A small-group farm tour across a working family farm in Ohariu Valley, led by the farmer, Ward. The 3½-hour 4WD tour covers three privately owned farms, and includes feeding the wild Kaimanawa horses, seeing wild eels, standing under a 111 metre wind turbine, and morning tea at a shepherd's cabin on the cliffs above Cook Strait. Groups are limited to two to six people, so there is time to ask questions. Pick-up and drop-off from Wellington Railway Station are available, or you can drive out for a discounted rate. Bookings are essential, through the online form, by email or by phone. Testimonials on its website describe the scenery as breathtaking and the guide as warm and knowledgeable.
