The Epic

A fantastic adventure that really packed in experience after experience!

A fantastic adventure that really packed in experience after experience! We travelled with two other couples and did the 4 day EPIC adventure including railcarts, mini bus transfers then jetboating on the Whanganui River through pristine national park forest. We couldn’t believe what we saw, including the rare blue duck near Blue Duck Station! All of our guides were friendly, well trained and great at relaying history of the areas we travelled through. The office staff were amazing and had everything super organised. We even had a private transfer back to our early train departure by Grant, the owner! Above our expectations to celebrate our friend’s special birthday. Well done FWA, you have a great product and should be proud. (15 Mar 2025)

The Expedition

Remote NZ at its best. Fun, friendly and informative. The cost for such an excellent weekend was very reasonable. We spent two days and one night with on our expedition. We had a lot of laughs, while learning the history of the area. The jet boat and Heli trip is something I will never forget. Staff are always there and ready to help. There was a group of twelve of us on our trip and we were easily accommodated.

The Republic

A friend and I recently did the Republic 1 Forgotten World rail tour and I have to say it was one of the absolute best experiences of our lives!! We stayed the night at the Forgotten World Motel as we were traveling down from Auckland and though it is an older motel, it had everything we needed for a two night stay. But from the motel to the rail tour to the shuttle ride back at the end of the tour the most memorable thing was the staff

Absolutely unforgettable — a true bucket-list experience. We did Forgotten World Adventures last weekend and honestly… wow. This is one of the most unique experiences you can do in New Zealand. Every detail was dialled in perfectly — seamless transport, great food, comfy accommodation, and totally on-time organisation from start to finish.
