5.00We were taken on a lovely guided walk on the island. Bevan was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable with regards to the flora and fauna. Unfortunately there were not many birds around- but that’s wildlife for you!
Interesting tour particularly if you are a twitcher.

4.00The boat tour was only 20 minutes and despite bad whether it was relatively calm. The small boat does have a toilet if required. We saw Albatrosses soaring around the boat and floating close by hoping for a feed. The walk around the island was easy and we saw a few native species pointed out by our knowledgeable guide. We recommend this tour.
Top attraction, but more time needed for visits.

4.00It is a fantastic island, visit very short and the walk across the island even shorter. While the guides Natasja and her crew did an excellent job.

5.00The Ulva Island Explorer was fantastic. Our guide Charles, was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly so passionate about the natural world. His insights into the native birdlife and ecosystems made the walk feel like a special privilege. The sights and sounds of Ulva Island were stunning, and Charles helped us see and understand so much more than we ever expected. Both tours were well organised, relaxed yet informative, and truly showcased the best of Stewart Island. We couldn’t recommend these experiences highly enough. Five stars all the way!
Awesome experience

5.00Nice half day trip out with Jan/Jen. We saw some rare birds on this trip. Jan was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Apparently there are Kiwis as well on the island but they are more on the Boulder beach area that we didn't visit.
