Description
Join us on a kayak adventure across one of New Zealand's most scenic mountain lakes within the Southern Alps.
Two great kayaking tours leave from Glenorchy's shores at the head of Lake Wakatipu, only 40 minutes from Queenstown.

Once you have explored the island you can relax on the beach and enjoy our refreshments before kayaking back to the mainland.

Dinner on Sunset
This tour takes you on a quiet paddle across the confluences of the Dart and Rees rivers at the head of lake Wakatipu. Land up on the beach in front of historic Kinloch Lodge and join me for a special dinner prepared by the chef at kinloch.
Relax and soak in the evening over dinner and enjoy and quiet paddle home as the shadows build amongst the mountains.
