Feedback about our guided walks

"A walk through wonderland! Your enthusiasm and knowledge, how infectious. You effortlessly mored two 'older' trampers from sheep to keas, and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Truly a day we will not forget. Thank you" John & Suzanne Barr, Oakland, California, Nov. 2005

"Consistently entertaining and informative trip up the valley and hillside to Rob Roy glacier. Wonderful to have a guide who knows the botany, geology and fauna of the area and has a real enthusiasm for the land and its history. Thanks!" Keith & Diana Roberts, USA
