Your expert guide will bring to life the diversity of landscapes, vegetation and wildlife within this beautiful valley, as well as the captivating stories of the original Maori and early pioneers. The experiences are just as diverse and include hiking through ‘World Heritage’ wilderness, native wildlife encounters, wilderness jet-boating, exploring historical sites, and a scenic helicopter flight to Milford Sound.

You'll walk through the rainforest of our South West coast and this location can experience high rainfall. Fiordland has one of the highest levels of rainfall in the world! Whilst this can make it spectacular and contributes to the beautiful flora, it also means that the track can be very wet, muddy and slippery. Likewise the creeks can rise rapidly, and therefore our groups often have to walk through water and mud – hence good quality, waterproof hiking boots are essential.
