Kapiti Island a New Zealand treasure

We had a great ferry trip both ways. Which was easy to get on and off . We were very lucky with the weather as it had been a gale the night before. Our guide on the Island gave us an interesting and entertaining talk about the Island and it’s history. We walked on a zig zag path up the well maintained Wilkinson track. There was lots of bird life and views along the way. 2/3rds of the way up there was a great stop at the bird feeding station. At the top was a wonderful view of the coast. We had ordered a pack lunch which considered of a delicious ham wrap, monster muffin, fruit and a muesli bar. Throughly worth it. Really glad we had good walking shoes as the track is steep going up and down. We totally recommend this trip to anyone with reasonable fitness.

A wonderful experience - must do

A fantastic day out. Our guide Tim was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We heard and saw so many birds, the bush was beautiful and all round an amazing experience both for us locals and my friend from Melbourne. We'd highly recommend.
