WE ARE OPEN

Covid-19 
On Friday 3rd December 2021 New Zealand will move from “Alert Level Restrictions” to the COVID-19 Protection Framework known as the “traffic light system”.  

• Stewart Island/Rakiura will be at the ORANGE traffic light setting. 
• Ulva’s Guided Walks' activities are classified as mixed environment - our walks take place outdoors, however to access the wonderful areas we visit requires travelling in what is classified as an indoor space.  Therefore:
  • For our Ulva Island walks, a Vaccine Pass and face mask is mandatory for the water taxi service between Stewart Island and Ulva Island. 
  • For evening kiwi spotting, a Vaccine Pass and face mask is mandatory to travel in our vehicle. 
  • Our preferred group size is 6 persons - we strongly encourage you to wear a face mask during our tours, but this is your choice.

If you have an existing booking that you wish to postpone or cancel please contact us.

Ulva's Guided Walks is one of the original bird watching companies at Stewart Island, locally owned and operating since 2000.  We offer a range of bird watching and botanical experiences at Ulva Island and Stewart Island and specialise in small personal tours - from a few hours to half day, full day and evening experiences.

Take time to enjoy and discover the temperate Gondwanaland rainforest of Ulva Island with one of our local guides - experienced birding, wildlife and natural history specialists that have their own special connection with Stewart Island, the place we call home.  Ulva Island Bird Sanctuary is a unique predator-free environment with well maintained gravel walking tracks.
