Our Story
Locally Owned.
Safety First.
Summit & River was born in 2016 when Aroha and Ben — both former search and rescue volunteers — decided to share the wild parts of Queenstown that most tourists never see. Every trip is led by qualified guides who know these mountains and rivers like the back of their hand. Safety is non-negotiable, but so is having the time of your life.

What Adventurers Say
"The rafting was absolutely insane. Best thing we did in Queenstown. Ben and the guides made us feel totally safe even in the big rapids.
"Aroha took us on the alpine hike and it was the highlight of our entire NZ trip. Views you can't get from a tour bus.
"Did the paragliding with my teenage son. He hasn't stopped talking about it. Professional, fun, and the photos they take are unreal.
