They are amazing! Naya, our guide, was so lovely and she taught us a lot about the local wildlife and the history of the park. Due to a storm, our Ferry was delayed and they changed our booking without any problem. I would recommend them to everyone. You won't regret it!

Brilliant from start to finish . Brad explained everything we needed to know from a safety and trip point of view. We planned to kayak up to Observation beach all went well, stunning coast and we returned back to Marahau on foot . Perfect day

An amazing time! We were a little worried about getting our way around but everyone was very informative and helpful. It was amazing to be able to explore at our own pace and we were able to see the beautiful beaches and even some seals! The drop off and pick up was very smooth and when we made it back to shore for drop off, not even 5 minutes later someone was there to pick us up. I would recommend to anyone wanting a little exercise and adventure!

We had an excellent day, we visited several beaches and we saw birds and seals. The instructors are friendly and explain everything very well before starting the ride. The kayaks are very well equipped. The best way to go along the coast of Abel Tasman Park

Such a great day! Brad was awesome and super helpful, the facilities are really great (toilets, shower, change rooms) and overall very professional, relaxed, and an affordable day out. Highly recommend cruising around - we went as far as the seal colony on the island and hung out on the beaches for a bit. The sites were amazing and we’d do it again!

Just had a really fantastic experience on a self guided tour around Abel Tasman. We had to cancel our first day due to bad weather, but Brad was super helpful and flexible helping us to reorganize. Set up, pick up at Onetahuti, and pack down were all slick and hassle free. Good safety brief, everyone is competent and professional. Despite some other reviews, this is the cheapest operator doing a self guided option (I checked lots!) and was pretty great value for money, if you ask me. If you want to get it done, book with Kahu. Cheers again Brad! 2 more satisfied customers...

We had a great time renting a kayak from kahu kayak and kayaking to anchorage bay, returning via walking path. Even though we didn't have high expectations from the service as we were just renting kayaks, the crew proved to be wonderful - they gave great info, kept upbeat mood, made the whole experience very safe and were super flexible in supporting the kayakers! We not only enjoyed the whole experience of kayaking in this incredibly beautiful area, but also felt very much safe, supported and relaxed throughout it, thanks to kahu kayaks crew. Much recommended!
