Review for: Mou Waho Island Cruise & Nature Walk

Incredible views and friendly guide! I had an amazing time, but the hill and terrain was pretty steep.

Review for: Mou Waho Island Cruise & Nature Walk

Nice cruise ride, the cruise getting bumpy as it approaching the lake entrance, those passengers at the rear deck did enjoy some water slashing over head and body. Nice view at the top of mountain and get to see the lake on the mountain and mountain in the (bigger) lake below.

Review for: Mou Waho Island Cruise & Nature Walk

It's the worst. I went out and waited 30 minutes before the reservation time, but no one came out, and the phone call was not connected. I left an inquiry and an email, but there was no response or explanation. I sent Klook a photo of me waiting at the meeting place at the time, and received a refund, but I was really looking forward to this tour and I received a refund accordingly. I adjusted the schedule, but it was canceled very irresponsibly. If the consumer cancels on the same day, the guide is compensated for the reservation amount, but it is natural for us consumers to be damaged by the guide's tyranny. Not to mention, there is no apology.

Good to know

  • Carbon positive trip (We are Wanaka's first carbon positive operator. Every trip plants native forest in NZ)
  • Our knowledgeable guide will accompany you on the island walk and share insights on the geology, history, flora and fauna and local culture of the region. A truly immersive experience!
  • Enjoy a comfortable cruise on our 28 seat super taxi Moutimu and a knowledgeable Kiwi skipper - Lets Go!
  • We are contracted to the Department of Conservation and every guest contributes to funding the conservation work on Mou Waho Island!
  • Mou Waho Island is a predator free Department of Conservation nature reserve with a natural glacial formed lake at its summit. Here you can see first-hand results of conservation efforts including the rare flightless Buff Weka (extinct on the mainland since 1920), the Mountain Stone Weta and many other native birds.
  • A two hour guided nature walk is included for those that choose the guided option. This will take you up to the natural glacial lake right on top of the island and magnificent mountain and lake scenery in every direction.
  • From there our guide will take you even higher to the lookout rock for some of the regions most spectacular views and the outstanding photo opportunities.
