Things to do in Akaroa

Was an awesome tour to see the dolphins! The captain also gives good information about Akaroa as well. Would recommend taking sea sick tablets if you get motion sickness or sea sick though to make your time more enjoyable.

Must try experience! Had so much fun at the Farm meeting Alpacas and feeding them. Friendly staff. Very informative.

Amazing experience! Got to see Hector dolphins 🐬 and also a huml back whale. Polite and Friendly staff.

We had a wonderful private tour to Akaroa and the alpaca farm from Christchurch. Although it was more pricey, the private tour was absolutely worth it. The highlight of the trip was definitely the alpaca farm. We had plenty of time to feed, pat, and take photos with the alpacas, and we also learned a lot about these gentle animals from the informative session. Our driver & guide Zhen was friendly, helpful, and incredibly patient throughout the day. We especially appreciated how safely and smoothly he navigated the winding hill roads to the alpaca farm, which made the journey comfortable and enjoyable. The tour was well organised and relaxed, giving us enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Christchurch and looking for a memorable day out.

Great kayak trip! Our guide, Kevin, was fantastic—truly passionate about sharing the history of Akaroa and the reserve. The trip was well arranged, and we were lucky to see both seals and penguins along the way.
