5.00We had an amazing time on the Marlborough Sounds Ultimate Cruise. We saw so many birds, as well as dolphins and seals, which was incredible. The team was fantastic—Bella and Andy were especially wonderful and made the experience even more enjoyable. It was such a lovely and relaxing way to discover the beauty of Queen Charlotte Sound. Highly recommended!
High expectations but disappointing.

3.00I was disappointed on a number of levels. 1. Nowhere does it mention we have to stop and collect other people (3 stops in total) a lot of on water time wasted 2. The boat’s engines are so powerful that no one could sit outside without getting soaked. So everyone is crammed into a small cabin. 3. So extra stops and crammed into the cabin for most of the 4hr trip 4. Solo passenger… basically ignored. Not even given QR Code at the end
Excellent

5.00It was a very interesting boat trip where the staff always treated all guests very attentively, politely , friendly and caring. Unfortunately, we had the worst weather imaginable. It was raining in streams or rather pouring. We were driven to selected places for wildlife watching and these were the highlights: so close to wildlife was very nice. You don't usually experience that. Also, the lot of information the tour guide gave was great, Unfortunately, we do not understand New Zealand English well and had to You can cut everything with the dictation machine. Now we've translated everything and we know. But the boss adjusted the weather of the excursion and shortened the off hours in coordination with the guests. Everything optimal there were sufficient warm drinks, to eat and a round of wine or other drink. It wasn't easy for everyone involved as have made the best of it
Unforgettable experience

Then we saw Dusky Dolphins jumping and lots of sea birds. We saw gulls, shags, including the king shag, south island saddled and Robin, a yellow crowns parakeet, a bellbird, and then some fur seals. Loved it all!
