The Metanoia Experience

We are passionate about time spent afield giving our clients the opportunity to hunt and live in remote areas of New Zealand. All of our trips are tailored to suit your requests, and we are passionate about curating free range trips with you prior to your arrival in New Zealand.
Estate Hunts
We also offer private estate hunting opportunities where you are the sole hunters in the area. Our team has access to some of the most exclusive hunting estates in New Zealand, which are home to a wide range of game species including New Zealand Red Stag, Elk, Bison, Tahr, and Fallow.
Drop Camps
At Metanoia Ventures, we are proud to offer Drop Camps for hunters seeking the thrill of an independent, unguided experience in some of New Zealand’s most pristine wilderness. This is your chance to challenge yourself while hunting free-range Tahr, Chamois, Red Stag, and Fallow Deer in private hunting areas.​
