Reviews
Awesome itinerary, you are guaranteed to see a lot of dolphins, and will also take you to a fur seal habitat near the sea. This ecological boat is very protective of wild animals and will also raise funds for ecological research in New Zealand. Highly recommended! The scenery is super beautiful
Saw various types of wildlife on this cruise in Akaroa. The Hectors dolphins were very small but cute, swimming around the boat. Was also lucky enough to spot a young Humpback whale too! Great experience on this cruise with very dedicated crews.
bought tickets online which was very fast and efficient to use upon reaching the place . enter the blue shed shop and extra for physical voucher. cruise guide was detailed and shared knowledge about the experience. saw some deal and dolphins too.

It's a two hours pleasure experience, we saw many doplins and a seal and the bueatifu sense view.
Staff are very friendly & responsive for bad weather arrangement and rescheduling. We highly recommend this. The view was very nice dolphins and sea seals were so cute. There are free hot chocolate, coffee, milk tea and tea.
Absolutely loved the cruise — stunning scenery, friendly crew, and a smooth, well-run experience. A memorable dolphin viewing outing from start to finish.
My trip got cancelled. Operators was responsible and emailed 1 day before to pre-empt. Refund was given by klook with screenshot of the email conversation with the operator.
Terrific way to explore the Akaroa Harbour. spotting dolphins, seals, penguins native to the area were awesome. If you’re in Akaroa this experience is a must and is family friendly too.
