Great experience!!

Thanks Douglas for this amazing Tour!! One of the best things Ive done so far in NZ. Amazing landscape in the Matukituki-Valley, great views of Lake Wanaka and the surrounding mountains. Douglas is a very funny, kind and interesting host with many stories about the landescape and the animals.

Misty Mountain Tour

Great trip beautiful scenery we would not have experienced without this tour, we took some amazing photos of the mountains & waterfalls. Doug was very knowledgeable on the area and nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Wanaka.

Amazing Guide

Doug is the most knowledgeable guide. We didn't have great weather the day we were booked with him and didn't have time to re-schedule but on a cold rainy day he did his darnedest to give us enough of a tour of the misty mountains. As the weather wasn't agreeable that day we couldn't see much of the mountains nor go walking/fishing, but he will tell you everything about the area and take you down back roads exploring parts you'd never get to see in a "normal" vehicle. And he even spotted a pair of Kea's so close to the road- we were able to capture great photos of. He is super friendly and will tailor your guide to what you want to do, I can only imagine what it would be like on a nice day. That being said, I'm not sure what better way we could have spent our time on a super cold and rainy day than driving through the backroads of the Misty Mountains.

Misty Mountain Tour

I booked the tour in January 2023 and it turned out to be private tour for just the 2 of us. It could not have been any better. Doug has all the local knowledge about the mountains, plants, history etc. I only highly recommend Misty Mountain Explorer.

Wonderful rainy afternoon

Doug drove us all the way out to the valley in his big comfortable car and told us all about the area and his love for it on the way there. We got to experience the mountains in all of it’s beauty on a rainy day in all the comfort you can imagine. Would highly recommend!
