You may be thinking “is this trip suitable for me and my ability?"

Not very courageous – Go in a duckie with a guide

Under the professional care of our experienced river guides enjoy this epic trip on the untouched Te Awa Kairangi.

A medium level of fitness is required!











Flow dependent



There are limitation’s on river flow levels for these duckie trips due to rainfall. On the day of your booking, if the river is too high you will be guided down the river in one of our 8-person rafts for an exhilarating, high-flow trip. Generally, through the summer months, the river levels are too low for rafting except after decent rainfall.


Duckies are a challenging but exciting and extremely fun way to navigate your way down the epic river we have in Wellington’s backyard.
