Loved our experience and my whole family had a wonderful time on the lake. The carvings were easy to see and it was up to our expectations! Great afternoon out and highly recommend this boat.
Had an amazing sailing trip with Sail Fearless! My 4 boys absolutely enjoyed it with the highlight nor only being the beautiful carvings, but being able to jump off the boat and swim in the beautiful crystal clear waters of Taupõ Moana! Thanks crew, definitely recommending to friends and whanau.
Great skipper and so informative. Staff were all excellent and so much fun
We brought our tickets online only 20 minutes before the last trip for the day (5:00 pm trip) and was by far the highlight of our long weekend! Our guide was awesome, friendly, hospitable and very knowledgeable about the history of Lake Taupo and the Maori rock carvings. The views were breathtaking... We will defiantly be back with friends soon!! Thanks for an amazing experience team!
Very good experience and staff are so friendly. Will be back again.......
You can enjoy a lot the experience with the boat and the beautiful view! Take a time for to do this trip! Tks guys!
Amazing trip and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to see the lake and the carvings from a different view. Loved it and would do it again anytime. Great tour guide made the trip very comfortable
Loved the flexibility of the skipper. We had a small, friendly bunch to sail with. That made it easy to move about the boat. The pizza aboard was a lovely touch. Our skipper was highly knowledgeable over the area, nz and so many other things. The swabs and bean bags are a great idea. Fortunate to have a spectacular weather. Shame about no wind. Gladly recommend to others
Loved the whole experience. Very fun and exciting. Best part is that you get to experience the boat ride as well, while watching the others parasail as well...its like two attractions in one!!
Professional and friendly! Highly recommended. Plus sooooooo much fun!!! I'd do it again in a heart beat
Would say this is a absolute must do when in Lake Taupo. The guide was awesome. The sail to the rock was smooth an enjoyable. And a swim at the end was a bonus
It was very amazing my boys enjoyed it loved the maori cravings and the yummy as pizza and drinks and the captain was absolutely awesome thanks heaps for an amazing experience something me and the boys will never forget. Thanks heaps I highly recommend
Would 100% recommend this experience to everyone! The boat was well presented and in immaculate condition. The crew were all super friendly, very knowledgeable and just absolutely fantastic 5 starts for the crew! The views on the journey out were stunning and the rock carving itself was spectacular! Free hot drinks on board as well as alcoholic beverages you can buy, even got a freshly baked warm muffin for the journey back to the harbor!
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip aboard Barbary. Our captain, Jamie, was very entertaining and informative. We had beautiful weather, although the wind was lacking so we motored more than sailed. The kids loved a chance to steer the ship.
Pleased my daughter n I did it, was a awesome experience great views n the staff were so lovely.
Big Sky Parasailing is a fantastic experience. Very friendly staff that made us feel at ease through the whole process.Our teenage children absolutely loved it! The photos from the gopro are awesome and something they'll look back on alot. Big thumbs up guys:)
Really enjoyed our sail, great value for money. Very relaxing and interesting too Loved being powered by wind or electric - very peaceful and no fumes! We didn’t go on sunset cruise in the end but went the next morning.
Was such a great trip around the lake definitely recommend the evening trip so you can see the sunset ❤️? and the staff are lovely
It's simply amazing!!! Will definitely do it again.
Considering I dont like water this was a great experience husband loved it for his bday. Skipper was a funny guy so thanku for our experience
Sailing on Barbary to the Maori Rock Carvings was fantastic, although we didn't have the nicest weather, Barbary was a very smooth sail through Lake Taupo to the Maori Rock Carvings. Our captain, Sarah, was a skilled yachtsman who told us about the area and the boat. The Maori Carvings were beautiful to see and a must do if you are in the area. Thank you!
Very good experience, we did the “ tour” on a moondaymorning. Beautiful weather, nice staff and a great experience. Worth very penny and a “ a top must do” when you visit Taupo.
What a fabulous thing to do! My experience was wow I want to do this again! The hosts were great and engaging. Would recommend to others as a must do.
The trip was memorable with the whole family on board and of course with the amazing staff on board too.
Oliver was a great guide! The tour was amazing and fun. It was a rough day with a lot of wind but we had a little motor attached on the kayak supporting us. Would definitely recommend.
Even though the water was a bit rough, the experience was great! Big shout out to the crew, Craig and the Skipper. Got to meet people from different parts of the world which was lovely. Stopped for a swim in this beautiful cozy little spot. So glad we booked ourselves on this 2.5 hour trip. Was definitely worth the money. Memories to take home for sure ??
It was an amazing time for me and wife and my two boys.The pilot was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
We did the sunset cruise and what an amazing experience it was! David is an experienced skipper and wonderful host. The Moari rock carvings were beautiful and the sunset just gorgeous. Thank you so much for such an unforgettable experience!
Great time with Bruce and Jess. Looked after us very well. Great Experience for everyone. Also relaxing ?. Thank you
Great team; great boat. Just great experience
Really yummy food. I really needed a scoop of ice cream with the chocolate pate but the waitress forgot to ask I think as you could have added it on I found out afterwards.Very rich. My fish needed a little bit more sauce with the rice but it was all very delicious. My pork belly entree was my favourite. Kids menu is good too my son really enjoyed his steak
Beautiful day to be out on the lake. Great hosts, friendly staff and a great commentary, enjoyed the hot drink and muffin. It was nice having an option to purchase something from the bar also. Thanks for a lovely afternoon, perfect activity for our girls weekend away.
Service was fantastic, food was good ! Great views to enjoy while you have your meal. Would definitely book again . Tried there famous FreakShake for dessert and was not disappointed !
Absolutely delicious. Wonderful presentation.
Food was great, came out in a good amount of time. Service was also great and I was really pleased that my allergies were noted and taken seriously.
Excellent food!
