“Great crew, very informative, extremely comfortable boat and bus trip. Best of all no crowds or other boats. Even in bad weather,rain and wind, the scenery and mood of the place made it very worthwhile. if you can stay in Manapouri or Te Anau as it's a long day 7 hours. T.A full of places to eat and stay.”

“What a memorable experience! Our guide was knowledgeable, entertaining, and clearly loved his job! The rest of the staff was friendly and helpful.. They have everything you may need - beanies, windbreakers, and sunscreen! I was a little Read more”

“Fun experience. Definitely get the splash jacket because the way back is chilly if you are wet. Driver Andrew made the route interesting.”

“It was really special! It was raining and a bit foggy in the beginning which was cool. We sat both seals and a bunch of crested penguins. After that, the rain stopped and the sun popped out. We really got to see it all.”

“Tour guide was very witty and knew his topics of history and fauna very well. As such he was very entertaining. The tour was paced just right. Had a great time was well worth the time.”

“Great guides, very informative on all the buses and both tours. We enjoyed our guides.”

“Quite an expensive trip due to all the travelling involved. From Te Anau, 20 minutes by bus to Manapouri, then 45 minutes by boat to West Arm, then 60 minutes by coach to Deep Cove, then a 2 and a half hour cruise by boat which travels dowRead more”

“If you visit the South Island, this is a must do activity! The staff is amazing and our river guide was amazing. I wasn't sure how the hike to the waterfall would turn out, but it was probably one of the highlights of the trip. You could tell how much Read more”

“Wow! The staff was extremely accommodating throughout the day, regardless of the light rain we experienced. From the drivers of the buses, to the captains and their staffs working the boats everyone was fantastic & the day went quickly and was well organized. The buses and boats were clean and well kept. Having experienced both Doubtful and Milford this week, this tour was relaxing and informative and didn’t seem as long as I imagined. I loved the fact that everyone involved stressed the importance of preservation, and great to hear profits from this tour are donated to preserving this incredible place. Great team effort!”

“Had a wonderful day’s touring including the catamaran and the walk through the park. Claudia who collected us from the Marahau car park and joined us sailing was knowledgeable and friendly. Very much enjoyed listing to the birds on Adele Island and watching the sea lions with pups at play. Our walk out was a bit longer than expected @ 4+ hours but picturesque.”

“Ulva Island was wonderful all the crew were great. karen our guide was amazing. She is engaging and passionate about her job.”

“Lots of fun and a great adrenaline rush! The handrails were burning my hands in the rear seat so Andreas turned the heat down but they got hot again. Seems there’s a problem with the heater on the last seat rail in the smaller boat.”

“I thoroughly recommend doing this activity for anyone spending time in Abel Tasman. The shuttle was a great way to get to Anchorage Bay which had the most amazing walks and views as well as being the most wonderful beach. The sail back was the perfect way to finish of our day and teh crew where both very accommodating and informative. I recommend buying the lunches from the operator as they were well worth it.”

“This is a very relaxed way to see the coastline while sailing along. We were lucky and had a beautiful day with some breeze so the sails could be out. The guides, Inky and Steph, were great. They were informative and we learned about the islands, coves and the wildlife. There were some good photo opportunities. We stopped for an hour at Anchorage bay for lunch. It is stunning. The lunch was a wrap and some cakes plus an apple. Tea and coffee was available on board throughout the trip. All in all this is a great trip. Be prepared to get wet feet when you board and leave the…”

“This was even better than we expected it to be! Angelika, our guide, was great - she told us everything we wanted to know about local flora and fauna, made sure everyone was able to keep up and kept us well-fed and hydrated throughout the day. Also, her picking us up in town was really convenient, as we were travelling by bus and train, and getting to Kaiteriteri and beyond would have been impossible otherwise. Would definitely recommend this tour to others hoping to explore Abel Tasman, one of the most beautiful parts of NZ - which is saying something :)”
