Reviews: Christchurch Departure: Kaikoura 1-Day Tour with Optional Whale Watching Cruise and Dolphin Encounters

Guest User2025-12-28

The fish and chips included in the itinerary were absolutely delicious—the best fish and chips I've ever had! Unfortunately, we weren't lucky enough to see a whale flip over during whale watching, but we did see countless dolphins, which was truly spectacular! The tour included many scenic stops and views, making the whole trip very enjoyable and relaxing!

An amazing trip. Well organised from the time we arrived at the office. Thorough safety briefing and led by pleasant, approachable and knowledgeable guides who clearly love their job and their local environment. Thoroughly recommended.
