The water taxi was really thrilling, particularly when you sit in the front of the water taxi. The island was a great trek of moderate intensity. Overall an enjoyable experience. I found this better than MILFORD SOUND
Mou Waho island was a fantastic experience. Hannah, our taxi “captain”, was friendly and informative. Would highly recommend both taxi and island trip when staying in Wanaka.
The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Gave good advice on the transit over (best locations, weather to expect etc, worth doing far viewpoint)
We've been wanting to do the trip for ages. We picked a pearler of an afternoon. James was a great guide, very informative on the boat ride over. We were allowed plenty of time to explore and enjoy the amazing scenery. Really glad to tick this off the list. Almost teenage kids also had fun on the island!
