My wife and I undertook your morning cruise on Tuesday November 25th. May we thank you for a super morning - despite deteriorating conditions? We really enjoyed seeing the albatrosses, the blue penguin, yellow-eyed penguins, the seals and other birdlife. Your crew were really super and the refreshments on board most welcome. We have now returned to the UK with many memories of New Zealand wildlife - and hospitality - and on both counts your excursion made a significant contribution. Many thanks.

I was very impressed with the friendly, informative and intelligent crew. Thanks for taking me out. Wish you all the best in the future."
Kind regards, Peter Johnson.
