Other Activities

Peel Forest Safaris’ central South Island location is ideal for exploring some of New Zealand’s most stunning scenery.

Pennie is happy to escort or arrange local sightseeing. We have some great local activities, from horseback riding to scenic flights by helicopter or fixed-wing aircraft. If you are a follower of the Lord of the Rings, we have some local sights that are toured daily.

Our local town, Geraldine, boasts great shopping and very nice cafes. We can also arrange wine tastings at local vineyards, gourmet cooking classes and more.

For more information about the area, please visit Experience Mid Canterbury, South Canterbury or contact us directly.

Touring New Zealand

We are happy to help you arrange a tour of New Zealand to take place before or after your hunt. We can recommend hotels, activities and rental cars. If you are not comfortable driving on the left-hand side of the road, we can arrange a guided tour.

Planning your Trip

To comfortably visit both islands, we would recommend two to three weeks. Our roads are not too busy, especially at the time of the year, you will be hunting. Accommodation is varied – our motels and hotels are of very good quality and have facilities which allow you to do your own cooking, or we have an excellent assortment of restaurants and cafes. We have impressive wine regions worth taking the time to enjoy.
