Where we've been, testimonials, about wildside travel.

WILDSIDE TRAVEL was founded in 2006 as a boredom-buster for founder Andrea Livingston to write and escort her own itineraries.   Her first endeavour was the development of Guided Cycle touring in Samoa – offering the very first and very successful 15 day cycle tours over a 4 year period.  Cycling is now a very established activity for visitors to Samoa.  From this initiative came Event Travel Packages to the Samoa Seas Swim Series, Rarotonga Road Race, Niue Bike Rally, Rarotonga Triathlon, Road Tour of Samoa and recently the Vietnam Mountain Marathon for 'ultra' runners. So the focus is very much ‘Active Holidays for Active people’ and combining holidays with achievements.

Today, WILDSIDE TRAVEL offer a full travel service, alongside a range of Active, Athlete & Sporting event holidays.   Whether you'd like to explore on a walking or cycling holiday locally or abroard, attend a sporting event or maybe you seek your own adventure, but need some help to pull it all together, WILDSIDE TRAVEL enjoy the challenge of itineary creation.

Go on, take a trip on the Wildside, you'll be glad you did!

Andrea Livingston

Owner of wildside travel.

I have worked in the travel Industry now for 25 years.  The last 19 of those have been in the Adventure Travel arena and escorting over 40 tours, the majority being WILDSIDE TRAVEL creations. I'm a little unconventional, and  much prefer to be gallivanting outdoors given half a chance. I enjoy Road Cycling, Mountain biking, pool or sea swimming, Kayaking, running trails and hiking the alps.    Mildly competitive and always hopeful, this path has led to Adventure Racing, Multisport, Duathlon, Triathlon and Cycle Racing.     Living in the Tasman Region these opportunities are endless and given this sort of background and experience, I have managed to attract a range of New Zealand’s elite Multisporters and Adventure Racers.    These racers are travelling 3 or 4 times a year to high-profile races around the world.  It is imperative I understand their racing needs when they travel and keep a tab on their next move should anything go astray.  Offering Travel Services to these people is an absolute joy, and I struggle to call it work. Aside from Wildside initiated tours, I like to keep my support going for a range of select holidays I think offer magical travel experiences, not necessarily huge physical challenges, but a uniqueness that can excite further adventures and like journeys. I am particularly fond of the featured Over 50’s Walking holidays in the USA, Sail & Cycle programs in Croatia, Grass Roots touring in Cuba, Bike and paddle options throughout South East Asia, Cycling the back-country of Africa, Madagascar, and Fiji or Mountain biking in North America.  You can often find these featured on my site. Having lived and worked on many foreign shores… I have slightly diverse tastes, can be a bit wacky and like nothing more than sharing this all with you!   I hope one day you can join me for some 'travel less ordinary' and unique like-minded experiences

I've been traveling the world extensively for over 20-years competing in adventure sport, having competed in 27-different countries. I learned quickly that in order to compete at maximum potential, efficient and smooth travel is a critical component to performance. Wildside Travel has provided our team with smooth, well organised and cost effective travel since 2011. The nature of our travel and racing often means our needs change and evolve, we often have to adjust our travel plans while overseas and Wildside are always just an email or phone call away, always jumping to action to help us out. We wouldn't consider traveling to race without Wildside support.  The highlight of our relationship was a trip in 2012 that incorporated races in China and France, which earned us the World Championship Title, again in 2014 for a second World Championship Title in Ecuador and again in 2015, a third Title in Brazil and a 4th in Australia 2016.

NATHAN FA'AVAE & TEAM SEAGATE (NZ ADVENTURE RACING TEAM)

Over the past six years I have been multisport and adventure racing all over the world. The adventurous nature of the sport often takes me off the beaten tracks. Andrea at Wildside is fantastic at ensuring I'm at the right place, at the right time, every time. Allowing me to focus on the racing.

TREVOR VOYCE, TEAM SEAGATE

Wildside Travel has been fantastic to deal with, organising all my overseas travel for the last couple of years. Andrea was extremely helpful re-booking my flights back to NZ and sorting out my insurance claim after I injured myself competing in Colombia.

CHRIS FORNE, TEAM SEAGATE

I've been involved with Andrea at Wildside travel since our team started racing internationally 6 years ago. Our sport has taken us to all sorts of obscure places through China, Europe, South America and Central America. Andrea always sorts our itinerary out without a hitch. She's fun and friendly to deal with, and has more than once got us out of a pickle at extremely short notice. I'd recommend Wildside travel to anyone.

