“De dag begon met goede uitleg over het gebruik van de kajak. Het is fijn dat er een groot waterdicht opbergvak in de kajak zit. Ideaal voor een rugzak met lunch. Vervolgens werden we naar het water gebracht en na een kleine instructie mochten we volledig zelfstandig aan de gang. De kaart die we mee kregen was fijn om de weg te weten op het water. Leuke toevoeging was het zeehonden spotten.”

Review of Nelson’s Abel Tasman kayak and Great Taste Trail bike tour, with practical advice on route, fitness, price, transport, and what to expect.
