We can plan a safari tour designed to suit your own special interests, preferences and abilities. Your safari would include places we go to on our scheduled South Island trips and we can also take you to other special places. A customised safari can be easier or more challenging than our scheduled trips and can emphasise overnight hiking or focus on day walks. Customised safaris are run in the same manner as our scheduled hiking safaris (e.g. West Coast Wilderness), using the same guides, vehicles, equipment, and budget accommodation. This way we retain flexibility to cope with variable weather. Clients are expected to participate in cooking, collecting firewood, pitching tents, washing dishes etc.
