Absolutely loved this!! We took our 3 teenagers and they too loved it. Would do it again in a heartbeat!
Good
it was awesome!
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.
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.
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 ;)
Really informative and inspiring
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!
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.
Highly recommend. The guides are incredibly, very knowledgeable and keep you entertained. Spectacular views. Awesome Heli Ride.
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.
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.
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!!
Loved how our tour guides are very passionate about their jobs! It was very informative and interesting. Got great shots of the glacier.
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.
nice view and professional staffs. **Recommend**
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!
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…
Absolutely AMAZING!!!!
Is a dry day for quad bike but we still enjoy the experience. Both of the ladies are very patient with First timer like us. Love the rain forest and up and down adrenaline!
We had a great morning there was three of us aged between 8 and 52 and the three of us had an absolute ball it pushed my boundaries and I totally enjoyed it.
Highly recommend this activity in the most beautiful spot on the West Coast - lots of fun and a great way to get into the natural environment. Would definitely do this again! ??
An axciting drive through rocks, stones, water and beautiful scenery.
Loved the backstage tour, very interesting and informative guide, with fascinating facts about the kiwi and tuatara. Would recommend the backstage tour as without it, the general entry is quite short and does not really warrant its entry fee
My family and I did this Sunset Kayak Cruise for my husband's birthday on 8 January 2023. From the start of the van transfer out to Lake Mapourika we knew this was going to be a fun time. Ariel introduced himself in the tradtional Maori way and asked us all about ourselves. The weather was lovely and warm and the lake was stunning. My husband and I shared a kayak with our 2 older daughters sharing another. The group was a good size and were all very friendly. Our guides Ariel and Jacob were so much fun. Lots of rowing but not too strenuous and we had plenty of down time to talk and get some history about the area and about the Kiwi sanctuary that we paddled up to. We were a little early for the sunset due to the long Summer days but it was absolutely wonderful. I would not hesitate to recommend this adventure for anyone wanting a wonderful experience whilst in the Franz Josef Glacier area. We even got sent lots of great photos to remember the experience forever.
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 experience! Lots of river crossings & different terrain! Rainforest beautiful! View of Franz Joseph glacier was added bonus!! Staff were excellent making sure you were following them! Bikes were easy to drive & we took one each!