SOPHIE HART, TEAM SEAGATE

View our Website for more feedback from our clients

How long have you been with TMG? How long have you been in the travel industry? Since December 2019. In the travel industry 27 years.

What's your best memory/favourite moment being a member of TMG? Finally feeling I had a wrap around family of support and back up. After years as a lone wolf I had forgotten how lovely that is!

Do you still have any clients from when you started in travel/with TMG? How long have they been clients of yours? Yes, 15+ years

What makes them a special/loyal client? I like to think it is because they are dealing with someone who understands their style as well as their needs.

What is the most memorable trip you have booked for a client? There are a long line of them!  The ones that stand out as rewarding for both me and clients have been long long trips (2months+) where we are connecting FIT detail to far flung places. This takes an awful lot of collaboration and discussions - this is where partnerships and loyalty really come into play.  When this process is fun, educational and bonding you could say!  A group of 10 tramper/friends heading off to Africa to climb and walk as many peaks as possible in 6 weeks, A Mother/Daughter Gap-year duo spending 3 months around Europe - cycling weeks, hiking weeks, tours, museums, theatre; everyday booked to the gunnels.

What is the most impactful customer service you have offered? It is the emergencies you get to deal with!  The speed and effortlessness you create to get things back on track without involving the customer is the key to impress. The 'leave it to me' approach. I have a team of Adventure Racers who often remind me of the time connecting flights/riots/demonstrations were going to prevent them form getting to the start line of a World qualifying race....I hired a transfer, purchased new tickets from another airport, lodged Insurance claims, refunded original tickets and had them on their way in under 3 hours.

What are the best thanks you have received from a client? I don't usually get gifts, but are always blown away by the feedback and testimonials people give.

What has been the biggest change/challenge you have experienced in the travel industry in the last 20 years? Social Media impacts. TripAdvisor - where everyone drops their opinions. These have massive influence on people who don't take the time to research or think things through. These word of mouth promotions (or not) can be definitive for people. Everyone is a travel agent these days (until they get stuck!). I think it is sorely misguided. 

If you've answered Covid to the above, is there anything else significant you've found has impacted the travel industry in the last 20 years? Covid is obviously significant - but social media is a core root of that evil too!

How did you deal with this? I have chosen not to try and compete but stick to my knitting and continue with magazine advertising that target my audiences and works for me...and not succumb to the guilt of not posting 10 times a week.

Terms and Conditions

Travel managers group booking terms and conditions.

Please read the following terms and conditions carefully. You must not make any booking unless you understand and agree with the following terms and conditions. References to “us”, “we” and/or “our” in these booking terms and conditions shall mean the applicable Travel Managers Group broker as set out in your quote, tax invoice or itinerary (as applicable).These terms and conditions apply to bookings you make with us in person, over the phone or by email.

We will rely on the authority of the person making the booking to act on behalf of any other traveller on the booking and that person will bind all such travellers to these terms and conditions.

Urgent travel advice

The New Zealand border has been closed to almost all travellers effective March 19 2020. Please visit  www.safetravel.govt.nz  for further information.

The travel ban applies to all arrivals whether by air or sea. New Zealand citizens, permanent residents and residents with valid travel conditions returning to New Zealand may travel to New Zealand and do not need approval from Immigration New Zealand before travelling. You should be aware there are significant reductions in airline capacity and extensive travel and quarantine restrictions both for transit and upon entry to destinations that may impact your travel arrangements. Arrivals assessed as high-risk of COVID-19 may be placed in quarantine facilities, while all other arrivals may be placed in managed isolation facilities. These measures will remain in place until the Director-General of Health is satisfied that the risk of imported cases from overseas has reduced significantly.

Warning: Customers transiting multiple countries

Most airports around the world are imposing new government restrictions and quarantine rules without prior notice. Please check the stopover airport you are transiting for the latest information in regards to restrictions and closures. This will impact your flight and your ability to reach your final destination. It is likely and possible you may be denied boarding if your passport/nationality doesn’t meet the requirements of the transiting countries. Airlines are not offering refunds for this change in policy, only credit, and may not have alternative arrangements for your onward travel.

