We had a really great time on our float tour yesterday. The guide was excellent and it was a great way to spend a few hours taking in the amazing scenery.

This was a very peaceful and enjoyable float. Even with the weather being overcast, we had a great time kayaking. Eloise was a fantastic guide. She took care of everything and answered all of our questions. Definitely recommend the trip with her.

George was amazing guiding us through the Wataiko River. Felt very safe and lovely paddling down the river. It was raining but still was a lovely adventure. Would do this again!

We had a great morning paddle on the river with George as our awesome guide. The river was flowing and it was a very easy and beautifully scenic paddle. George showed us a nice geothermal pool to soak in along the way and we watched bungee jumpers in a beautiful George. We originally were doing the rock carving tour but it was cancelled due to high winds. We were initially going to cancel but opted for this paddle….. so glad we did. It was a great experience. Thanks George 👍

Everything went smoothly. We would have liked the outing to last longer as the views from the river were nice. The bungee jumping area lookout was interesting but the blasting music kind of disturb the calm feeling of the river. Very nice crew!

This was one of the most stunning kayaks I have ever done! I took a group of youth here for an adventure weekend and could not recommend it more. It was stunning, the staff (Sacha and Lisa) were an absolute delight - 10/10!
