Must try. Way different from other quad bike adventures across the country.
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.
Exhilarating jump,mesmerizing freefall and spectator views. The crew is awesome from ground staff to the pilot and Peter the Tandem Master is super cool. Thank you Inflte for an incredible experience. See you next time on 20000F.
Well organised, life changing incredible experience. You've not lived until you've fallen from a plane at terminal velocity.
Really informative and inspiring
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.
Our guide Michael and his team were absolutely fantastic. They were extremely knowledgeable and took care of us throughout the sometimes very tough terrain. It was a once in a lifetime experience which I would highly recommended to anyone.
Did 16,500ft jump and absolutely worth to go for it! Stunning views with Franz Josef Glacier, Fox glacier and mt cook! Tandem Henry, he is cool and nice because I was too nervous before the jump and he was patient to make me feel comfortable. Don’t hesitate, just jump!
Highly recommend. The guides are incredibly, very knowledgeable and keep you entertained. Spectacular views. Awesome Heli Ride.
Amazing, just wish we could have had more time in the private pool, 45mins flies by. However the main pools were fantastic too. Highly recommend
The private hot pool was amazing! Beautiful private changing facilities and the most epic outlook from the pool. Definitely want to come back! Bonus points for the lovely staff!
Definitely lived up to our expectations. Would go back again if we had the chance!
Good activity for a really wet day. Good disability facility in ladies change room but more mats needed between change room and pools. Good pools. Clean. Staff pleasant.
Loved how our tour guides are very passionate about their jobs! It was very informative and interesting. Got great shots of the glacier.
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!!
Nick was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Lots of information was shared with us. It was an enjoyable and informative trip. I Would certainly recommend the guided walk.
A stunningly beautiful setting to spend an hour or two soaking in the hot pools
It is something that you should do in Franz Josef glacier.
Awesome one! First ever skydive and they made it so memorable and hard to beat! Did the kea jump! Lucky for the good weather and my coach checked everything to keep us safe! So, just dive in the air and enjoys the magnificent glacier and coastal view! Definitely loved it! Thanks for everything guys!
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 !
Dany was fun during the whole dive. My experience was just amazing…
The drive to Franz Josef was magnificent! Once you arrive, you are greeted by professional staff. Then you’re taking to the drop zone where the instructors are even more friendly and professional! Great time, stunning views - a must do adventure!
nice view and professional staffs. **Recommend**
Absolutely AMAZING!!!!
I did kayaking before back in singapore but it's my first time doing kayaking on freshwater lake with such amazing scenery and of cuz on pretty choppy waves due to the wind. It was not as easy as I initially thought it would be but I'm glad that I shared a kayak with the guide. Although initially I hoped that I would get a single kayak on my own so that I can get nice photos of me kayaking alone but I still got nice back view photos from my guide. We spotted mandarin ducks and were super lucky to witness a 800yo+ tree falling just right next to us. Overall, I do recommend to sign up with a friend if you love kayaking! Good discounted price with bookme! Thank you! Free waterproof bags are provided as well.
The whole family enjoyed the 3 hour classic kayaking experience. The scenary was beautiful and it was the first time we kayak in a black water lake. Cool! Our guide was friendly and took many beautiful photos for us. Thank you! Highly recommended tour.
We had a fabulous day out kayaking. We are new to kayaking and it was not a problem to learn how to do it. There was lovely bird life. Great guide. FYI No view of the glaciers
It was an afternoon with slight rain which made the scenery particularly beautiful. The guide Hailey was professional and caring. The tour can accommodate up to 18 people but there were only 2 of us. The double kayak we used was very easy to manoeuvre. The lake due to metallic content was rather warm. The best part was to kayak into the river and listen to birds singing. We were both experienced in canoeing and the tour lasted nearly two hours on water. If it were a bigger group, the duration on water would likely longer.
We booked this as an activity more for my husband, however Dora was an amazing guide and teacher for myself as a complete beginner! My confidence on the quad grew quickly over our trip as she constantly encouraged and assured me i was doing well! Also what an experience to quad through some awesome rainforests and down the river bed. We loved it so much and would do it again in a heartbeat! Well worth the money we spent! Thanks Dora!
Excellent couple of hours spent on a quad bike. If you’ve never ridden one you’ll really enjoy it, if you are used to riding, it may be a bit tame for you! Would be better on a wet day I think!!!
Absolutely loved my time kayaking in the mapourika lake with Franz Joseph Wilderness! Extremely professional and capable individuals, superb gear and equipment. Marcel, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Also clicked great photos of ours which they emailed to us for free. 10/10 would recommend if you're in Franz or Fox.
Friendly family business, we were late due to a mix up with our start time and they hurried us through the "training" and allowed us to join the group and get the full experience. Lots of fun, lots of different scenery and would totally recommend it!
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 ..
