We are sorry to advise all our Ultimate Movie and Wairarapa South Coast tours remain postponed at this time due to storm damage at the Putangirua Pinnacles earlier this year.
In February 2023, The Department of Conservation advised access to Putangirua Pinnacles will likely be prohibited for several months.
As the Pinnacles is a major part of our experience, we have unfortunately been forced to cancel our Ultimate and Wairarapa tours until further notice.
