5.00This cruise was fantastic, our skippers were full of knowledge and made the whole journey amazing. We were lucky enough to see a young humpback whale breach right in front of us, among dolphins, seals, albatross and Tuna

5.00Fantastic experience, worth every penny!! The boat and crew were incredible and the stunning views and wildlife were perfect. We were lucky enough to be joined by a pod of dolphins playing beside the boat and showing off just for us.
A must do experience

4.00Remember to dress warmly, as the wind is cold and strong. There's so much to see. We had perfect conditions but regardless of conditions I recommend doing this trip.
Fun adventure tour

5.00What a fun tour! Would strongly recommend as this is an awesome way to see Tasman island and the surrounding natural beauty. We were very lucky and saw lots of albatross, two types of dolphins, and two types of seals along with other birds. Our driver expertly managed to drive the boat quickly and safely. The waters are choppy and we were going fast. If you’re prone to motion sickness try to pretreat, but they did give us some ginger before we started. Would recommend if you feel up to the adventure!
