Fantastic aviation centre and NZ is so lucky have this. We have visited a lot of war and aviation museums worldwide and this rates up there as one of the best. The recreation of famous scenes and the artefacts of famous pilots such as The Red Baron make it extra special. A must see for aviation enthusiasts or anyone interested in history.
Absolutely top! This museum is the best i have ever seen regarding aviation. I definitely recommend it. 👍
Absolutely loved this! Such amazing detail in each exhibition and stories! Would highly recommend for any enthusiast
Excellent displays of air craft used in world 1 and 2. We spent almost 4 hours reading the history and enjoying the displays. Wonderful setting too as the hangars are modern and beautifully lit. It was worth our trip to Blenheim to see.
This is a must see if you visit Blenheim. The diorama displays and effects are amazing. The museums are so jam packed full of history. We took 4.5 hrs to get through both WW1 and WW2 museums and even then did not see everything. Very enjoyable thing to do.
It was an informative experience especially for those who wants to know more about WW1 and WW2.Good value for money and you will come out witty.
We went to the exhibition 12 years ago and decided to have another look . It is a great display for all ages. Very informative panels. The guides were interactive and had amazing knowledge. Thank you for sharing .
Wonderful displays of WW1 @ WW2 planes with plenty of interesting facta and stories to view. Staff were also on hand to answer questions. Fantastic place well worth visiting!
It was mind blowing. The scenes and people were so real. I got lost in reading their stories. 10/10
An absolute must see event in Blenheim. Fantastic exhibits and memorabilia. Allies and foes from WWI and WWII treated with great respect. So much to take in I will have to go again. Do not miss wonderful museum.
We had a fabulous day out exploring the wineries. The driver was knowledgeable, friendly and managed to keep track of all of his passengers whereabouts. He even added an extra quick stop to the chocolate shop at the end prior to going home so we could see one more winery. Loved all the wineries we chose to visit but highly recommend Wither Hills as it was such an amazing venue with amazing service and the best food! I will be dreaming about the Hapuku wings we had there for the rest of my life.
Guide was sooo kind and scenary was really beautiful. Island was soooo nice a way to go there also really great trip.
Nice Dolphins and Birds!
We had a great trip out to the Island with friendly and experienced staff. We saw some beautiful birds and were lucky enough to see three Hector’s dolphins on the way back. Very enjoyable afternoon.
It was a great experience.
Our group of seven, old, young and inbetween all loved our trip out into the sounds. We saw penguins, seals and dolphins and the guide and captain went out of their way to ensure we got the best experience. They were friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Simply a MUST DO if you are in the area.
This was one of the best things I have done. We had two young children and the staff and guides went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. They were knowledgeable on all the wildlife and local area, the views and scenery aren’t found anywhere else and the wildlife was everywhere. If you ever have a chance to do this cruise it would be too good to miss.
Accommodating staff
Absolutely loved this cruise. Weather was perfect, which always enhances an experience like this. Steve from BeachComber Cruises was friendly and informative. Amazing scenery, confortable ride. Couldn't fault it.
Great trip, lovely scenery. Sounds are beautiful
Made this tour for the third time and it was just an amazing day out, highly recommended!
Brilliant way to explore the natural scenic Queen Charlotte Sounds.
This exceeded our expectations. On top of the stunning views from Furneaux to Punga Cove, Jason was an amazing guide who gave a scientific commentary. We saw dusky dolphins and he was a pro with them. As tangata whenua, he had exceptional local, first-hand knowledge about the history and environmentalism. We ended our walk by jumping off the wharf at Punga Cove and seeing more dolphins on the way home!
This deal is definitely worth it! It was a beautiful day and the scenery is stunning! I enjoyed it so much that I want to come back again to do a different route...
Friendly and knowledgeable hosts. Beautiful views. Comfortable indoor seating with large wide widows but the upstairs outdoor viewing was the place to be. Dolphins, Penguins, weka, just a few of the wildlife spotted, feeding the fish a delightful bonus.
Was a beautiful day just amazing going through the sounds the skipper was really good and his commentary was great with all the knowledge of the area ships cove was the best part stopping off there was great
More than just a mail run! Thoroughly enjoyed afternoon in the Sounds. Our captain / tour guide / mail man Jason was great! Had such good knowledge of the area. Highlights were seeing the King Shags, Dolphins, Seals at the salmon farm and feeding the blue cod and spottys. A Highly recommend!