Passenger Safety

Airlines maintain various requirements around the use of face masks and provision of evidence of negative COVID test results in transit and final destination aligning with border controls. This information is subject to change without notice, we recommend you update yourself with the relevant airline and government policies at the time of booking and immediately before travel.

Airline changes:

Airlines may change their schedules and/or cancel services with short notice which may disrupt your travel plans.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT YOUR BOOKING

As you are no doubt aware, COVID-19 has impacted travel worldwide. While it has been announced that borders between New Zealand and Australia are opening and travel between the two countries will be restriction free, this is subject to change at the discretion of the respective State and Federal Governments at any time.

In the event that border closures do occur or your travel arrangements are disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic while you are on your travels, any additional costs you may incur as a result are the responsibility of yourself as the traveller, and not Travel Managers Group Ltd. These costs may include (but are not limited to): the purchase of alternative flights to return home, additional accommodation, managed isolation costs (should this be a Government requirement) etc.

Further to this, if Government-imposed border closures result in the withdrawal of air services or land supplier and hotel closures, there may be penalties that are beyond Travel Managers’ control and you are not guaranteed any monetary compensation/reimbursement.

For up to date information, please check  www.safetravel.govt.nz

Should you choose to continue and make a booking, you acknowledge that you understand the risks associated with travelling at this time and that you have read, understood and agreed to the information above.

Passports & Visas

All travellers must have a valid passport for international travel and many countries require at least 6 months validity from the date of return and some countries require a machine-readable passport.  When assisting with an international travel booking, we will assume that all travellers on the booking have a valid New Zealand passport. If this is not the case, you must let us know. It is important that you ensure that you have valid passports, visas and re-entry permits which meet the requirements of immigration and other government authorities. Any fines, penalties, payments or expenditures incurred as a result of such documents not meeting the requirements of those authorities will be your sole responsibility (except to the extent caused by fault on our part). If you need information regarding visas, passports and other travel document requirements for your trip, please let us know. We can provide you with general information on visa and passport requirements that apply to international travel bookings you make with us. We can also obtain more specific information from an external visa advisory service provider on your behalf (if you wish, we can assist you to obtain visas through this external service and fees will apply). We do not warrant the accuracy of information provided by any external service and accept no liability for any loss or damage which you may suffer in reliance on it (except to the extent caused by fault on our part). We do not accept liability should you be refused entry into any country regardless of having a visa, except to the extent caused by fault on our part.

If you are travelling to the United States  please see  https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/  for important information regarding compulsory pre-registration for their visa waiver program (“ESTA”). New Zealand passport holders will not be able to enter the United States without a valid ESTA (or visa). Please note, you may not meet the eligibility requirements of ESTA and may be required to obtain a visa.

If you are travelling to Canada  please see https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/eta/welcome?lang=en for important information regarding compulsory pre-registration for their visa waiver programme.  New Zealand passport holders will not be able to enter Canada without a valid ESTA (or visa).  Please note, you may not meet the eligibility requirements of an ESTA and may be required to obtain a visa.

If you are travelling to New Zealand  from a Visa Waiver programme country, in transit or departing on a cruise ship you are required to request an NZETA before you travel.  Please refer to www.immigration.govt.nz/nzeta for more information.

We urge you to apply for an ESTA or ETA prior to booking an airfare if you have any concerns about whether or not you might be eligible for an ESTA or ETA. An ESTA cannot be applied for within 72 hours of travel.

Travel Insurance

We strongly recommend that you take out appropriate travel insurance to cover your travel arrangements. Your insurance protection should include cover for cancellation, medical and repatriation expenses, personal injury and accident, death and loss of personal baggage and money and personal liability insurance.  Insurance cover offered by credit card companies or reciprocal medical cover agreements are often not comprehensive. Travel insurance is also strongly recommended by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade for all overseas travel.  Your travel consultant can provide information to you about travel insurance.

Travel Advice

We recommend that you contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade or visit their website at  www.safetravel.govt.nz  for general travel advice, as well as specific advice (including safety alert levels) relating to the destination you wish to visit. You can also register your travel plans with SafeTravel, so that you may be more easily contacted in an emergency.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you are aware of any health requirements for your travel destinations and to ensure that you carry all necessary vaccination documentation.

All prices are subject to availability and can be withdrawn or varied without notice. The price is only guaranteed once paid for in full by you. Please note that prices quoted are subject to change. Price changes may occur by reason of matters outside our control which increase the cost of the product or service. Such factors include adverse currency fluctuations, fuel surcharges, taxes, supplier tariff increases and airfare increases. Please contact us for up-to-date prices.

