This 3 hour trip takes you way up a glacial valley, away from wanaka towards NZ's beautiful Mt Aspiring, by jet boat via the Matukituki valley.

Knowledgable guides recount a story of the land and the people who have populated it since records began.

At the upper reaches of the Valley you can see Rob Roy Glacier as it groans and breaks, and a walk through the native bush transports you into a fine misted world of minutiae that carpets our bush floors - it is breathtakingly beautiful.

If you are lucky enough to take in the heli option it is well worth it. Now that is gobsmacking!

Its a trip you will never forget, and are privileged to share.
