Great tour
Great guide (Jasper I think??) who was clearly very passionate about his job and our enjoyment. Saw lots of seals around the island including pups playing in waves etc. Tea/coffee was a treat too. Once you get to the beach it’s a self guided walk back (which is 8-10km) - flat path, beautiful views, but no way to come off earlier if needed

Great day out
Great guide, very relaxed journey. The kayak was enjoyable, got to see lots of seal pups around Adele Island and the walk back wasn't too challenging. Great scenery throughout, recommend.

Glamour Day!
Great small group, wonderful guide Fraser made the trip calm, educational and fabulous, tailoring our experience to our group ability. Abel Tasman provides the scenery and wildlife. Lucky enough to have perfect weather.

Guided Kayak and Walk
Fantastic day in Abel Tasman National Park. The moment we arrived at Kahu Kayak HQ, we knew we had picked the right tour. Fabulous 3 hour Kayak with Squid (Sydney) as our guide. I was worried that I wouldn't be up for the challenge, but once we were on our way, I knew I had nothing to worry about. Fantastic morning kayaking, swim and a bite to eat on the beach, then headed out for the walk back to HQ. Breathtaking scenery and very easy trail after the first 500m (very steep). The walk took just over 2.5 hours. I would highly recommend this tour.

Such a fun experience!
It was a really nice experience with Kahu Kayaks. The staff was very lovely and helpful. The only thing I would have liked is more information during the kayak tour. We didn't get much info on any history or anything of interest which we would have appreciated. This is a great tour if you're wanting a more casual guide, rather than lots of stops to chat about facts/history.
