All Wanaka Tours & Excursions in 2026

A private six-hour charter gives your group the boat and skipper exclusively. With more time and no other guests to consider, we can shape the experience around your interests, whether that means learning to fish as a family, exploring more of the lake or spending longer on techniques that interest experienced anglers. Your skipper can adapt the pace, fishing methods and level of guidance throughout the day, giving you a genuinely personal experience rather than a fixed itinerary. Once fishing, our fully electric trolling motor means no engine noise. Its GPS route-following system can guide the boat along the fishing route, leaving your skipper free to spend more time helping your group, talking fishing and sharing local knowledge. Quality fishing gear, a comfortable purpose-built boat, locally sourced treats and cold drinks make this a relaxed and immersive private experience on Lake Hāwea.

Climb your way up to some otherwise-inaccessible views of Lake Wānaka and Mt. Aspiring National Park on this full-day private rock climbing trip in the Matukituki Valley. If you’re new to climbing, learn from your qualified instructor without competing for attention on a private tour. More experienced climbers will find challenging routes suited to their skills and opportunities to develop their skills further in a beautiful setting.
