Franz Josef Guided Kayaking Tour

About this experience

The Franz Josef Guided Kayaking Tour takes visitors out onto the glacier-fed waterways surrounding Franz Josef, a small West Coast town on New Zealand's South Island, known for its proximity to the Franz Josef Glacier. The tour is led by a guide and runs on the water, giving participants a low-angle view of the rainforest and glacier valley that is difficult to reach on foot. Paddlers move through calm river channels and lakes, with guides pointing out local wildlife, native bush, and geological features shaped by glacial activity. No prior kayaking experience is required. Tickets cover guide fees, equipment including kayak and paddle, and a safety briefing. For more activities in the area, see things to do in Franz Josef.
