One of the most stunning sights is watching the western sun set over New Zealand's famous snow encrusted high peaks from the serenity of your stable kayak. WOW.
Ich habe schon mehrere Kajak-Trips in Neuseeland gemacht. Dieser war aber ein wenig anders, da zum Sonnenuntergang auf den See ging. Die Guides waren super nett, haben schöne Fotos gemacht und die Umgebung mit den Bergen ist einfach atemberaubend
Really lovely guide, amazing scenery, very relaxed - small group. We had a really nice time.
I fully enjoy this pleasure kayak guided tour, and it was an unforgettable experience. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly They provided a thorough safety briefing before we started, which made me feel comfortable, even as a beginner. Throughout the tour, they shared fascinating facts about the local wildlife, geography, and history of the area, making the journey educational as well as fun.
Thanks for the awesome review! We're so happy you enjoyed the tour and felt comfortable as a beginner. It’s great to hear you found the guides informative and the experience both fun and educational. Safe Travels! Cheers, Sydney and the Franz Josef Wilderness Tours team
2 nice and super friendly guides who showed us the beauty of this outstanding landscape and told us about the nature and the lake. Recommend the sunset tour, because the glaciers are fully in sunlight. You can enjoy the peace on the lake aswell!
Hi Ralfa, Thanks so much for your great review! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your tour out on the lake, it is a very tranquil part of the world. Safe Travels! Cheers, Sydney and the Franz Josef Wilderness Tours team

Schöne Tour
Die Abendtour auf dem Lake Mapourika ca. 8km nördlich von Franz Josef ist sehr zu empfehlen. Die beiden Guides waren geduldig und sehr nett. Durch die geschützte Lage ist die Tour auch für Leute ohne Kajakerfahrung geeignet. Die Berge im Hintergrund waren leider etwas in Wolken gehüllt.
