Would do it again! 10/10
We had an awesome time! Definitely go when it’s raining, or after heavy rain.
Loved the experience aboard the mitre peak. A smaller boat but ideal amount of passengers! Very comfortable and it covered a longer way than others. Did the 8:50 departure and it was perfect weather sunny and may waterfalls after a long raining night! Captain gave so much info and staff was kind! I booked based on price deal but it turned out better than expected!
When I saw some of the other boats I was so relieved we had booked with Mitre Peak. Smaller boat, more space to move around and less coach trips to contend with at check in! Booking the last cruise of the day was also a good move - the road was quiet when we were driving back to Te Anau and all the coaches had long since left! The trip itself was wonderful - I was perfectly placed to have the dolphins jumping up right next to me and we had blue sky - might have meant less waterfalls, but you can never complain about sunshine. It was magical.
