Things to do in Akaroa

Highly recommend! Remember to exchange your ticket first. The event wasn't too crowded or noisy, so the experience was great. We were lucky enough to see Hector's dolphins! Super cute!

great experience as the farm tour even though we got some cold because the temperature suddenly drop on that day but the farming still open and provide as the raincoat,

This boat offers a variety of beverages including orange juice, coffee, beer, and water, as well as local cookies. The captain is experienced and participated in the rescue efforts of a recent competitor's capsizing incident. The sea route offers beautiful scenery, and the crew assists in searching for dolphins, penguins, and sea lions. Everyone is very nice. I will definitely choose this boat again next time!

Location: Akaroa The captain took us on a crazy dolphin chase, and we found so many dolphins that day! Awesome!! Oh, and there's also a very cute and friendly dog on board~

Our guide Ben and Maddie was very patient and professional. Highly knowledgeable of the area and explains aspects of sea kayak to us all. We saw the little penguins eggs and seals on rocks plus bonuses of spotting hector dolphins. Make sure to bring a water proof pouch to take pictures.

the tour was great. the tour guide was explaining about the alpaca farm so well. within the tour, we got opportunities to interact with the alpacas.

We had such a wonderful time at this alpaca tour in New Zealand. The farm was beautiful and peaceful, and the alpacas were incredibly gentle and well cared for. One of the highlights was getting to feed the alpacas up close — they were friendly, curious, and absolutely adorable!

I recently went on the Akaroa Dolphins Harbour Nature Cruise, and it was easily the highlight of my trip! If you are a nature lover, this experience is absolutely worth it. The Highlights The wildlife sightings were spectacular. We were incredibly lucky to check off the "big three" of the harbor: Hector’s Dolphins: The absolute stars of the show. Seeing these rare, playful dolphins up close was a magical experience. Albatross: We were treated to the sight of these majestic birds gliding effortlessly over the water. New Zealand Fur Seals: We spotted several seals lounging on the rocks, which added a lovely touch to the coastal scenery. A Quick Tip for Travelers It is worth noting that the sea swell can get quite high once you head out toward the harbor entrance. Overall, the crew was professional, the scenery was breathtaking, and the wildlife encounters were once-in-a-lifetime. I can’t recommend this cruise enough!
