Catlins Horse Riding

Reviewed By MichelleA4784

We had an awesome 2-hour farm and beach ride! Cara matched us up well to her amazing good-natured horses. We had mixed riding abilities in our group of 4, and these were well catered to - those who wanted a slower steady pace were able to stay at a walk while the others of us had a good fast ride along the beach. It felt more like riding out with a group of friends than a trekking company ride. Such a beautiful area. Highly recommended, I'm sure we will be back.

Fantastic walk from Cannibal Bay to Surat Bay. We were lucky and saw many and very large sea lions. Keep your distance!

Tunnel Hill

Reviewed By C5795TEmichellet - Timaru, New Zealand

Decided to walk through here...it was a little creepy but also rather cool. Had my wee dog with me for company. Not a long walk through and there was graffiti on inside of tunnel. Definitely recommend a torch