Our Change and Cancellation Service Fees

Subject to your refund and remedy rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act, the service fees set out in your quote, tax invoice or itinerary (as applicable) will apply in the event that you need to change or cancel your booking, regardless of whether your booking was made in person, over the phone or by email.  This service fee is to cover our reasonable costs for our professional services and is in addition to any third party supplier change and cancellation fees that may apply.

Supplier Change and Cancellation Fees

Cancelled bookings may also incur supplier fees, which can be up to 100% of the cost of the booking, regardless of whether travel has commenced.  Supplier fees may also apply where a booking is changed and when tickets or documents are re-issued. Where we incur any liability for a supplier cancellation fee for any booking which you change or cancel, you agree to indemnify us for the amount of that fee.  Where you seek a refund for a cancelled booking for which payment has been made to the supplier, we will not provide a refund to you until we receive the funds from that supplier

Deposit and Final Payment  

You will be required to pay a deposit or deposits when booking. We will advise you of how much that will be. All deposits are non-refundable for changes of mind or cancellations by you (subject to your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act).  Final payment is required no later than 6 weeks prior to departure unless otherwise stated. Some airfares or services must be paid in full at the time of booking.

Payments by Credit Card

Credit card surcharges will apply when paying by credit card. These may vary between 2% and 3.5% depending on what card you use to make your purchase with. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club, Q Card, Q MasterCard and Flight Centre MasterCard. When applying for Q Card Finance, establishment and merchant fees will apply.  You authorise us to charge all fees incurred by you in relation to the services provided to the credit card designated by you.  If payment is not received from the card issuer or its agents for any reason, you agree to pay us all amounts due immediately on demand.

If you choose to save your credit card details with us they will be securely stored and may be used for your future transactions with us (including transactions agreed over the phone or by email). You can choose to remove your saved credit card details at any time.

Payments by Cheque

Please note that cheque payments (excluding bank cheques) require about 5 business days to process. If you are paying by this method you will need to make the payment at least 5 business days prior to the actual due date. You agree not to stop payment of the cheque even when you cancel a booking. You agree that we may apply the proceeds of the cheque to satisfy any liability you have to us, including any liability in respect of cancellation fees, before refunding the balance to you.

Certain taxes are mandatory in various countries. There may also be an additional local tax charged at some airports. All taxes are subject to change without notice. Airline taxes will be confirmed at the time your airline ticket is issued.

Service guarantees

Our booking and advisory services come with a guarantee that:

• they will be provided with reasonable care and skill;
• they will be fit for the particular purpose;
• they will be charged a reasonable price (when the price is not set); and
• they will be completed within a reasonable time.

If we fail to meet any of these guarantees, you have rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act.

We act as an agent for, and sell various travel related products as an agent on behalf of, numerous transport, accommodation and other service providers, such as airlines, coach, rail and cruise line operators, as well as all of our wholesalers. Any services we provide to you are collateral to that agency relationship. Our obligation to you is to (and you expressly authorise us to) make travel bookings on your behalf and to arrange relevant contracts between you and travel service providers. We exercise care in the selection of reputable service providers, but we are not ourselves a provider of travel services and have no control over, or liability for, the services provided by third parties.  All bookings are made on your behalf subject to the terms and conditions, including conditions of carriage and limitations of liability, imposed by these service providers.  We can provide you with copies of the relevant service provider terms and conditions on request.  Your legal rights in connection with the provision of travel services are against the specific provider and, except to the extent a problem is caused by fault on our part, are not against us.  Specifically, if for any reason (excluding fault on our part) any travel service provider is unable to provide the services for which you have contracted, your rights are against that provider and not against us.

To the extent permitted by law, neither Flight Centre (NZ) Limited nor any of its related bodies corporate, directors, employees, brokers (including Travel Managers Group brokers) or agents accept any liability in contract, tort or otherwise for any injury, damage, loss (including consequential loss), delay, additional expense or inconvenience caused directly or indirectly by the acts, omissions or default, whether negligent or otherwise, of third party providers over whom we have no direct control, force majeure or any other event which is beyond our control or which is not preventable by reasonable diligence on our part.  Our liability will also be limited to the extent that any relevant international conventions, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, limit the amount of compensation which can be claimed for death, injury, or delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. Under circumstances where our liability cannot be excluded and where liability may be lawfully limited, such liability is limited to the remedies required of us under applicable law (including the Consumer Guarantees Act).  This liability clause is subject to your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act and nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to limit any rights you may have under the Consumer Guarantees Act or the Fair Trading Act.

