comfortable and very stable. Tim & Tim, Captain & crew, were friendly and helpful. The walk on the island was interesting and the view was worth the small effort. Very glad we did this Cruise. Highly recommended!
A must do in Wanaka! Friendly captain, fantastic views and an all around great experience!
