Come and play with the birds and the bugs and explore the more remote locations of Lake Wanaka on this good old fashioned Kiwi camping trip. Kayak across Lake Wanaka to one of the incredible islands and camp out overnight for a truly special way to experience the beauty of this region.
Meet your friendly local guide to get kitted out with a kayak and all of your safety equipment before setting off across Lake Wanaka. Discover the best and secret spots on the lake as you head towards one of the beautiful islands. You’ll spend about four hours kayaking, led by your trusty guide as they share their wealth of knowledge and local history.
Enjoy an island walk before setting up camp on your island for the evening. If the weather is kind you may get to sleep under the night sky and watch out for the Southern stars! With all meals provided, this is a fantastic take on the Kiwi camping experience.
The next morning involves a 20 minute kayak portage before your paddle back to Wanaka. What an amazing way to explore such a beautiful region, all set to a stunning backdrop of the Southern Alps.

Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
