Reviews: Cardrona Valley Mountain Quad Experience from Wanaka
Guest User2024-10-03
Went on the quad bike tour.
It was a rare weather day for heavy snow in the area, we lucked out on such a unique experience – I hope some future customers luck out in the same way.
Guides were helpful and willing to have fun! They were great photographers too!
This was the first time I ever touched snow and what a magnificent way to do so near the peaks at Cardrona Valley!★

Reviews: Ufly flight experience in Wanaka, Queenstown, New Zealand
Guest User2025-05-07
The staff is very enthusiastic and professional. Every step and action is explained very carefully. It gives me a lot of authority in the degree of freedom of control. For a person who has never driven an aircraft, he basically learns the operation knowledge required to fly. For newbies who want to take the advanced light flight license, it is a good opportunity to know whether it is suitable for flying. Watching WANAKA LAKE in the sky is very beautiful, it is highly recommended for people who have not tried to fly to see
