We had a great day exploring all these extraordinary places at Golden Bay. Wayne, the tourguide, told us so much about nature, history and the Maori culture, so we learned something about New Zealand. On top of that, we had lots of fun!

Lucy's wealth of information about the area's history, economy & especially the local flora & fauna made for an amazing day. Our upcoming trek on Abel Tasman will be so much richer because of our increased appreciation for the wildlife.

A stunning set of locations with a lot of variety packed in. It was a rainy day so we were all aware we weren't seeing the locations at their best but they still looked incredible. Our tour guide Lucy worked around the weather to adjust plans and make our trip as comfortable and memorable as possible. Lucy's local and national knowledge of NZ was flawless and she gave us all lots of travel ideas and advice as well as unique local insights. A really excellent day overall despite disappointing weather.
