5.00This was a great tour! Captain Adam and Saqkara were fabulous! Before the tour they were in contact with me. They found out that our ship's docking time had changed and texted me to see if we wanted to change our tour time. During the tour they were helpful, courteous, and knowledgeable. We are so glad we chose this tour. It was all on boat (no buses or whatnot). We got off and explored on two islands. Our day was gorgeous for weather and wildlife sightings (and pictures). - but I'm sure that had little to do with them 😉lol. We went through the hole in the rock slowly and from both ways, which was tremendous. Whenever there were wildlife sightings, the captain made sure we all saw. Highly tecommended!

5.00The Hole in the Rock cruise with the two-island tour truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment I booked through TripAdvisor, the communication was seamless and thoughtful. This is a family-owned company that genuinely cares about their guests, prioritizing safety while also making sure everyone has an incredible experience. We were lucky with perfect weather, but what made the day unforgettable was a pod of playful, curious dolphins that followed our boat all the way to the first island stop. Watching them jump, play, and interact in their natural habitat was absolutely magical. Even the captain mentioned that this wasn’t typical so we knew how special it was. At the first island, we had about 30 minutes to explore on our own. We took a short hike to a stunning viewpoint before heading back to the boat. From there, we made our way to the Hole in the Rock (definitely recommend the 4.5-hour tour). We had pre-ordered lunch through the tour company, and it was excellent. A vegetarian sandwich, brownie, large blueberry muffin, apple, and a drink. If you tend to get hungry, I’d highly recommend ordering ahead. It’s from High Tide Bakery & Café and absolutely worth it. On the way, we were in for another treat, we were able to pass through the Hole in the Rock and even spotted a seal resting high up on the rocks. The day just kept getting better. Our second island stop gave us about an hour to either relax at the café with panoramic views or explore. We chose to hike about 1.5 km, surrounded by sheep and overlooking untouched beaches. It felt unreal. Before heading back, the captain fed the snapper at the pier, which was fun to watch as they gathered near the surface. This was honestly one of the best tours we’ve ever done. It was perfectly paced, with just the right balance of guided experience and time to explore independently. The captain and his teammate were incredibly personable and made sure everyone felt comfortable and cared for. Their energy and attention to detail made the whole experience feel relaxed and special. If you’re considering this tour, I highly recommend it, especially because it’s a family-run business that truly goes above and beyond. We never once felt rushed. I was not paid to write this review, just genuinely had an amazing experience.

5.00This is a must do trip. Excellent skipper Zak and second mate Bluebell made the trip more worthwhile. It was rough out around the hole in the rock (because of the storm) it was great getting wet and rocking over the waves.

5.00Wow - we had such a great time on this tour! First of all, we were blessed with some sunshine in the middle of a bunch of rainy days, so that was incredible. Secondly, skipper Nic and crew members Bluebell and Bree (who I believe was on her last tour before going back to the U.S) went out of their way to make it an especially memorable trip for my son, Levi. They happily answered all of his curious questions, and Captain Nic even gave him the chance to steer the boat (supervised of course🙂) at the end. Without going into too much detail on here, Levi is facing some lifelong health challenges, so we’ve made the decision to do more trips like this as a family when we can. This boat trip was an incredibly special moment for him, and it will be a lifelong memory for us all. It was so kind of the crew. Thank you so much! Rachael, Chris and Levi Woodrow

5.00The crew were great - friendly and knowable. Going on a tour in a smaller vessel made you feel you’re not just a number in a large crowd. The bay of islands is an amazing place, and the tour was made even better by seeing a pod of dolphins up close.
Great day out

5.00Very good, professional tour. Safety and care of the passengers on the boat was very evident. The had 2 stops and were able to walk to the lookout for both. The weather was very kind to us, and we were able to appreciate the views, rain would have made this much more difficult The crew were attentive and made sure everyone was ok when we were in open water and it was rougher. We learnt alot about the area through the Captain's commentary
