What Companies Say

★★★★★

"It is the best offsite function we have attended. "At our last two day off-site Action Matakana put together an outstanding activity package for our team.  From my first meeting I was impressed with their professional manner and the proposal that they presented. From the fantastic lunch provided to the boat making race (highly recommended); the day was perfect!"

Spark Wholesale NZ
★★★★★

"All our staff thoroughly enjoyed themselves and are still buzzing a week later. "The activities were the perfect mix for our group - not always easy with a range of ages and fitness levels, but you managed it with ease. Our conference was a huge success and that was in no small part due to Action Matakana and the wonderful team you have!"

Aspec Construction
★★★★★

"I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic day. The activities where challenging and very enjoyable and allowed for a good mix of learning, teamwork and competitive spirit. TEAM BCD had a fantastic time and would certainly recommend anyone to have a go at your corporate experience. Highlights where seeing our team overcome some milestones on the obstacle course and all have a crack at things they hadn’t done before."
