"The Island within a lake with its own lake & island. Really great experience, from the initial phone call, to making it happen. VERY PROFESSIONAL, FRIENDLY, & SAFETY FOCUSED.
Great people, Mike, & Matt my guide were awesome.
Highly recommended."

"We had a great time on the Lake with Mike on the jet skis. He was very generous with the time allowed for the adventure and he was very patient with our shenanigans playing on the jet skis.
Great time & value for money doing this adventure as a group."

"The best activity we did whilst in Wanaka. Micheal took us on an exhilarating ride but balanced it off brilliantly with knowledge about the lake and Clutha river. Would do again at the drop off a hat!"

"Awesome half day on the lake using the boat for hire. We visited the islands and inlet and had a heap of fun. The boat was in good condition, worked well and helped make the day a great one."
Kenneth B - Tripadvisor - January 22
"The 2 girls that helped us with the kayaks were awsome so friendly and nothing was a problem! When we got back from our 1hr paddle she let our 2 boys keep their life jackets on so they could swim in the shallows and jump off the dock for another hour. The boys loved it!"
