Reviews
Very professional service. The boat was clean, the staff were friendly and attentive, and they shared a lot of interesting information throughout the trip. The tour duration was well planned and very efficient for exploring the Bay of Islands.
This is the best way to enjoy the Bay of Islands... You can visit various lovely islands, and the cheerful and friendly guides make the tour even more enjoyable. Since you can also do a very simple hike, we recommend comfortable shoes rather than slippers. There is also time to swim or scuba dive, so if you are interested, you can bring the related equipment and enjoy the glass-like, beautiful sea more vividly. ^^ Equipment such as flippers are available for rental. We highly recommend trying it. Absolutely on a day with good weather!!
