Erin & Ryan

There is nothing like a relaxing horseback ride taking in the beautiful scenery of our surroundings.

The sails are hoisted and we will become the crew as we sail down the beautiful Auckland Harbor. Then the experience really begins as the two yachts line up under international match racing pre-start conditions, just like in the America's Cup and compete head to head. We will be involved in the racing, calling tactics, grinding, and even protesting the offending yacht!

We will enjoy a half-day tour at the Cairns Tropical Zoo, set amidst 15 acres of tropically landscaped gardens. It is home to hundreds of native and exotic species, and many are indigenous to the region.
