We had a wonderful trip on the R Tucker Thompson. The crew were all excellent; very helpful, and also both entertaining and educational with what they were telling us. The ship itself was great fun to be on - you could help out as much or as little as you wanted with the actual sailing; plus also for the adventurous, they offered opportunities to climb the rigging or climb out onto the bowsprit (with safety gear, of course). There was a great range of drinks available (extra cost); and the shared snack platter that was available had a great range of and generous amounts of food. All in all, a great afternoon out and would highly recommend.

Amazing dedication of staff on the ship who showed their love for what they do. Explaining the story behind the group who run the experience was very interesting.

Absolute unique and very pleasant experience on the sun downer sail boat. Kids enjoyed it very much by exploring the sail boat and interacting with the crew.

Amazing...we will never forget this experience. Kids had fun and we spoke about the hard work that goes into maintaining that ship. Crew members were friendly and easy to talk to.

Absolutely Amazing!! This experience will always be one of our favorite memories of our trip to New Zealand. Not only does all the money go to charity, but they let you help with the rigging, hauling up the sails, and climbing the ropes. I even got to sit on top of the mast for awhile. It was awesome. 100% would recommend to locals and tourists.

What a fun afternoon. The crew were friendly and helpful. The skipper allowed my "first mate" -- an old salt -- to drive the boat for a bit, which pleased my husband to no end. Bay of Islands is incredibly beautiful and this was a special way to view it. Apparently this boat and its history are renown in the area; when we mentioned to locals we were going aboard they all agreed "oh, that's such a great ship."

Beautiful ship, stunning sunny afternoon with a moderate breeze, perfect for sailing. Friendly and informative crew. We really enjoyed our sundowner sail. Pity we didn’t go for the whole day experience. Maybe next time.

Beautiful ship and very helpful/accommodating staff. Fun watching people climb the rigging… Didn’t venture up myself though.