Special Requirements

Please liaise with your consultant regarding any special requirements you may have for your travel arrangements such as special meal and seating requests, room type or disabled access.  Requests may be made, but we cannot guarantee that a supplier will provide any requests.

Frequent Flyer

When booking with us, please let us know your frequent flyer membership details (or other applicable loyalty program details) for inclusion in your booking.  Please check your frequent flyer program (or other applicable loyalty program) for the specific terms of your membership. We cannot guarantee that the supplier will credit you with points for your booking. It is your responsibility to retain all boarding passes to allow verification of your travel if required.

Governing Law

If any dispute arises in relation to the agreement between you and us as constituted by these terms and conditions or otherwise, the laws of New Zealand will apply. You irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand and waive any right that you may have to object to an action being brought in those courts.

Travel Documents

Travel documents include, without limitation, airline tickets, hotel vouchers, tour vouchers or any other document (whether in electronic form or otherwise) used to confirm an arrangement with a service provider. Travel documents may be subject to certain conditions and/or restrictions including, without limitation, being non-refundable, non-changeable and subject to cancellation and/or amendment fees. Travel documents cannot be transferred to another person to use. All airline tickets must be issued in the name of the passport/photo identity holder. All airline tickets must be used in segment order and cannot be used out of sequence, otherwise your onward flights may be cancelled. An incorrect name on a booking may result in an inability to use that booking and the booking being cancelled.  Please review your travel documentation carefully and advise us immediately of any errors in names, dates or timings. It is your responsibility to collect all travel documents from us prior to travel. As a general rule your travel documents will be available for collection 2 weeks prior to departure, however this will depend on your individual arrangements. Please contact us to confirm when your travel documents are ready for collection.

Schedule Changes

We recommend that you contact the airline to confirm your scheduled departure time 24 hours prior to your flight.

Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting your personal information and agree to handle your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which is available online at   http://travelmanagers.co.nz/privacy-policy .  By providing personal information to us, you agree that our Privacy Policy will apply to how we handle your personal information and you consent to us collecting, using and disclosing your personal information as detailed in our Privacy Policy.  In particular, you agree that in certain circumstances (such as where you request us to book international travel for you), we are permitted to disclose your personal information to overseas recipients.  Such recipients may include the overseas travel service providers (e.g. airlines, accommodation or tour providers) with whom you make a booking.  These travel service providers will in most cases receive your personal information in the country in which they will provide the services to you or in which their business is based.  We may also disclose your personal information to our overseas related entities (including those in Australia, the USA, the UK, South Africa, Canada, India and Hong Kong) and to service providers who perform services for us within and outside of New Zealand.  Generally, we will only disclose your personal information to these persons in connection with facilitation of your travel booking and/or to enable the performance of administrative and technical services by them on our behalf. Where we disclose your personal information to any person (including any overseas recipients), you agree that we will not be required to ensure that person’s compliance with New Zealand privacy laws or otherwise be accountable for how they handle your personal information. When used above, “disclose” includes to transfer, share, send, or otherwise make available or accessible to another person or entity.

Monies Not Held On Trust

You agree and acknowledge that such monies will not be held by us on trust for and on behalf of you but will be held in a regularly audited separate client funds account. All monies paid by you to us will be a debt due and payable to the travel service provider in accordance with the payment terms agreed with that travel service provider. Payment will generally be made to the travel service provider before the services to which the money relates are provided, however in some cases, payment will be made to the travel service provider once the services to which the money relates have been provided.  In respect of monies paid for flights for an IATA airline, such monies might be held on trust for that IATA airline in accordance with the payment terms agreed with that IATA airline. In the event we still hold the monies, we can only provide you with a refund once we are authorised by the travel service provider to process your refund, subject to that travel service provider’s change or cancellation policy.

For all queries related to you booking, please contact your Travel Consultant directly.

Children travelling alone:

To provide for the wellbeing of children travelling alone (otherwise known as Unaccompanied Minors), airlines have specific requirements. To make a flight booking for an unaccompanied minor please contact us and we will advise the conditions for the airline of your choice.

