Hi CraigThanks for taking the time to write this review. I am afraid Arnie has not come back this year, spending the Northern Hemisphere winter at home this time round. Really good to hear you enjoyed the trip.We have changed the pricing schedule a little with trip photos, however what we find is that customers do not appreciate that a real live person was on the river taking those photos with expensive camera equipment. Not only that, but that person was also paid real wages. This is what you pay for. The cost of the USB stick is obviously minor.Brian Megaw

My husband & I first visited River Valley in 2002, when we were mere pups (and the group photo we found just showed how young we were :/) When we visited NZ this year with our 2 teenagers we knew we had to return to show the kids the fun of rafting and that we oldies still 'got it'! The River Valley rafting team did not disappoint. Paulie and Spencer made us all feel relaxed and comfortable straight away by being cheeky chappies. Rees was quietly lovely and smiley. Brian ably managed! We were concerned that we might be cold, seeing as it was Winter, but we were (tightly) fitted out with all the gear that was needed to keep warm and toasty on the water. As it turned out this was never going to be enough for when we jumped in the river later on in the day! No one made us go in, so we only have ourselves to blame for getting a little chilly!?All in all, the family agreed that the rafting was awesome (not really a very British way of putting it, but the kids like it and it does seem appropriate on this occasion). We always felt safe, even the non swimmer in our ranks! The kids were taken great care of, which meant the parents could relax and have fun too. My only disappointment was that the experience didn't last long enough. We can't wait to return. Even if we are too old & creaky to do the rafting!

We had a great ride with the lovely Lizzie, in some spectacular New Zealand scenery. Lizzie trains her horses using natural horsemanship, which was really interesting to try and learn about. It took us a while to get used to, but it was very cool and inspirational. We had chosen River valley especially as they promised a more free ride for experienced riders, rather than the normal ride-in-a-line approach you find other places. This was great, but the new style of riding made us a bit like novices again, so we did take it slow until we got more used to it. (the horses weren't super keen on running in the summer heat either, which is completely understandable ;) ) As I said, absolutely stunning scenery, and great chatting to Lizzie about horses and ways to ride. We regretted not going for the full day option including lunch, as we easily could have spent more time out there :)

The location of the Lodge is awesome. One of the best sceneries I've stayed in in my life... The wooden house is truly cosy and the food delicious. However, if you go during winter and you stay in the 2 or 6 bed dorms you will have to go out in the cold to get to the toilet or have a shower, which sometimes can be quite annoying. The lodge is also very remote so be prepared, no shops or supermarkets around, which I find awesome, but for some it might be too rustic.About the activities, I did the rafting with them and it was awesome. Very nice river, kind and funny guides and good equipment, I can't complain. It might be a bit expensive, but you can't get much cheaper in New Zealand. If you like rafting, I would really recommend it!!
