About this activity

Leave the hustle and bustle of the concrete jungle behind you and spend a day in one of the most beautiful National Parks in the world.

Choose your own activity level before entering the park and rest assured that your expert guide will give you undivided attention and make your experience unforgettable.

Indulge yourself in local cuisine by tasting award wining local cheese at a family run farm and perhaps enjoy peka, a dish prepared under a cast iron bell. As the sun sets, finish your day with a relaxing drive, casual atmosphere, friendly chatter and with memories for a lifetime.
