Te Wai Pounamu Journey

— teh : wai po : na : mu journey

On the Te Wai Pounamu Journey you will experience an epic 13 day journey through some of New Zealand’s premium waterways.

The waters of greenstone are what we will be following on this journey. Te Wai translates to The Water and Pounamu is the Indigenous Maori word for greenstone or jade. Originally used for tools, weapons and jewelry, pounamu is steeped with tradition, culture and spirituality and is the old name for the South Island of New Zealand.

This trip is a must for people who love kayaking, outdoor activities and unspoilt New Zealand. The experience exceeded my expectations.

This was a trip of a life time! We had two amazing guides! They were the absolute BEST! We had a wonderful group and could not have asked for a better trip! Thank you for being AWESOME!

Our Trip to New Zealand was awesome! Our guide Alex was the best! She was so much fun! She took such great care of us and took us to some amazing places!

Horey was our guide, a great guy who was really personable with the group, knew lots about the area and took real pride in showing us around. I loved seeing the Sound by kayak.
