Client Testimonials

unforgiving beauty

You cannot come to this unique place and not be moved by its unforgiving beauty and the tales of those defeated in trying to tame it.
T. Pankhurst - New Zealand

I was inspired by the many stories that our guides told of the harsh challenges faced by the early pioneers of the area

The experience I had on your Hollyford Track tour is something that I will remember for many years to come.  It wasn't simply the scenery and the exercise in such a remote region that was enjoyable, but I was inspired by the many stories that our guides told of the harsh challenges faced by the early pioneers of the area, it created an atmosphere of adventure throughout the 3 days.  The meals provided for me at Pyke and Martins Bay Lodges were excellent, in fact, the meal at Pyke Lodge was better than many I have had in restaurants here in the UK.  I will be returning to New Zealand next year and will be booking a place on another one of your Hollyford Track tours as the experience is well worth repeating.

Wonderfully informative and engaging guides

I would like extend my appreciation to everyone concerned for making this one of the best holidays I have ever had. I was impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of all involved. Wonderfully informative and engaging guides, the hospitality, food and amenities at all the lodges were first class and the scenery exceeded my wildest expectations.

you may be treated to deep and mysteriously moody theatrics of mist, river, roaring surf, light and mountains that are heart flaringly beautiful

I don't know why nature is so moving to me and the kind of encounter that is possible on the Hollyford Track guided walk is New Zealand's wilderness at its most undisturbed, personalised and impressive. The tracks are easy to follow, but no highways, the accommodation comfortable, welcoming and good spirited. And depending on the weather you may be treated to deep and mysteriously moody theatrics of mist, river, roaring surf, light and mountains that are heart flaringly beautiful.
J. Campion - New Zealand

all involved genuinely enjoyed their jobs and had a real passion for the region and the walk itself

I want to say a HUGE thank you for allowing me to experience the Hollyford Track guided walk - what a fantastic experience!  Learning about the early settler history in the region has inspired me to learn more about the history of New Zealand - there is just so much to our country that I (and I guess a lot of people) don't know.  You could easily see that all involved genuinely enjoyed their jobs and had a real passion for the region and the walk itself.
