Bit disappointed, after travelling for 5 hours from Queenstown and paid 1200 for our group booking, there was not much to watch. Our cruise was also small as compared to other operators. Tea / coffee was also cold, no option to heat up.
Yes - book it !

Arrived early to low cloud and drizzly rain but as we left the dock the clouds lifted, rain stopped and we had blue skies and stunning views. The commentary and smaller boat with less people was great. Definitely recommend.
