Dispite the weather well worth it
We were very nicely welcome by Gavin and Max. The ride was great in this superb scenery even with our 2 young kids.
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 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.
I would defenitely recommend this trip! A beautiful, peacefup place to spend your afternoon. The people are really nice :)
Unsere erste Kayak Erfahrung und es war Top! Sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Wir waren allein auf dem Fluss und die Stimmung war genial!
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
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.
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!
Great flight with Ben, flying over the mountains. He's warm and personable, has been flying with his dad since a kid, and knows the mountains like the back of his hand. The view of the mountains from the sky cannot be compared with anything else. It's gobsmacking! So glad we did this!
Wonderful staff, amazing facility in the heart of Hokitika. Excellent value for money, our family loved it.
Wonderful view of the snow-capped mountain and the lake!
Fabulous views, great engineering creating this structure, a must do if your travelling the West Coast
Unique experience, especially if you don’t like heights, but don’t let that stop you. Incredible views and gives you a real sense of how beautiful our native bush really is!
We were o. The Wilderness cycle ride detoured here…the cafe was great good food great coffee friendly people not overpriced Tree top walk was great
This is a unique experience! Nothing else like this in NZ! We spent an hour or so walking high up in the trees, admiring the views. The metal structure feels very safe. It was also fun to watch others zip-lining! The staff were particularly helpful and friendly.
Awesome day, highly recommended
Beautiful serene walk We went at 9.30am was lovely & quiet
Fantastic experience. The sound, views and fresh air all make for a brilliant start to the day. Loved it. Staff were very welcoming
Awesome opportunity to see the forest from a unique perspective. As a tree nerd and lover of all things growing I was in heaven. Informative pamphlets and signage. Not for those that are squeamish about heights! Cafe food was delicious and reasonably priced.
The tour is just great, what a pity it’s a cloudy day when we were there.
Lovely walk with information Boards along the way to explain trees, wildlife etc that you will be viewing at that spot. The walk itself is Easy for little legs. Quite pricey, but nice to do once at least.
I wasn't too sure what to expect. The Canopy walk is very cleverly structured and although I have a fear of heights, I managed it alright. Going to the top of the spiral staircase was scary but worth it when you get to the top.
Great being a tourist in our own country ... we had the Westcoast Treetop Walk all to ourselves first thing this morning. Good to see quite a few people arriving as we were on our way out - a great experience... and as Darryl Kerrigan says "So much serenity".
I highly recommend the West Coast treetops walk near Hokitika. It’s a good length of time and the views are very magnificent.
Very cool experience that I am so glad i took the time to do! Went first thing in the morning and it was so peaceful with just the birds and my friends for company. Amazing views that were up there amongst the best we have seen on the west coast.
Very much enjoyed the tree top walk. Amazing to be looking down on the forest, but still felt small amongst it.
Great views even though my friend refused to look down !!
Thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Beautiful outlook. Not too hard to achieve. Even climbed the Tower - brave me
This was a perfect wee walk for our family. Being so close to the coastline it offered a different aspect to our weekend break which we thoroughly enjoyed. The 'lookout tower' was awesome ,but very much not for the feint hearted!Recommend this to all travellers visiting this part of the west coast
Fantastic!! Well worth the admission fee. Went first thing and the weather couldn't have been better. Highly recommend.
Great visit even while raining and as the rain was clearing. The views of the trees and lake were magical and the mist from the rain made you feel like you were in a different place. Highly recommended
