Once you've got your fill of water action, step into the wilderness with your guide. Discover the stunning Fiordland National Park and learn about the unique flora and fauna of the area. Discover ancient, native beech forest that's remained unchanged for 80 million years and hear stories of indigenous Maori culture.

Afterwards, it's time to get sky high with a flight over the Lake Te Anau shores. You'll take a scenic trip up to Jackson Peak, elevated at 1622 metres above sea level. Land here and snap some photos of the stunning scenery. An unbelievable vista awaits you.

After you've captured that picture perfect moment, it's time to fly again! Pass over ancient forests and take in the unique environment of the Fiordland National Park. Glacier-carved fjords, sandy shores and towering mountains will wow you.
