Private Charters on Lake Mapourika – Franz Josef Glacier

Private Charters on the Hanna-K are an excellent option for any one looking for a unique and fun idea for a get together!  Last week we helped a local from the Rainforest Retreat reception crew celebrate her birthday in style!  We set sail in the rain – fully equipped with onesies, fishing rods and more than enough jelly shots to go around!
