Epic Taupo RealSwim Adventure
January is always an exciting time in New Zealand. Summer is in full swing, holidays are upon us and it’s a great time to be open water swimming. We have just completed our Epic Taupo RealSwim trip which was hands down our best to date. We can put a trip itinerary together but who books on the trip and the magic that happens is totally unscripted and when it all comes together; great people, awesome location, perfect weather and fun swimming – well that’s the magic. But rather than us telling the story here is some feedback from guests this January 2016 …
“I returned for the second year running after an outstanding time the first year and this year continued to provide new and exciting adventures, challenges,friendships and accomplishments! As someone new to swimming as an adult and lacking some confidence in the water, I always leave Taupo feeling confident and grateful for the experience ! Each year we have swam in different part of Lake Taupo and the experiences encountered varied so much but all of them spectacular! Lake Taupo water is crystal clear and has to be experienced! The scenery and sportive nature of the swim gives you the chance to swim for enjoyment, relax in the water, build confidence and experience new world class experiences! To finish the trip, we have the chance to participate in The Epic Taupo swim race. You can take this at your own pace and challenge yourself to your own level! I surprised myself by being able to swim 5km and this is something I wouldn’t have done if it wasn’t for this swim camp. There are plenty of events for all levels. The support you receive from the Realswim adventures team is outstanding, fun and supportive! The preparation and skills they give you have provided me with good knowledge and tools to be successful in other endeavours. Bring on Epic Taupo 2017!”
“Firstly, thank you Dan…I know I have already said this but I am sincerely grateful for all that you have helped me with. As always you were the voice in my head all the way around Saturdays race and then to have you hanging off the edge of the jetty with words of encouragement…well that was a massive boost. I went into that with two goals- one was to finish and the second was to finish in under three hours. Thank you for helping me achieve these.
Secondly, the whole trip — what a magnificent trip you have set up. The fun of sportive swimming is mind blowing and your enthusiasm for it is contagious. I cannot imagine a more fun way to see Lake Taupo than the way you have shown us. Cruising along the lake edge in and out of those cliffs and caves was a breathtaking experience. And then in the middle of the lake, well I could’ve spent hours just pottering around there happily. You really have done a brilliant job putting this together and it really is an EPIC trip 🙂 You deserve a pat on the back for the work you have put into organising these trips! This is a worthwhile trip that I would recommend to everyone.”
