    My wife Jan and I highly recommend you take Marie's tour. She is very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of Akaroa and the role it played in the settlement of New Zealand. After the tour you will remember Akaroa for more than just its natural beauty.

    I highly recommend Akaroa visitors to experience 7th Generation Tour, guided by a rich storyteller, Marie. You will learn the heart and soul of Akaroa and have a clear understanding of the significance and importance of Akaroa’s sea and land history. The tour includes must see landmarks and scenic lookout points. A huge thank you to Marie for sharing her home’s profound past events and the awareness that we are all connected together.

    Marie was just a delight. My daughter and I learned so much from her about the early settling of Akaroa and New Zealand from an actual descendant. We enjoyed spending the entire morning and early afternoon with her (she graciously extended her time) and we even had the pleasure of sharing cookies and a tea with her while overlooking the stunning landscape. She is very knowledgeable about the conservation of the land and what is being done to preserve its beauty and abundance. Highly recommend this tour.

    Had a wonderful time on this tour. Marie is a wealth of knowledge and I learnt so much about NZ and Akaroa. Would recommend this to anyone visiting.

  • Not just a history tour but a proper insight into beautiful Akoroa and NZ in general.

    We booked this for our first day in New Zealand and the stunning little town of Akoroa. It was such a good introduction to the area, Māori culture and the history of NZ. Marie was a natural story teller and very warm and empathetic, she really bought the area to life by being so connected to it and I learned loads about the ecology (who knew gorse could be interesting?!) and history of the area.

    We had a fantastic experience with Marie Haley’s Seventh Generation tour. The tour was not only informative but also felt very personal, as Marie shared stories of her own ancestors that brought Akaroa’s history to life. Her knowledge and passion made the tour engaging and memorable. The homemade scones were absolutely delicious, a real treat to finish off the experience. Marie is a wonderful guide, and we came away with a much deeper understanding and appreciation of Akaroa. Highly recommended!

    Marie from The Seventh Generation was an excellent and passionate guide on our adventure around Akaroa! Her tour came highly recommended by a friend and we went for the 3 hours history and nature tour, which we greatly enjoyed. She has a great depth of knowledge of the area and its history, as a local with roots back to the founding of the town. We stopped at historically significant sites that were lying around town in plain sight and went to hidden gems like the top of a hill where we had a lovely picnic with homemade scones and a breathtaking view of the bay. We are glad to have a deeper knowledge about this sleepy seaside town and had an amazing time! We would highly recommend Marie to anyone wanting to get to know Akaroa beyond just the surface level.
