A definite 'must stop' for the whole family. The kids will love New Zealand's first model village. It is a magical place - you enter through the make-believe village of Gnomeland and past the Maori 'Pa' before reaching a 1/12th scale replica of Waiuta (once a thriving Goldmining town, now a ghost-town ) set outside on 1 acre of land, complete with miniature characters. Then step inside as the lights turn out and watch the model town of Reefton's house and street lights turn on - the first town in New Zealand to get electricity. Educational, fun and will keep the kids amused for hours!

This gentle, flat water float trip along the Arnold River takes you through some of the world's most beautiful rainforest scenery. Experience absolute silence which is broken only by the occasional birdcall.
Kids will love the trip too, with our 'Jungleboat Mystery' - 'Ahhh me Heartys! Where’s that Peter Pan & Wendy got to?!' We can't sprinkle fairly dust on them and make them fly, but kids will love making their own ‘Hook’ they can take away with them, plus playing in the Jungle Orchestra, put together on their cruise! Exact activities depend on kids' ages.

Take a fun trip through a natural cave - float along on tubes in the dark, with just a galaxy of glowworms to light your way, slide down a natural, underground waterfall and ride a 100 foot natural rock hydroslide! You can choose what activities you want to do as we make our way through the cave, so be as adventurous as you dare! Kids get to compete our 'Indiana Jones' fun challenge while learning how nature can make things glow in the dark!
