We booked the winter eco experience aboard the Albatross V. Having the dolphins swim alongside our boat for 20 minutes was an amazing experience. Our skipper had a great personality, very knowledgeable and shared lots of stories and information with us. We had a wonderful day out and enjoyed the muffins. Great fun. We would highly recommend this experience.
Amazing. Will be doing it again.
my partner and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary in paihia so this was a perfect way to celebrate this milestone in our relationship. Loved every minute of it! ?
Mike and Robert were amazing. Great yarns and tasty food. The sailing was ok too...it was amazing. Captain Mike is a very experienced captain and had amazing facts of all the boats in the bay and was a privilege to be able to spend the day on his vessel.
Whole day was fantastic. We had dolphins playing on the bow and the hosts are lovely - feels like you are sailing with friends. Islands are beautiful and the lunch was delicious (albeit a bit small - take snacks!)
Lizzy communicated with us due to the weather. Lizzy and Amy were friendly and understanding. We are novice riders and the ride was amazing, with great views of the Bay. The horses were paired to our experience and behaved extremely well. We thoroughly enjoyed our virgin ride. Even might have another go another time.
Was a great family experience. Staff very friendly and helpful. My son was a bit nervous, but staff was there to put his mind at ease, and he ended up enjoying himself. Would definitely recommend.
We had an amazing time here on the 09/06. Emma picked us up from Paihia and was super friendly. She explained everything and made us feel confident even if we were just beginners. The views were amazing, and we enjoyed riding on Moana and Ace. Thanks for the lovely experience.
Enjoyed this experience where we had everyone from complete novice riders to experienced ones in the group. Our host catered to all needs and went out of her way to ensure everyone enjoyed themselves and stayed safe. The time went quickly with a variety of views - roadside, sea and bush riding. The horses were reasonably well behaved, and of course the swim was lots of fun. Thanks!
