Allow yourself to be 'Guided By Nature' not by time and with a tailor made itinerary that can be changed at any time, you are in control of your own journey into the Fiordland National Park. The advantages of a private guide and private vehicle for the day is that you control what you want to focus on whether wildlife, nature, walks, history, our specialty is getting you away from the crowds to see the many 'hidden secrets' that the Fiordland National Park has to offer.

Factors such as seasonal conditions, the 'best spot', physical ability, weather, feelings, and your mood 'on the day' can and will change daily and in our opinion, this easy going and flexible approach helps us give you the best experience possible on your tour. You are the only passengers. Your guide is the key to getting your eyes, ears and cameras in the 'right place at the right time'. Your guide will also provide you with the local knowledge and ensure you explore all the off the beat spots, eat well, and you will not find a better and easier way to discover and unlock the many secrets that this world heritage area holds.

Fiordland Guides conducts only private charter (sole use) tours. You, your group or family are the only people on your tour. This means that your tour can be highly customized to suit your preferred style of travel, your fitness levels and personal needs and also your day is tailored to suit your mental and physical desires not just on an overall basis but also on a day to day level as the tour progresses.

We promote a culture of thorough communication between you and your guide both before and during your tour. We don't pretend to know what you like and don't force you to stick to a given itinerary. The basic structure or itinerary of your tour will be formed with you through negotiation once we have a good idea of what it is you are hoping to achieve or experience on your journey to the Fiordland National Park.
