Travel Specialist

I'm here to tailor-make your perfect Queenstown holiday. Give me a call and I'll use my expertise to create your personalised experience.

Your Dart River adventure begins with a scenic drive along the shores of Lake Wakatipu, through some of New Zealand's Lord of the Rings filming locations, to Glenorchy. This is where the adventure starts with an exhilarating jet boat trip up the Dart River, with adrenaline-pumping 360 jet spins. Race along the braided shallow river into the heart of the dramatic Mount Aspiring National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Disembark on the river edge for part two of your Dart River Adventure, drifting and paddling downstream in an inflatable canoe. Stop amongst an ancient beech forest for a sumptuous buffet style lunch. Continue your downstream paddle to 'Paradise' where your adventure concludes and transfer to Queenstown awaits. This action-packed full day of exploration takes you in to the natural, untouched beauty New Zealand is so famous for.
