    Guide was very informative and we were the only ones on the tour.

    Saw nice sights and the pace was leisurely and relaxing.

    A great way to cover a lot of the Abel Tasman in one day!

    We loved that we could kayak and walk in one day. Long wait at the end of the walk which got a bit cold.

    Good boat trip up the Abel Tasman coastline.

    We arrived for the last trip at 4:15pm. Was a bit expensive at $50 and a shorter distance but stunning views, plus stunning seals on Adele Island!!

    We went to a beach in the Abel Tasman National Park by ferry.

    It was nice, but the ferry was too late for two times.

    Cruise commentary was interesting and informative and it is a great way to see and experience the whole park if you do not have time to walk the 4 to 5 day track.

    We did a water taxi trip from Kaiteriteri for a two hour walk.

    That was really great. Explanations on the boat are fine, so you get used to some great spots on the beachside.

    Very good but very expensive, especially because the track is easy to reach and you can easily rent a canoe.

    Not worthwhile spending so much money.

    I chose Wilson's Abel Tasman 5 day hike because it was one of the few guided hikes with lodging and meals available in October in a national park.

    The experience was wonderful: we were blessed with beautiful weather, our guides were extremely knowledgeable, the food at Meadowbank and Torrent Bay Lodge was generous and very, very good. In our group there was a variety of ages among the hikers. This contributed to interesting conversations during the hikes and around the dinner table. I would strongly recommend this experience to hikers looking for great walks with beautiful vistas but with the comforts that excellent meals and cosy lodgings provide.
