What you can expect

  • The Original Franz Josef Kayak Adventure Awaits

    Glide effortlessly across the water taking in the panoramic views of the Southern Alps, glaciers, and untouched Jurassic rainforest reflected on the glassy waters of Lake Mapourika.

    Paddle into the heart of the Okarito Kiwi Sanctuary, exploring the protected area with your knowledgeable guide.

    Tours depart at various times throughout the day. Mornings are often the calmest time of the day on the lake, a perfect time for photographers to capture the beauty of this area.

    We provide all specialised kayak equipment to keep you warm, dry and having fun! Our guides are also trained in photography, and will snap pictures of your journey along the way.

    We will even provide you with these photos FREE after your tour.
