Reviews: New Zealand Kaikoura Day Tour (Departing from Christchurch, Including Whale Watching Boat Ticket) with Optional Departure Train
Guest User2025-12-28
The fish and chips included in the itinerary were absolutely delicious—the best fish and chips I've ever had! Unfortunately, we weren't lucky enough to see a whale flip over during whale watching, but we did see countless dolphins, which was truly spectacular! The tour included many scenic stops and views, making the whole trip very enjoyable and relaxing!
Reviews: Kaikōura: Kayak Sunset Tour with Seal Sightings

Nice, relaxed kayaking. Our tour guide Logan had a lot of interesting information to share on seals. The pedal kayaks are easy to use and since your hands are free, it's easy to take a picture "on the go".
Reviews: Hobbiton Movie set & Waitomo Caves Small Group Tour From Auckland

This was an amazing tour, Adil was very friendly and gave excellent advice. Be sure to research the weather for Hobbiton as it is a fully outdoor tour. Be prepared for a long day! Totally worth it!
Reviews: From Queenstown: Milford Sound Cruise & Glass-Roof Coach Tour
Guest User2024-07-28
We really enjoyed the bus trip there with our driver Shailendra who was very informative, insightful and fun. The cruise had some beautiful scenery despite the weather not being as good. The bus ride home was very long and quite a long day on the whole was the only downside for us but enjoyable experience on the whole.
Reviews: Christchurch Hop-On Hop-Off Tram

Great way to get an orientation to the city. The narration was quite informative particularly concerning the earthquake. The historic trams are a nice touch.
