Glenstrae Farm 4 Wheel Adventures
This is a great trip with quality Honda quad bikes.
I found the steering a little heavy at first (no power steering) and consequently went a little too slow for some of those following. I am 65 and don't do adrenalin rushes but I am sure I enjoyed it just as much. The views are fantastic and Alastair seemed to pitch the pace for the slowest rider and told the ones behind to wait for a while and give us a head start if they wanted to go faster. The tracks are narrow in places with deep groves but nothing that these great bikes can not handle. This is a far more enjoyable ride than the other commercialised rides we have found in other places. Bes!t yet. Do it

Kaikoura Kayaks
Admittedly we had a perfect morning for a kayak trip but our experience with this company was first class from start to finish.
Their equipment was in excellent condition, most was new or nearly new. Our leader was very professional, curtious and knowledgable. We felt safe under his supervision even though we had little experience of kayaking. We can highly recommend this company and their trips.
Thank you for your feedback, glad you enjoyed your tour, we hope you enjoyed the rest of travels around New Zealand

Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa
We tried this experience for 6 hours on a beautiful sunny day during the end of the school holidays.
We enjoyed it and found all the staff, especially the lifeguards, very friendly and approachable. They seemed to enforce the safety rules in a pleasant and professional manner. It was busy but plenty of pools to choose from. There was a lack of sunchairs and this could easily be addressed. We would have preferred a better choice of more healthy food rather than junk food.
