Freefalling into my 30s!

This was the best birthday experience I have ever had in my life. There's something about skydiving that changes your life after the fact. The magnificent view, the pumping adrenaline, the flying feeling and the victorious notion that you DID IT! The instructors were fantastic, well versed in their arrangements, I felt safe and taken care of. Btw, I'd recommend to go first out of the plane that way it's done and dusted! And also go 18500ft, if you're gonna jump THEN JUMP!

Can’t recommend doing this enough, the team are supportive from beginning to end. The experience itself is fantastic. Be ready for the extreme feeling of jumping out a plane at high altitude but otherwise, bloody brilliant.

Peddle trike were so much fun, Max the staff member was friendly he chatted to all the children and to us Adults. It's a beautiful part of the lake, sheltered from the wind, small bays so take a picnic, plus a park is a small walk away - a nice spot to spend a few hours

We had a fantastic experience on the Barbary. The weather was great, the commentary from the skipper was great, we were offered a hot drink and a thermal poncho for if it got cold. The carvings were amazing and well worth the trip to see.

A must do! Sarah was a great guide, full of fun and information. The boat is great, and much much better than the noisy engine options, even on an almost windless day. Carvings are very cool, and we had a beautiful swim. Not to be missed!

Loved the flexibility of the skipper. We had a small, friendly bunch to sail with. That made it easy to move about the boat. The pizza aboard was a lovely touch. Our skipper was highly knowledgeable over the area, nz and so many other things. The swabs and bean bags are a great idea. Fortunate to have a spectacular weather. Shame about no wind. Gladly recommend to others

Had an amazing sailing trip with Sail Fearless! My 4 boys absolutely enjoyed it with the highlight nor only being the beautiful carvings, but being able to jump off the boat and swim in the beautiful crystal clear waters of Taupõ Moana! Thanks crew, definitely recommending to friends and whanau.

Thoroughly enjoyed our trip aboard Barbary. Our captain, Jamie, was very entertaining and informative. We had beautiful weather, although the wind was lacking so we motored more than sailed. The kids loved a chance to steer the ship.

Sailing on Barbary to the Maori Rock Carvings was fantastic, although we didn't have the nicest weather, Barbary was a very smooth sail through Lake Taupo to the Maori Rock Carvings. Our captain, Sarah, was a skilled yachtsman who told us about the area and the boat. The Maori Carvings were beautiful to see and a must do if you are in the area. Thank you!
