專業可靠的服務

出海當天從網頁得知天氣不錯,可以成行。但到達碼頭後才知有變,職員態度誠懇地解釋天氣的影響,讓我們自己決定是否繼續行程,毫不勉強。如果決定不去,還可選擇退款或改日子。眼前顧客有不同的決定,職員都一一配合。雖然心情當然受影響,不過天氣無人能控制,提供活動的公司能如此回應,服務顧客,還有何要求呢!絕對值得大讚!!

Auckland Whale and Dolphin Safari

完美的旅程!既看到了鲸鱼又看到了很多海豚,海豚会跟在船的周围游玩。建议出海前一定要涂防嗮霜(如果你想坐在船头)还要穿一件厚的防水的外套。

看鲸鱼和海豚

很不错的体验,看到了很多海豚,也看到了鲸鱼,虽然不多只是一会儿也挺震撼的。预定后第一次因为不熟悉地方找不到停车位以至于赶不上,打了电话帮我们换了时间,很人性!
