The experience was absolutely amazing. The instructors and camera flyers were professional, supportive, and made us feel completely safe throughout the jump.

We were met on time at the agreed location, driven to the 'drop off', fitted with helmets and bikes, given instructions on what to look for along the path. We hired ebikes (Bruno & Bennie) for the Hāwea & Wānaka 30km Trail (Grade 1-2 Family friendly). I would say 98% was down hill. We were told there was some tree works happening along the track, so we were met by Roger who then loaded our bikes & dropped us 2kms further down the track. We also stopped for pies at the Patisserie. We arrived in Wanaka with plenty of time to spare (& battery still avail on the bike). Great communication and team work by all the staff.

The tour is packed in one day. Very reasonable and worth the price. Our tour guide Andy is a safe driver, good at communicating and was also very generous in stopping at other beautiful spots apart from listed itinerary to take some shots. highly recommended.

We had a wonderful experience! They went out of their way to make special arrangements so our trip could still continue, especially since it was a special anniversary getaway for us. We truly appreciate their efforts. Bella was very accommodating and helpful throughout the process. Ryan was attentive and made sure to provide us with all the necessary information about the tour. Both made the experience smooth and enjoyable. We really enjoyed the trip and are grateful for their excellent service. Highly recommended! ❤️

What to know before visiting Wanaka

What to do in Wanaka throughout the year

Wanaka is best known for Outdoor & sports activities, followed by Museums, Tours and Water activities — those four categories lead bookings on Klook and set the city’s rhythm. Demand peaks in May when alpine and spring outdoor experiences attract visitors, while August is the quietest month according to Klook booking data. If you favour hiking, water-based days or active guided tours, plan around those seasonal shifts: choose between peak-season atmosphere and quieter off-peak time is the main decision here. All facts above are from Klook booking data and reflect typical booking patterns.

When to visit Wanaka — month by month

May is Wanaka’s busiest month, with demand rising notably, while August is the quietest time and also shows the lowest median prices on Klook. Prices across the year swing sharply: the priciest median price in the available window is SGD 329 in July, and the cheapest median price is SGD 24 in August, creating months that contrast busy season and bargain opportunities. For lower prices and smaller crowds, target August or September; for the full peak-season atmosphere book around May or July when activity levels are highest.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers from Singapore lock in activities around 12 days ahead, with the earliest planners booking about 32 days out, according to Klook booking data. Treat this as gentle planning: secure high-demand outdoor experiences for May and July sooner rather than later, while trips in August or September can be booked closer to travel for more flexibility. Klook’s booking data also shows many last‑minute options remain within 2 days of travel, so you can be spontaneous for quieter months. Book on Klook to compare typical timings and secure the experiences that matter to you.
