I tried kayak first time. First it's quite hard to ride But if you can get to use it it's really nice I would like to do again

Unsere erste Kayak Erfahrung und es war Top! Sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Wir waren allein auf dem Fluss und die Stimmung war genial!

A welcome addition to interesting and enjoyable things to do on the West Coast. Terrain like this is not that common in NZ so being able to get up close to it in a boat is great. Birdwatchers especially will gain from it. A highly recommended alternative to charging around in a jet boat (although that's fun too).

I enjoyed a wonderful afteroon on this boat tour. The landscape was breathtaking (especially in the weather). It was unique to other tours have done in the past. It might not be, the longes trip you take, but its just right. Experience some rain forest by boat and hear some of the local storys about the area.

Such a peaceful and enjoyable tour of the waterway up to Lake Mahinapua. Gavin was fun and so knowledgeable about local wildlife and the area. Lots of stories and laughs. A great way to see another aspect of this very different region. We did the sunset tour but sure it would be good at any time just for the access and stories.

It was a last minute booking and we did not expect much. However the whole experience surpassed our expectation. We saw the rare white heron more than 5 times. We had the whole creek to ourselves and it was tranquil. Bird life was abundant and the water was calm. It was an enjoyable experience and we will definitely recommend it to our friends who alos enjoy water activities. Note: This is unguided so you need to be confident rowing (changing directions, going straight and stopping), orienting in wetlands and swim. Gavin came down to check if we could do all that and gave us clear instructions.

We were lucky to have a Keefe t day weather wise but even in less than the ideal day it would still be a great thing to do. Once we stopped zig-zagging the river it was awesome. Stable kayaks so always felt safe with my 12 year old. Beautiful and peaceful! Lovely owners! Highly recommend!

We loved it! Our first booking had to be cancelled because we were the only bookings that they had, but we didn't mind and decided to do the sunset cruise instead, we were so glad we did as the scenery is stunning and was totally worth the wait. Make sure you dress up warm because it is cold out there even when the sun was out.

We were very nicely welcome by Gavin and Max. The ride was great in this superb scenery even with our 2 young kids.

I would defenitely recommend this trip! A beautiful, peacefup place to spend your afternoon. The people are really nice :)

Lovely reception service! Amazing view from the tower. Nice easy walk which can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Challenges your fear of heights too if you're up for a challenge.

Great afternoon excursion. We both enjoyed the walkway and amazing views. Interesting info along the way and good, home baking in the cafe afterwards.

Great attraction with awesome views. Make sure to climb the tower as well.

This is an amazing attraction. As New Zealanders I hope this initiative does really well. The location is set in this beautiful bush setting with a great play area for the kids and a great cafe and gift shop. Staff are friendly and very helpful. The treetop walk is a wonderful, I marvel at the construction of this walkway and tower, the views are fantastic and the whole concept is very user friendly. Thankyou and best wishes - Glenys and Joan

Great experience

Amazing walk, beautiful scenery with lots of Information

Fabulous experience. Up high in the native treetops, great views, even climbed the high tower!

Well worth having a look at. Great way to feel like part of nature but also feel safe and secure on the structure. Beautiful scenery and environment.

Great views.

Se have recommended it to our friends. We really enjoyed the Tree top walk. It’s great even in drizzle as you are really apart of the forest. The access to the start is quite steep for some people, there is transport available making it very accessible. The railing is at a good height especially for people who are not good with heights and you feel really safe. The information stations are great too.

Carving the jade was really hands-on! You choose your own piece of jade and the style you wish to make and are given good instructions on how to achieve a cool piece. Super knowable and enthusiastic instructor and so overall a great activity.

We enjoyed it very much!!! Thanks for the great experience!!;-)

Tony was a brilliant tutor, informative and helpful. The workshop is a fun environment to learn and tony is open to all questions and methods. There is sometimes an opportunity to make additional pieces if you pay for the extra pieces of Jade. Well worth it! Thanks Tony!

What a fantastic afternoon spent out the back of an iconic pub. Very cheap for the quality and knowledge you gain.

Tony is just amazing, he is extremely friendly, helpful and great at what he does. You will have a great time. My husband and I had just the greatest time it was more than we ever expected. This was a great experience and you shouldn't miss this opportunity.

Booked this activity not expecting to enjoy as much as I did - great instructor, location easy to find and came away with a fantastic necklace. Even my husband enjoyed it so great activity for couples. Thank you again - thoroughly enjoyed it!!

My wife and I booked this carving course and we had a blast. Tony was great. We only did basic designs due to the time constraint but for the price we paid it was what we expected to achieve! We even decided to make a second necklace for an extra $20 as we enjoyed it so much!

10/10 this was my second time doing the jade carving. and i will 100% do it again. anybody can do it, i got so much help and advice while i was making my necklace. best jade carving place in nz
