★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Furhana was an amazing experienced and knowledgeable guide who was very passionate about making sure everyone had a really good experience. She keeps the group under control so that people don’t make noise and therefore scare the kiwis and birds away which I really appreciated. I would really highly recommend Ruggedy Range. We did the Kiwi spotting and Ulva island with them and they were far better than the other tour we did on Steward Island with another company.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Furhana was an informative and clear tour guide. We got a good tour of the island and during the kiwi tour that evening spotted two kiwi and even had one peck at our shoes - it was incredible.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We chose the Ruggedy Range four hour tour of Ulva Island. It cost a little more than some of the shorter tours, but well worth it. Furhana led our party through the majesty of the pristine rainforest, ears and eyes attuned to the environment.
She knew every birdcall, every tiny plant, every massive tree, and her knowledge and passion flowed out and into us all.
My few photographs are a poor show. There were many more birds, some of them literally a metre away, including a saddleback, and a robin Furhana charmed down from the trees.
She paid careful attention to each member of the group, making certain everyone had a good view of everything. She made sure we trod quietly in the wilderness, respected the birds and plants, were one with the forest.
And after, as we bounced across the bay in the water taxi, she encouraged us to sing, tell stories, entertain the boat driver, who rewarded us by pointing out a trio of blue penguins.
I left a half block of hazelnut chocolate for her. We discovered Furhana loves chocolate!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely tour guide with extensive knowledge of kiwi and Stewart Island who catered to the only evening we were available. We had three encounters with kiwi, the third being past the finish time of our tour however Furhana wanted us to have the best experience possible. Would highly recommend this tour and will be booking other tours with her on our next trip. Thank you so, so much for a wonderful evening! Aimee & Michael.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Furhana is an excellent guide. After 26 years on the island she is a mine of information. We did the bus tour with local history and Ulva Island forest and bird 4hour tour. Furhana knew just where to find the most threatened native birds and we were treated to the sight of the rare rifleman, saddlebacks, brown creeper, kakabeak, yellow head and greywarbler, as well as parakeet, oyster catchers and weka. Her knowledge of the trees and bush plants revealed how the forest works cooperatively. Stunning. Thank you.
