Schöne Tour mit vielen Tieren
Uns hat die Tour sehr gut gefallen. Der Check-in war super einfach und die Crew sehr unterhaltsam. Wir haben Delfine, Pinguine, Robben und verschiedene Vögel sehen können. Drinnen gab es kostenlosen Tee und Kaffee.

Schöne Tour
Die Tour war super, das Boot großzügig und wir haben einige Delphine und Seehunde gesehen. Ich empfehle die Tour auch mit Kindern.

Wunderschön und erfolgreich
Ein toller Ausflug. Die Landschaft ist wunderschön und es wurden uns auch einige Dinge zu der Geschichte der Halbinsel und deren früheren Vulkanaktivität erklärt. Wir hatten tolles Wetter und haben mindestens an die 10 Delfine gesehen, welche freudig neben dem Boot hergeschwommen sind. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Rundfahrt zur Tierwelt von Akaroa
Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hat während der Fahrt einiges über das Land, die Tierwelt und Geschichte erzählt. Wir haben viele Vogelarten gesehen.“, sogar die blauäugigen Pinguine. Highlight waren dann die Hector Delfine. Etwas mehr Zeit um diese zu betrachten wäre schön gewesen. Alles in allem aber eine gute Bootstour.

Lohnenswerter Ausflug
Wir wurden freundlich empfangen,auf dem Weg zu den Delphinen gab es reichlich Informationen über die Küstenregion sowie die Tierwelt. Wir hatten Glück und sahen mehrere Delpine, danach fuhren wir zu einen Bucht mit Seelöwen, die Crew gab sich wirklich Mühe ihren Angaben gerecht zu werden. Ein empfehlenswertes Unternehmen.
