Discover Okarito: Waterways & Walking Tour Combo
About this tour:
Did you know....? Okarito lagoon is New Zealand’s largest unmodified wetland area - surrounded by national park and rainforest, home to a variety of wading and forest birds and takes a special place in the history books of the West Coast. Join Paula & Swade onboard the 'Explorer Douglas'. During your 2 hour EcoTour they engage in both an informative and friendly way to help you discover the absolute magic of Okarito and its stunning environment - from wetlands to rainforest and mountain landscapes, and an amazing diverse range of bird life. Then join Tash & Cliff of Glacier Valley Eco Tours on our Okarito Eco Walking Tour - a 2.5 hour easy guided walk with one of our knowledgeable local guides. Explore the old gold mining township of Okarito, and the walks it has to offer. Mountain and glacier views, flora & fauna, unique birds and wildlife, lagoon, beach, rich history and amazing sunsets; this is one of New Zealand's hidden gems.

All four of us are pretty passionate about this amazing place we live in - so we also team up to run the Okarito Native Plants Nursery. Joining us on this package tour helps us give back - your tour cost includes a small donation to the Nursery to help us plant a tree or two thanks to you or you can even learn and experience planting one of our ecosourced native trees yourself under Cliff's guidance in our restoration site near the Okarito Wharf. Either way, the tour also includes a private tour through the Nursery to learn more about what we and you can do together for positive change!
