      Coastal & Rainforest Ecotour

We delight in taking you, or directing you,  to share the beauty and ecology of some of the New Zealand's unspoilt wild places.

"to walk...

along these lonely beaches is akin to taking a guided tour of a renaissance cathedral; but here the treasures are fossils, the middens left by Maori communities, the yellow eyed penguins, the ancient podocarp forests full of rimu, totara, matai and rata and the kingfishers, tuis and bellbirds."

This very special ecotour, whether self-driven or personally guided shows ...
  a place where time has stood still...
