Friendly staff ? I enjoyed a lot
Great trip - excellent way to see Tauranga harbour. Pilot and deckhand were pleasant.
My partner and I booked this cruise and weren’t disappointed, we had the best day and enjoyed the trip and seeing all the dolphins and wildlife. The crew went the whole extra mile to make us feel welcome. Thanks again for having us
Great little hour to spend in the harbour. Great tour guides & tour information. Thank you
Such an amazing activity to do: affordable price, great service, super super friendly staff and beautiful views. Highly recommended A+++++++++
Spent a scenic hour cruising round the island and harbour.
Great fun in a beautiful setting on the river- lots to do for all ages. The activities kept all our multigenerational family happy- especially the teenagers . What a brilliant faculty on the edge of Tauranga.
Awesome day with the whanau. Caters for both young and old. Ample picnic space to set up a gazebo. Nice friendly staff and super safe. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back again.
Weather was amazing, it was so hot. Our kids really enjoyed it, we particularly enjoyed the paddleboarding and kayaking. The water was cold but perfect for this weather. We had a great time. Highly recommend.
Our extended family of 11, from 2yrs - 52yrs, were very impressed with this established & well maintained park! It's clean & tidy & the staff are very helpful, knowledgeable & experienced. There's much more to this place then just water activities. We spent the day on the water, as well as, rock climbing, abseiling, volleyball, & trampolining. There's something for everyone. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed!
The boys had a great afternoon in the water.
The stand out were the staff, they were friendly, encouraging and took safety very seriously which was impressive. The activities are great for all levels of ability and if you have some courage stored up for a sunny day then this is the place for you :-) We were between 35-40yrs old and had a blast trying the BLOB and hydro slide. Great day out!
You can find discounts for Waimarino on book me Tauranga. You can pack a picnic and there are loads of activities for adults and children. Definitely worth the $$$
Love this place as there is something for everyone. We have taken our whole famy a few times, grandparents inuded. We took our 3 year old and she loves to be paddled around in a canoe and there's a cool little slightly warm pool for her and kids of all ages love the slip n slide. There's every thing from canoes, paddle boards, diving boards, swing, blob, trampoline on and off the water, rock climbing wall, paddle boats slip in slide warm pool and plenty of picnic tables and trees to picnic under. 5 stars well worth it. You can have as much fun as you like.
Perfect end to our Easter holiday?? (2017)
My family and I really enjoyed the Kewpie cruise! Great Views of the Mount and Harbour!
A lovely way to spend the afternoon! Out to Matakana Island, and a stop-off for a swim and play on the beach. Kewpie picked us up on the next round so we could complete the harbour cruise and get a different perspective on Pilot Bay. Thank you Kewpie Cruises :)
Friendly skipper and crew. Really enjoyed the island hop on/off option.
We did the 11.00 cruise, got off at Matakana Island and were picked up by the 12.00 cruise. Kewpie was very punctual and we had a great time. I would recommend this to anyone . We are a pair of grandparents and had two grandkids 7 and 10 with us so they went free.
Lovely morning outing. Very informative. Well stocked on drinks if needed. My kids an I loved it.
Took my sister who is visiting from Australia on this Very relaxing cruise. Great hosts. Very affordable due to kids being free which was the best bonus for me due to having 4 little ones. They enjoyed every minute. Thank you and look forward to the next trip
Wonderful hosts, informative pleasure cruise and a bar on board too. This was our second trip and we absolutely recommend it
Excellent short cruise right at the base of the Mt Maunganui. There were not a lot of people with us, but they are missing the experience for sure! Very informative. Highly recommended
The crew of Kewpie couldn't be nicer. They are genuine good people and nothing was too much trouble. From helping us haul our buggy on board, to knowledgeably pointing out places of interest in the harbour. We got off at Matakana Island for an hour which was tranquil and relaxing (if I was doing it again I would take some insect repellent). We were a young family with a 3 and 6 month old. A great trip to do for all the family.
We took the grandkids on the kewpie on Saturday.. What an amazing day we had. Thank you so much. We will be booking again soon.
Very friendly staff. Good commentary over the PA, and the stopover on Matakana Island is a must
