Nice and stable cruise even in strong gust and waves.
Perfect!
We took the cruise with RealNZ. Contrary to what was stated on the Book Me website — that the cruise lasts about 2 hours — it turned out to be 1.5 hours, and I don’t think that counts as “about 2 hours.” In addition, the boat smelled terrible, both inside and out on the deck. A buffet was prepared for groups, and the smell of old frying oil lingered in our noses for the entire 1.5 hours. It just wasn’t okay
You bought a 2 hour tour and it was 1h30 don’t book by book me

Beautiful day out!
Loved this cruise with RealNZ. Beautiful weather, not overcrowded on the upper deck. Enjoyed the dunk under the waterfall on the return trip. Definitely would recommend.