The following information relating to general rules for Unaccompanied Minors is a  guide only  and may vary from airline to airline:

• Any child aged 5 to 11 years (inclusive) travelling alone on a flight must be booked as an Unaccompanied Minor.
• If your child is under 12 years of age and is not booked as an Unaccompanied Minor, then the child must be accompanied by another person 15 years of age or older.
• Any child aged 12 to 15 years (inclusive) may also travel as an Unaccompanied Minor if required by the airline (as airlines rules may differ) or requested by the parent/legal guardian.
• Children between 5-11 years of age attempting to travel alone and who have NOT been booked as an Unaccompanied Minor may be denied travel by the airline until they have been provided with all relevant details in relation to the child’s travel arrangements.
• An Unaccompanied Minor Form will need to be completed by the parent/legal guardian for this service. Also, the airline may charge a fee for this service.

Travelling on Jetstar

Jetstar requires that passengers are able to travel independently. The airline does not have the systems, staff or facilities required to assume responsibility for assistance and supervision of passengers. Children requiring supervision will not be regarded as able to travel independently on the basis that they may cause a disruption or endanger themselves or others if travelling unaccompanied. As a guide, children who are not yet attending secondary school will be regarded as unable to travel independently and will not be eligible to travel unless they are accompanied by an appropriate Accompanying Passenger. An Accompanying Passenger generally will be at least 15 years old.

Acknowledgement

You acknowledge that you are 18 years of age or older and that you understand and agree with the above Booking Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy.

Hunting on the wildside

Wildside hunting Safaris offers both rifle and bow hunters’ a world class trophy hunting experience on both North and South Islands for all of the New Zealand’s top trophy species. Specialising in professionally guided hunts on New Zealand’s forest clad North Island and the snow capped mountains of the South Island.

North Island Wildside Hunting Safaris

Within a short walking distance of Wildside’s homestead is some the North Island's most outstanding trophy hunting ever to be experienced.

On Wildside's exclusive hunting properties you will find, roaming in their natural heards and habitat:

Huge Red Stags;

Sika Stags;

Rusa Stags;

Fallow Bucks.

A habitat that is perfectly suited for the thrilling "spot and stalk" hunting for which Wildside Hunting Safaris is world renown.

Not only for some of New Zealand’s finest Red Stags and Fallow Bucks but also for trophy species found ONLY on the North Island like the seriously intelligent Sika Stag and the secretive Rusa Stags.

North Island hunting is typically conducted on flat easy to rolling bush country where “up close encounters” are experienced by the “spot and stalk” method of hunting. Usually offering a good number of shot opportunities per hunt (for the bow or rifle) and is ideally suited for the hunter who wants to have the “thrill of the stalk” as well as taking the trophy of a lifetime. Wildside’s main North Island property is mostly flat so is also suited for all ages and levels of fitness. Also with the many blinds and hides that are perfectly situated for successful still hunting.

South Island Wildside Hunting Safaris

Wildside's South Island properties are mainly on the Eastern side of the main divide where the foothills are less steep and more manageable for foot hunting Tahr.

Along with over 1M acres of public land with exceptional numbers, on the South Island we offer hunts for:

For the Angler

Nearby are Tongariro and Wanganui rivers and Lake Taupo boasting their world famous fishing for rainbow and brown trout.

Wildside Hunting Safaris can take you on the hunt of a lifetime for all New Zealand's trophy animals.

Wildside’s properties are often equipped for “still hunting” with treestands, platforms and ground blinds where wild game can be observed for most of the day.

What ever your ambition or abilities are the professional team at Wildside Hunting Safaris can help make your hunting dreams become reality.

The hunting season gets underway in March and goes right through until August when the stags begin shedding their antlers.

The rut period for the Red, Fallow and Sika is in our autumn (fall) with the Red Stags starting first in early March and then the Fallow and Sika follow at late March early April. Peak of the rut is around the first to second weeks of April when the “Roar” is at fever pitch.

All three species are very vocal and often respond to imitation roars. For the Sambar and Rusa their rut is around July-August and make for a very interesting midwinter hunt. On the South Island the Tahr and Chamois rut is from May to July with the Tahr being one of the spectacular animals to hunt in New Zealand. Wildside has over 100,000 acres of freerange private land hunting for tahr that is well populated with large mobs that boast some great bulls.

Be prepared though for the most thrilling hunting experience New Zealand has to offer!
