Journey
by horseback, kayak, boat or on foot across farmland, along beaches,
down rivers or in the native bush. Spend a day fly-fishing on private
farmland, exploring primeval bush or listening to local Maori (kaumatua)
quietly tell you of the history, culture and the experiences of
his family and his land. Visit modern and traditional artists to
understand their lives, materials and philosophies.
Our
philosophy is to deliver a top quality interactive experience, distinctively
different in that it challenges ideas and allows an unusual free
exchange of ideas coupled with highly enjoyable activites and intuitive
and responsive guiding.
