RIVER FISHING TRIPS

Start your full day adventure with a hotel pickup in our 4WD. Upon departure from the hotel you will be escorted for a 1-2 hr drive through some of New Zealand’s most pristine scenery to some of the most sought-after fishing spots in the world. High country rivers and streams are in abundance in the area and getting there is no problem with one of our 4WDs. If boats are not your thing then this is a great alternative option for a full day out.

Walk and wade through the rivers to spot and stalk some mighty brown and rainbow trout in some of the world’s finest trout fisheries. Every step of the way you’ll be guided by our local expert team.
