Great day out

I had a great time on the tour yesterday. Totaranui beach wasn’t as amazing as it’s hyped up to be but still a beautiful beach. Karin is so knowledgeable about nz history, fauna and flora. Takaka was a great lunch stop, lots of nice shops and a Saturday market, great food places. The springs at the end were wonderful.

Amazing views, nice people and well organised tour

Highly recommended to go and see the best of the best around the top of the South Island with Karin and her Tasman Tours. Clean and comfortable van/mini bus. Very gentle rides. Well explained local history and geography. The cafe in Takaka that Karin recommended offers the best bakeries/pies that you can't normally find in busy cities. Light to medium exercise level (only a couple of 20 minute walks). Overall, it was an unforgettable tour. I'll definitely recommend my friends and colleagues to join Karin's tours. Thanks Karin for making my Nelson trip much much better than I expected. Ta.

A very professional and friendly team made our first parachute jump a fantastic experience. 13000ft hooked up safely with my experienced "buddy"and instructor they told me exactly what to expect. It was fabulous and I never felt anxious.

Great outfit - great first time experience

From getting checked in to jumping out ... I felt like I was in great hands. We had to switch my jump from 16.5k ot 13k - fine by me. It was my first jump and I am terrified of heights. My goal was to do it and overcome my fear, but to do that I needed to trust the team. And that I did. They were patient, attentive, fun, and helped me keep a level head ... until the door opened ... I am still thinking back to the drop and and man ... it was surreal but fantastic. So grateful to everyone there and to a once in a life experience. Thanks Y'all!

Unreal experience in a stunning location! Amazing team at Skydive Abel Tasman. Super safe, super accommodating and super fun! Stacey at reception was an absolute legend.

What an amazing day! Staff of Skydive Abel Tasman we're all so nice and professional :) I was so nervous at first but it all went away when I met the staff as they ensure you that you're in good hands! The views were absolutely breathtaking. The photo and video package was well worth every penny. Would love to jump with them again! Thank you!

Epic skydive!

I was bit nervous and scared about the jump given I’m afraid of heights. The staff were really supportive and explained everything. The owner even had a chat must of see I was nervous he has done around 17000 jumps in his time (wicked)! Dan the tandem guy was awesome we even did some flips and tricks. All the staff make you feel at ease. Such an awesome experience really, nothing like it. I upgraded to the 16500ft jump, if you’re going up you might as well do the highest jump it was well worth the extra cash. #skydiveabeltasman

Great day!

My group did the kayak tour in the morning then went to anchorage in the afternoon. This was great, as the water was calm and after a mini hike to peak hill I got to chill on the beach in the afternoon. I was traveling solo, so I shared a kayak with the tour guide Alex, he was super friendly, very knowledgeable of the surrounding area and took over the paddling when I just wanted to be lazy. If you’re staying in nelson they offer free pick up and drop off coach to your accommodation which was also a deciding factor when I was booking the tour. The driver was SUPER friendly and again made me feel comfortable as a solo traveller. I would definitely recommend.

Well organised tour company, everything went smoothly from start to finish, modern boats well maintained. Can’t go wrong with Abel Tasman park, beautiful scenery and unspoiled. Need to have a moderate level of fitness to enjoy any of the walking trails.

Was a long cruise dropping different groups all along the coast we got back to Tonga quarry at 12pm. Was a 90min walk through the high tide track, nice forest walk to bark bay then 10min to Nedlands beach for pick up at 3 back at base at 4.

Beautiful coast

Booking and check in was uncomplicated. It was a sunny day so the landscape during the boat ride looked amazing! We went to medlands and walked to anchorage bay. The coastal track was not so impressive. Just up and down through the woods. We did more impressive walks in New Zealand. When there were no trees the view was beautiful. We did the low tide track. You have to take your shoes off during that track (high tide track also). We had more than 4 hours for the walk and didn’t need it. We could lay on the beach before catching the boat back to kaiteriteri.

The Wilsons staff were all super helpful and efficient and we must make a special mention of our guide, Ruby, who was awesome and really made the day. In particular she managed a wide range of paddling abilities within the day’s group with great tact and understanding while still giving us fascinating information and guiding us to some unforgettable spots along the coast - not to mention finding seals for us to watch! Thanks for a great experience all round.

Fun in the rain

We had an unlucky day for the trip as it was one of the uncommon rainy days in Nelson, however this did not ruin anything! Felt very lucky as we saw almost noone throughout the walk and felt like we had the place to ourselves. An informative guide in Murray on the boat up the tasman to drop off point and then a maximum if 5 hours in the park. Lots of side walks to do along the way and once we got picked up at the end of the day Murray even took us out to see some seals! A super fun day and would recommend

Nice Day in Able Tasman

The Wilsons trips to able tasman are well organized and show the beauty of the able tasman NP. If you only here for one day it is the perfect option to get a glimps of the nature and what the np has to offer. In case you are really interessted in the local stories sitting inside might be required, as it is difficult to understand whats spoken on the upper deck (like on many boat tours). I made a tour including a bit of walking and they made sure all people are off at the right place.

Nice Experience, Loving It !!!

First time ever do kayaking with my hubby, and we were so lucky to have such a wonderful day in Abel Tasman during Easter break after having stormy days in Auckland. The activity was wonderful, friendly guide, well-organized, relaxing for a newbie like myself .... although a bit surprise with how busy the area of Split Apple rock was that day, would be safer for everyone to arrange specific time for boats and kayaks to enter the area around the rock. Well done, Guys !!!
