A great way to spend the day. Started with Hot Water Beach, then a bit of walk to Cathedral Cove, ending with a hike up Mt Paku for the views. Be ready with some drinking water. The experience was made even better by our awesome guide and driver, Clay.

Such a wonder kayak trip to the Donut Island. Our guide Fransico is so professional and friendly, sharing with us the brief history of these beautiful islands and the respectful way to treat the reserve as expected by the local iwi. Would highly recommend this company and this experience. My family and my boys really enjoy it. Thank you team.

Wonderful tour! Tour guide very informative and giving much knowledge about local Island and history. We also served with Kawakawa Tea (Maori medical herb) and rest on an island. We were so lucky to met with such a beautiful sunset, calm sea and got a chance to see an eagle ray jumping out just beside out kayak! Overall experience is superb. 👌 5 star

When we got there we were told we were not able to kayaking into donut island due to large swells. Was given the option to reschedule but decided to go anyway as we were leaving the next day. Everyone else on the tour postponed so we got upgraded to a private tour! My fiancé and I had an amazing time, and was even offered to go into donut island once we got out there. But we decided against it as the swells around the back of the island were a bit too big for our us. Definitely worth giving this a go.

Everyone should do this day trip with Clay. So chill and personable, knowledgeable about the areas you visit and a good laugh. The trip itself is breathtaking and you get to see a lot of natural beauty. Highly recommend.

Amazing guide! Full of patience and experienced. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic day with a lot of adventures. Starting at the hot water beach, exploring cathedral cave and some look outs and at least relaxing in Miranda falls. Nice tour guide with exelent knowledge Do it!

My friend and I had a lovely day out on this tour. We are both in our mid 60s, fit and active, love adventures and meeting nice people. This tour fulfilled exactly what was described in the itinerary, there was flexibility and the driver was an absolute star. There were plenty of stops for refreshments (not provided) and bathroom breaks. There were 7 of us (including the driver) from 6 different countries so we had an interesting conversations also. By the end of the day some of us had exchanged details so that we can stay in touch. I recommend this tour.

It was such a nice day with Clay who showed us around throughout the day. The weather was also great and we enjoyed a lot, especially digging hot water in hot water beach. It was a fantastic experience!! Clay is a very funny and thoughtful guide, and very friendly. I really recommend the day tour to everyone.

Really a nice trip. Nice boat and a lot of information. Recommandable.

We had a fabulous time with Adam and Ella! They knew everything about anything! We got up close to cathedral cove as well! The stunning views and breath taking beaches! We went right inside a cave and saw some beautiful fish. We also had the chance to go snorkeling to see some Red Snapper up close!! Such an amazing tour!

Excellent experience end-to-end. Have already recommended company + trip to others. Loved being able to move around bow to stern…or stay inside in very comfy seats if wished. Toilet onboard a bonus & great for a quick change after snorkelling (optional but I recommend…appreciated that life jackets are freely offered to make your floating easier & which I + others took up)

Beautiful coastline stunning caves highly recommend this tour

Well paced informative tour of the marine reserve ( incl Cathedral cove) with time for swimming / snorkelling. Local guides who know their stuff. Warm shower onboard to rinse off after swimming followed by hot chocolate. What more could you ask for? Highly recommended.
