Country: Malta
Duration:
04:00 hours
Description
Enjoy the best of both worlds with this boat and 4x4 tour of Wanaka. See views from both the lake and land. From start to finish, journey off the beaten path.
Climb aboard a water taxi and cross Lake Wanaka towards the head of Stevenson’s arm. Gaze at the constantly changing vista of steep walls and alpine peaks. Learn about the fascinating history of this area devoid of people. Venture past Stevenson’s Island and disembark at the foot of Mount Burke.
Board a 4x4 vehicle with your guide, and climb high above the lake. Take in the expansive panorama of crystal clear water and the rugged summits of Mount Aspiring National Park. Breathe in the quiet solitude of Wanaka. Hear stories of the early settlers who sought farmland, gold, and a better life in New Zealand.
Enjoy a gourmet open-air picnic. Choose between a morning tea menu of fruit and muffins with tea and coffee, or an afternoon menu of fruit, cheese and crackers and local wine (red, white, or rose) or of course a non alcoholic drink. For groups of 4 or more we can give you the choice to have morning tea in the afternoon instead and vice versa.
It's a truly special experience to be on the hill with only a max of 5 people. But if you are a group of 5 or more we can do a trip for you, just ask to open up more spaces for a private trip for just your group.
