The Sea Kayak Company
4.0/5
My husband and I are 25 and we chose the half day tonga island kayak trip.
It was beautiful weather and our guide Sally was informative as well as fun. The trip was not extremely physically tasking and we saw seals, penguins, and lots of birds. A great way to experience Abel Tasman National Park.

Tongariro Alpine Crossing
4.5/5
My husband and I are 25 and we hiked the tongariro crossing on an awful day (weather wise) and we still enjoyed it!
It was a difficult hike as it rained and blew 50-75k winds. We were able to see some interesting terrain even if the visibility was low. Would love to hike it again in better weather sometime, but even in poor conditions, a worthwhile hike.

Cruzy Campers
3.5/5
My husband and I are from the US and we were worried about driving a campervan on the opposite side of the road with a left hand stick shift, but it really felt like the best way to travel and sleep in
New Zealand. Andrew was great at explaining the ins and outs of campervan driving. Andrew provided us with a new zealand cell phone and a gps (extra$) but necessary. Our only complaint is that the campervan was very tall and narrow with a short wheel base so it handled poorly on windy days (which was every day). The price is awesome, the main selling point for us.
Hi Rachel,
you experienced a really windy time when you were here. Early November was very unseasonable.
Any high sided vehicle will react in the same way. Taller people enjoy the head room in these vans.
I hope you enjoyed your time in New Zealand.
regards Andrew

Frogz Have More Fun
4.5/5
I am 25 and I love boogie boarding during the summer on the ocean.
When I found out you could boogie board down rapids, I was sold! My husband and I had a great time! The guides were informative as well as skilled and strong. I didn't realize the physical work involved in this sport and I went off course several times, but a guide was always there to steer me back. You can pay for pictures and video at the end of the trip.

The Legendary Black Water Rafting Co.
4.5/5
My husband and I are 25 and we thoroughly enjoyed this experience!
It was an exciting way to be able to experience the glow worms. The guides were informative as well safety conscious. Some skill was required to climb out of the cave, but there is an easy way out apparently. No cameras are allowed in the cave but you can buy pictures after the trip.
