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.★

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.Trip.com Picks
