Overpriced and not well organised

2.00We were your only booking for this tour so you gave us to another water taxi to take us for the inicial walk. After reporting at 8am we departed 9am and reach the beach to hike the hike at 10.21. The hike takes 2h 11m and out next water taxi was 12.30 making is rush through the walk. You gave us a packed lunch which by the time we finished out walk it was soggy salad sandwich and no time to eat it as the boat captain was waiting on the beach. Then we did the Kayak. The tour guide said don’t worry about taking photos, enjoy it and I will take photos and email them to you. So we didn’t take photos and you didn’t email them. I feel this tour was a complete rip off at $295pp.
Great trip!

5.00Sam was a great guide. A very relaxed experience. We saw Seals and their pups and had a very generous lunch on the beach. The walk back was a perfect finish to the day.

5.00This was a very well organised trip, even for non experienced kayakers. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made us feel confident at all times. The scenery on both the kayak and the walk back was amazing.
Beautiful location

3.00The walk and overall location are absolutely beautiful and definitely the highlight of the experience. The half-day guided kayak tour felt quite expensive for what was offered. While the guide was friendly, the pace felt very slow and the experience somewhat drawn out. I was also a bit confused about being asked for dietary requirements, as lunch ended up being a simple salad sandwich. One other downside was the wetsuit provided, which had a very unpleasant smell and didn’t seem clean. Overall, a lovely setting, but I wouldn’t personally recommend this tour based on value for money - I would just rent a kayak and self explore.

5.00Sam was an excellent guide for the kayaking portion of our experience. There are compartments on the kayaks to store your gear. They also include a dry bag for phones and keys. We were on the water about 3 hrs and took breaks along the way. We saw seals along the coast of an island - very exciting! After a nice lunch on the beach we took the self-guided hike along the coast. It was very shady and the trail was well-worn and clear. Beautiful views of the ocean and lots of waterfalls to see.
Fine day!

5.00Such a great trip. We did the kayaking section first with Mica and she was a fantastic guide. The sandwiches provided on the lunch stop were really good and we really enjoyed the walk back.

5.00A really great day out exploring the Abel Tasman. We booked the kayak and walk to try and see as much of the coastline in our time available. The company are very professional- advance information was clear. The staff on the day were very safety conscious whilst appearing relaxed and in control. A hearty and tasty lunch was provided as well as hot drinks. Our guide Sam was fabulous!
