Bio: I'm a Kiwi with a long standing love affair with the New Zealand mountains and oceans. I have 10 seasons of guiding under my belt throughout New Zealand, Australia and Nepal. Traveling and exploring the world, off the beaten track, with my guitar is when I'm at my happiest. I've plucked a tune in crowded Indian trains, under the Himalayas, around Australian outback campfires and on remote Costa Rican beaches. A fluent Spanish speaker, I have a passion for surfing, diving, trekking and seeing the world first hand. Nothing is better to me than sharing this beautiful place we call home with others. |

What our clients have said:
"Did a good job of accommodating all fitness levels. That's a tough thing to do with such a big group, and he pulled it off very well. Lots of positive energy, and gave us confidence he could handle any situation." "My guide Dan was phenomenal. I really cannot say enough good things about Dan. Made a wise choice to end a hike in very wet conditions. Always funny, good taste in music. Vast knowledge of botany and NZ geography." "Dan and Elle were fantastic. They were accommodating considering we had a lot of challenges with continuous rain for days. They tried so hard to keep us all happy and they worked non-stop. When do they sleep!?!" "Absolutely the best. He was knowledgeable about flora and fauna and took the time to inform us about each activity. And he loves his job, which is infectious. Both he and Sarah made sure that we were comfortable with all aspects of the adventure." "Dan had a great personality and so enthusiastic!! So lovely to talk to. Very amusing and engaging as well. Perfect guide for the out back! We loved him!! Hard worker too." "Dan was wonderful. It was so refreshing meeting a young man with such wisdom about so many of the things in life that most people take for granted. His love and respect for New Zealand was very apparent. I learned so much about the "flora and fauna" of New Zealand, especially the endemic trees and birds. It was very interesting learning from him about the Maori culture and some of its vocabulary. Dan definitely made sure that we had an awesome trip. He is a great conversationalist. He turned us on to great Kiwi music. He was very fun. " "Dan was awesome! He (and Amanda) made our trip! Even tempered, upbeat, knowledgeable. " |
