Embark on the experience of a lifetime, paddling New Zealand’s breathtaking mountain rivers in inflatable pack rafts. Begin with a scenic shuttle through the stunning Matukituki Valley, beneath towering mountains and glaciers. Stop to admire Avalanche Glacier and enjoy refreshments before gearing up to head downriver. Paddle through gentle wave trains, cruise into calm eddies and drift along with the flow of the river. If you’re feeling bold, take a dip in the Matukituki’s famous turquoise swimming holes. By day’s end, you’ll paddle like a pro, immersed in the perfect blend of fun and adventure.
