We provide guests with personal, informative and relaxed eco-style tours which walk at your pace, with plenty of opportunities to take photos, stand under waterfalls, hold ice out of the river and treasure hunt for native flowers, birds, mushrooms and wildlife. Stop for a cup of tea with magnificent views and a chat with your experienced guide. All our half day tours are suitable for all ages and abilities; backpackers, couples and families including young children.
Join us on a REAL nature tour of our beautiful area in Aotearoa New Zealand.
