our guides zoe and carol were patient and kind- we had two children with us which meant we were slower and a bit more chaotic but the ladies were calm and nice to us.


Krissy

We had a wonderful day on the kayaks. Ed was a fantastic host who provided us with a lot of interesting information about the national park We would definitely recommend this tour

Henry Tomsett

Prachtige wandeling en fijn om met een kleine groep te kayakken. Abel Tasman is écht supermooi!


Judith

The 3 day freedom kayak was a wonderful way to experience the beauty of Abel Tasman park. We also rented a tent which was great. They make everything easy and the experience was great value.

#ABELTASMANKAYAKS

Raft up your kayaks, take a breather, and soak it all in - the calm, the colours, the coastline.

Sometimes the best way to explore is to pause, appreciate, and let the adventure settle in around you.

Most days out here are sunny and golden ☀️ — but every now and then, the rain rolls through. And honestly? It still makes for an awesome trip. 🌧️🌊

The colours pop, and the adventure vibes crank up a notch. Rain or shine, it’s always a good day to explore the Abel Tasman.

Golden light, calm seas, and a coastline waking up in the most magical way - and a fresh brew makes it even better. ☕💛🌅✨

Explore the Abel Tasman in all its duality — even from the water. 🌿🌊
Where lush bush drops right down to sea level, and every paddle stroke takes you between two worlds.
