Wow, just wow. Kayaking on shimmering blue water, with the stars above, through thick dark mangroves. Beautiful! Indescribable! Brilliantly led by Hayley and Jonty ❤️

Absolutely unforgettable! I gave this 5-stars because this bioluminescence kayak tour in Auckland blew us away. We paddled through calm waters lit up by four different types of glowing organisms—each more mesmerizing than the last. From sparkling plankton to glowing jellyfish, every stroke of the paddle created a trail of magical light. Our guides Hailey and Lucas were knowledgeable, passionate, and made the experience feel both safe and inspiring. Stargazing and storytelling added a beautiful touch. This was more than just a tour—it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that left us in awe of nature’s wonders. Highly recommend Social Nature Movement and the SNM team to anyone visiting Auckland!

This was an amazing experience, great knowledgeable guides. The bioluminescence was spectacular, so much bluer and brighter than I expected. I recommend this to anyone with time in Auckland. Once in a lifetime experience!

My whole family went on the trip and I was teamed up with my husband who also didn't have any experience on kayaking. We struggled at the beginning, but with consistant help we were able to enjoy and come back safely. The guide had abundant knowledges about bioluminence as well as stars.

We had an awesome experience during our pre-booked tour with Social Nature Movement, and we are glad to site a 10/10 experience of bioluminescence phenomenon. Our tour guide Paul and his team-mate were extremely helpful, informative, cooperative and knowledgeable. Keep up the good work guys and we surely recommend Social Nature Movement.

This was a great experience for us coming from the northern hemisphere. Not only was seeing the bioluminescence amazing but we got to learn more about why it was available to see when we visited. And we also got a little stargazing lesson too which was exciting because we got to see the Milky Way and southern cross
