Descripción

Esta es una aventura como ninguna otra, remar en uno de los ríos de montaña más espectaculares de Nueva Zelanda en nuestras divertidas balsas inflables. Comience su día lleno de acción con un recorrido panorámico en autobús bajo las imponentes montañas, glaciares y cascadas del valle de Matukituki. Después de tomar un refrigerio, ponerse el equipo, recibir instrucciones sobre seguridad y aprender a remar antes de dirigirse río abajo en nuestras estables y fuertes balsas. Súbete a los trenes de olas, rema en tranquilos remolinos y flota con el flujo del río. Disfrute de un almuerzo tipo picnic en la orilla del río y juegue en pozas de color turquesa mientras continúa remando río abajo. Cuando termine el día, su guía lo tendrá remando como un profesional. Lo acompañará uno de nuestros amigables perros de "apoyo al transporte" durante el viaje. Infórmenos si esto podría ser un problema para usted y podremos arreglar lo contrario.

Best experience!

Absolutely incredible! Amazing exploration though the stunning wild glacial valley on the river rafting tour. Very accessible rafting for beginners, informative guide and great photos taken. Best experience to be had in Wanaka!

Respuesta del operador

Absolutely incredible — your words! Thank you so much. The Matukituki Valley really is something else, and we love that packrafting makes it accessible for all levels. So glad the photos came out well too — something to remember the valley by!

Amazing Pack rafting on the Matukituki River

This pack rafting experience on the Matukituki river is amazing. Our driver Sue was super friendly and we stopped at the beautiful Wishbone waterfall on the way up the valley. Guides Maya and Kaylee made sure we were safe and that we all had a fun time on the river. The scenery is absolutely stunning. Tasty, gourmet sandwiches awaited us after our paddling. If you get the chance, do this trip!

Respuesta del operador

Thank you! Sue, Maya, and Kaylee are a brilliant team — and the Wishbone waterfall stop is always a favourite. So glad you got time on the river and enjoyed the sandwiches too! The Matukituki is a very special place and we love sharing it. Hope to see you back!

Great Day on the Matukituki River!

Wow! Just Wow! An 11 on a scale of 10! A perfect (mild) adventure thanks to perfect Wanaka weather, the professional organization, and our friendly and considerate guide, Pete, and driver, Kaylee. This is an extremely well-organized day from the timely pick up, the scenic drive to the Matukituki River at Raspberry Flat with about 25k on gravel roads, the leisurely float down the river with enough minor rapids to make it interesting, and the smooth return to civilization. The price is more than reasonable for the quality of the experience. The water level was low, but that didn’t affect the stunning scenery. Our group had the river to ourselves. The paddling and safety equipment was all top notch. The 2-person inflatable kayak was easy to handle and survived a couple of, oops, scrapes along the bottom. Pete’s instructions were clear and delivered with a Kiwi sense of humor and a smile. It was clear that he loves his job and SAFELY sharing the river with visitors. If (when?) we return to NZ again, we would love to book another ride down the Matukituki River.

Respuesta del operador

An 11 out of 10 — we'll take that! Pete and Kaylee will absolutely love reading this. You've captured everything we hope every guest gets — the stunning drive to Raspberry Flat, the river to yourselves, Pete's clear instructions with a Kiwi smile, and the magic of floating through that valley. We'd love to have you back on the Matukituki if you make it to NZ again!

Great time, even with the low water.

Great views and great guide. The river was low, but that was to be expected during the drought. Still made it even with low levels. Nice peaceful ride. Thank you!!

Respuesta del operador

Thank you — we're so glad the views and the guide made it worthwhile even with the low water! Drought conditions can be unpredictable, but the Matukituki Valley has a way of delivering on scenery no matter what the river is doing. A peaceful ride through that landscape is pretty special in itself. Hope to see you back on the water again!

Would definitely recommend!

This was a really well planned trip, interesting commentary from the tour guides and got to see some back country that would be difficult to see otherwise. We had sue as our driver and Kayleigh as our river guide, both were excellent!

Respuesta del operador

Getting to see backcountry that most people never reach is exactly what Packraft Wanaka is all about — and we're so glad Sue and Kayleigh made it special. They're a great team on the water and on land. Thanks so much for the recommendation, Lloyd — really means a lot to us!

Fantastic day packrafting

We had a fantastic packraft trip. The entire team was fun and very professional, from Sue driving the shuttle bus, to Kaylee and Brent guiding us down the river. The scenery was spectacular. Definitely worth every $ spent on the trip.

Respuesta del operador

What a team! Sue, Kaylee and Brent will love reading this — they each bring something special to the day and it's great to hear that came through from shuttle to river. The scenery on that stretch is just incredible and we're so glad it was worth every dollar. Thank you for the wonderful review!

Wonderful way to experience NZ back country.

Kaliegh and Johnny did an excellent job. I was impressed with Johnny's driving, really cautious yet got us there timely. Because of road conditions we took a jet boat up the river. What a fun surprise that was. Kaliegh guided us on a hike for about 30-minutes with our gear. Be prepared for a bit of carrying through the woods. But, you'll get to see backcountry that you'd never have imagined otherwise. Lunch was amazing, a lot more food and yummy than I imagined. Kaliegh provided great information, all meant to help us have more fun out of the experience. She guided us through rapids and helped us find the best path for safety and a fun experience. But the biggest factor, you'll see NZ back country inaccessible in any other way. You won't see a car for hours. Nothing to hear but nature. Terrific fun time. Professional team. Highly recommend.

Respuesta del operador

Kaliegh and Johnny will love reading this — what a wonderful review! We're glad the jet boat surprise was a fun twist, and that Kaliegh's guiding through the rapids and into the backcountry hit the mark. That's exactly the experience we want people to have — truly inaccessible New Zealand, with nothing but nature and great company. So glad the lunch exceeded expectations too! Thank you for the generous words and the high recommendation.
