New Zealand is a land of dramatic landscapes, friendly people and world-class adventure. From glacier-fed rivers and remote wilderness valleys to rugged coastlines, ancient forests and snow-capped mountains, Aotearoa offers some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere on Earth.

At Water By Nature, we are passionate about sharing the real New Zealand. Not just the famous sights, but the hidden corners, remote rivers and unforgettable experiences that most visitors never discover.

Our New Zealand adventures range from the action-packed New Zealand River Rafting Road Trip, which explores nine very different rivers across both islands, to our popular Multi-Active Adventure showcasing the very best of the country by land, water and air.

For those seeking true wilderness, our Landsborough and Perth River expeditions venture deep into some of New Zealand’s most remote and untouched landscapes, accessed by helicopter and surrounded by towering mountains, glaciers and pristine rainforest. We also offer a spectacular Milford Track and Landsborough combination, blending one of the world’s finest walks with one of its greatest wilderness river journeys.

Whether you are looking for a day on the river, a multi-day rafting expedition or a comprehensive journey exploring the best of New Zealand, our small-group adventures provide an authentic way to experience this remarkable country.

Come and discover why New Zealand continues to capture the imagination of travellers from around the world.
