Packrafting Queenstown

What an amazing adventure…8 x 50+ women hiking & Packrafting in the picturesque Rees Valley. Our guides were amazing, knowledgeable & caring. We are all so glad you have this wonderful experience….nothing short of spectacular. Would highly recommend next time you’re in Queenstown.

This was an experience we will never forget!! Eliska was AWESOME& We had the best time, even despite the weather being not the best, as 6 inexperienced packrafters- Eliska gave us the best guidance possible. She was so amazing and made the day so great. It’s a long scenic walk through the mountains and cow pastures, with all the equipment, up the river and then you get to have some lunch and get your packraft together and paddle down the river. Very beginner friendly but pushes you out of your comfort zone if you haven’t done something like this before. Elsika was so patient with us through the process and truly made it comfortable and fun! So happy we booked this and definitely recommend to others.

Did the “License to Chill” trip as a family of three with our young teenager today. The Rees Valley was epic, one of the most beautiful spots we visited in New Zealand. Our guide Jeremy was awesome—super high energy and helpful. A great dude. And the overall experience could not have been better. Big recommendation if you’re an active family.

We’ve been in NZ for 3 weeks and this was hands down our favourite experience of the trip. From the second we were picked up we had a blast. Luc and Eliska were incredible guides. They made everyone instantly comfortable and were so wonderful to talk to and get to know on the drive over and on the hike. The hike was stunning and not difficult at all. The packs weren’t heavy. The lunch was delicious. The rafting was so much fun and made even better with the guidance of our two wonderful guides. This was exactly the day we were hoping for and it was perfect!! Nothing like spending hours outside in the most beautiful setting with a great group of people. We’re just sad we can’t do it all over again!!

The Reece river valley is absolutely stunning! We were so pleased with our guide, Pascal. He provided knowledge and perspective yet allowed plenty of quiet time to soak in the beauty and grandeur of this special place. Do it! You won’t regret it

A real New Zealand experience. The guide was fantastic with her knowledge and skills. An a amazing communicator to share her knowledge and skills to teach us and keep us safe. I would highly recommend this trip

If I could give more stars I would! Me and my partner had a fantastic day on the Matukituki river for my birthday. Our guide Luke was the GOAT! He was kind, knowledgeable and funny! It just felt like we were hanging out with a good mate, we also learnt a lot from him! The views were absolutely incredible in the valley! The day was very chilled and laid back and we had a blast in the pack rafts! I’d absolutely do it again! I can’t recommend this company enough! Thanks for a great day

I have already taken 2 trips. The first on the Rees River and the second on the Matukituki. Both with the best guide Eliska. It was a fantastic day spent under experienced guidance and everyone enjoyed it very much. Everything is well prepared, planned and safe. Eliska always helped, explained and added fun stories from the past plus interesting facts about the place. I would go again and can only recommend.

We had the BEST time on our packrafting trip at Mount Aspiring. One of our favourite activities in NZ so far. Eliska was a brilliant instructor and taught us all the basics. We felt very safe and learned so much under her guidance. Highly recommend this activity to anyone with a sense of adventure!!!

Amazing! We we're first time packrafters with limited paddling experience and this adventure was spot on. A little challenging, a lot of fun, stunning scenery and a super friendly guide. Couldn't have asked for a better day out. If you're thinking of doing this, stop thinking and just do. You'll love it!
