			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">Jon Imhof, a surfer from Hawaii, came to Queenstown to go snowboarding and he liked Queenstown so much that he decided to stay for summer. Missing the waves of the ocean, he looked for an alternative and came up with the crazy idea to follow the rafters down the Shotover River and surf waves on his bodyboard. Although the rapids were great, he found it was too shallow and decided to go down the Kawarau River instead, and the sport of riversurfing was born.</p>
<p align="justify">In 1989, with riversurfing in high demand, Jon established Serious Fun Riversurfing, the original riversurfing company. A few year later, after looking for other suitable locations around the world, he started a sister company on the Zambezi in 1995. A few years after that, some of the African guides took the sport up to the White Nile in Uganda, and to this day, these are the only three places in the world you can go riversurfing!</p>
<p align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p>Because we are licensed to operate on two sections of the river, we can choose between them to make sure we give you the best trip on the river for the conditions. As we have no control over the weather, we cannot promise we will be running a specific section at all times during the season.<br />Lower water section &lt; 200 cms &#8211; Chinese Dog Leg &#8211; 8 km Section graded 2-4<br />Higher water section &gt; 200 cms &#8211; Roaring Meg &#8211; 6 km Section graded 2-3 &#8211; run twice</p>
<p>Please meet us at Serious Fun shop on 39 Camp Street 15 minutes before the trip. We can also pick you up from your Hotel/Backpackers. Please tell your booking agency where you would like to be picked up.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><strong>Cruising on the “Lady of the Lake” is like stepping back in time.</strong></em></p>
<p>Below deck, the steam engines hiss and thud as the stokers shovel coal into the glowing fireboxes. In the wheelhouse upstairs, the skipper rings through directions to the engine room using the traditional telegraph bells - the same method used on board a century ago.</p>
<p>A 1 ½ hour cruise on the <a class="linkPopup" title="TSS Earnslaw Steamship (cut-away)" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/earnslaw-cutaway/" rel="popup"><em>TSS Earnslaw</em> </a>showcases some of Lake Wakatipu’s most beautiful alpine scenery and allows plenty of time to explore the decks and bridge. Visit the engine room, view the collection of historical photos in the Fo’c’sle gallery or join a sing-along with the onboard pianist.</p>
<p>The vessel has a licensed café onboard selling a selection of café-style food as well as beer, wine and spirits.</p>
<p>Cruises depart regularly throughout the day. You can choose to complete a cruise only, or a cruise, combined with a visit to Walter Peak High Country Farm for a <a title="Walter Peak Farm Excursions" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/Farmexcursions/">guided farm tour</a>, <a title="Horse Treks Excursions" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/HorseTreks/">horse trek</a>, <a title="Heritage Excursions" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/HeritageExcursions/">heritage excursion</a>, <a title="Farm and Barbecue Lunch Excursions" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/BarbecueLunch/">barbecue lunch</a> or <a title="Evening Dining" href="http://www.realjourneys.co.nz/Main/EveningDining/">evening dining</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Join us aboard the Milford Adventurer for your JUCY&nbsp;Cruize Milford Sound boat cruise and marvel at one of the most stunning places on earth. We offer the ideal Milford Sound small boat experience, personal, friendly and uncrowded.</p>
<p>During our Milford Sound scenic cruises, you&#8217;ll marvel at Mitre Peak and feel the spray of Fairy and Sterling waterfalls on your face as you take in the Fiordland scenery.</p>
<p>We specialise in providing personal friendly service and uncrowded Milford Sound boat cruises. We encourage our guests to experience Milford Sound outside of the slightly busier lunch time sailings, ensuring a balanced impact on the environment and an enhanced visitor experience. To do this we offer our guests discounted sailings on our <strong>9.15am summer / 9.45am winter</strong> and <strong>3.15pm (summer only) </strong> sailings and offer a complimentary muffin with your morning tea or coffee on the 9.15am summer / 9.45am winter cruize. JUCY Cruize prices start from only $65.</p>
<p>It is very rare for us to cancel due to weather, as when it rains (as it often does in Milford) torrents of water pour into the sound from thousands of temporary waterfalls, the ideal time to be in Milford! JUCY Cruize boat tours are never spoilt by rain &mdash; far from it! If you&#8217;re fortunate, you&#8217;ll enjoy rain and sunshine together which can create the most beautiful rainbows over the Sound, Mitre Peak and the surrounding waterfalls. A JUCY Cruize&nbsp;sightseeing cruise is always a little different, and always memorable</p>
<p>For the ultimate JUCY Cruize sightseeing tour why not combine your cruise on the Sound with a scenic flight over the Southern Alps, glaciers and Fiordland National Park; or enjoy a more leisurely coach drive linking to our&nbsp;JUCY boat cruises with plenty of photo stops along the way.</p>
