Wonderful afternoon - Highly recommend. Wonderful relaxing cruise and the hike is an easy walk. Yes, slightly uphill but good pace, one of our group walked in flip flops.

2 hour boat trip in paradise - A great trip out in the beautiful lake Wanaka which only improves when you get into it by boat. Small group so plenty of room on the boat. The little trek was fun with a stunning viewing point. The guide was friendly & most informative

A lovely excursion if you’re looking for things to do around Wanaka - Lovely relaxing boat trip in spectacular surroundings. The boat was very comfortable and the crew were friendly and informative. The island walk was very pretty… a bit quick but well worth seeing all the same.

Nice water activity in Wanaka - We booked this tour about an hour ahead of time and really enjoyed it. We had an afternoon that was semi-sunny and the water was pretty calm, but not glassy. There were 11 passengers in total. The boat ride was nice. We sat inside part of the time as enjoyed chatting with the captain. The nature walk was nice and the guide gave an interesting talk about nature and the area while we were at the top of the short hike. We fully enjoyed this activity after spending several hours hiking in the morning. There were people of all ages on the boat and it seemed like everybody was having a nice time.

Relaxed drive to Stevenson Island via Lake Wanaka - It was a nice and relaxing ride over Lake Wanaka. The panorama was great. On the island there was a 10 minute hike to the highest point. There you had the opportunity to take pictures and you got about 15 minutes of information about the island and the surrounding area.
