Amazing Trip!

Although we live locally, having parents over from the UK enabled us to 'act the tourist' and see more of what is in our own backyard! And what a treat it was! A great trip on Lake Wanaka on the Wanaka Water Taxi, landing on Stephenson's Arm, and then travelling by 4x4 vehicle onto farmland not able to be accessed otherwise. This is a must do trip - the views are amazing, looking over the lake and surrounding mountains; Charlie, our Guide was very informative and pleasant, the picnic was lovely, and the weather made it a stunning day. Whether you are visiting Wanaka, or if you live locally like us and don't have a boat, you have to do this trip - it's food for the soul!

Awesome !

What a thoroughly wonderful trip we had, loved it! An exhilarating boat trip,followed by a 4x4 ride to beat them all. Vieuws all around and never ending foto opportunities, all presented with a lot of local knowledge. And followed by a more than splendid picnic that beat our expectations. A tour run by wonderful people who give their all. Well done.
