My husband and I took a fabulous back country 4 wheel drive on West Wanaka station with our guide Lloyd. He was so knowledgeable about the history, farming, the flora and fauna and incredibly interesting. The scenery was achingly beautiful. Delicious lunch and afternoon tea was provided in the most spectacular settings. I would recommend this tour most highly.

This 4WD tour of a working ranch was excellent. while we didn't see much of the actual ranch operation, we drove all over the vast Wanaka Station Ranch and learned a lot about its history and operation. Our guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable and friendly and definitely contributed greatly to our satisfaction with the tour. Of particular interest to us was learning about Ridgeline's work with the rancher to try to eliminate the invasive species (mainly possums and stoats) that were introduced to curb the growth of another introduced species (rabbits) and instead wound up devasting the local bird populations. This is an issues through NZ, and everywhere we visited we saw evidence of the ongoing efforts to eliminate these animals and to restore threatened bird species. We also learned a lot about the local fauna and how it evolved the way it did.

I booked this Wild Hills Safari tour on a whim just a day before our flight from Singapore to New Zealand, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide, Brent, was fantastic—an excellent driver and incredibly knowledgeable. We learned so much about local conservation efforts, including the traps set to control pests like weasels and possums. He also shared fascinating insights into Wanaka’s farming history from the 1800s and the diverse plant life in the mountains. The short hike up the mountain was absolutely worth it—the panoramic view of Lake Wanaka under clear blue skies was breathtaking. We truly appreciated the warm hospitality, including the delicious coffee, tea, and fruit cake. Apologies for arriving a little late due to parking our caravan! Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Wanaka.

Lloyd Thayer drove us into a rugged 30,000 acre sheep farm and up vertiginous tracks high above Lake Wanaka. What a drive if jangling on the nerves: great views of the farm, the stock (sheep, cattle and deer) and, of course, the dry and beautiful countryside especially across the lake. Throughout Lloyd was a mine of information - in particular the history of the farm, stock farming, the farm environment and how farmers look after their environment at the same time as working their farms. The more we asked him, the more he told us. He showed us the original homestead and a stoat trap. We had tea at a spectacular high point looking down Lake Wanaka. In summary, this was a wonderful afternoon with a wonderful guy, and we could not fault him as a guide. Terrific. Highly recommended!
