Reviews: Kaikoura Whale Watch Day Tour from Christchurch

Guest User2024-09-21

As this is a weather and nature/wildlife dependent activity, there is never a 100% guarantee that you will see whales. So, do approach with an open mind. The alternative nature tour offered was equally rewarding. We got to watch several dolphin pods playing, swimming near the catamaran and jumping off the waters, seals, several varieties of sea birds, albatrosses running on the water’s edge to take flight and so on. So, I still had a fun day.

Reviews: Christchurch Hot Air Balloon Ride in Canterbury, New Zealand

This project is absolutely worth it, with breathtaking views from the air! Watching the sunrise from a hot air balloon 🌅 requires perfect timing, location, and luck! Thumbs up to all the staff! 👍🫶

Reviews: Akaroa Dolphins ~ Harbour Nature Cruise

Guest User2026-01-02

We had an amazing time. Captain Joe was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the happenings in and around the harbor. The entire crew was very accommodating, and even turned around to get a wayward hat. Captain Joe backed into an area so that we could get some great shots of the seals, and their PUPS!!! Came across many dolphins and their calves, even saw several jump out of the water. This team is definitely the group to go with for this adventure.

Reviews: Akaroa Harbour Nature Cruise

Guest User2024-10-09

This was a wonderful day out, I thoroughly recommend. Yes, we did see dolphins and seals, but even if we hadn’t, I still would’ve enjoyed, lovely scenery, and great people both on the boat and in the checkin area.
