    disappointing as we never went close to Penguin Island, at the moment it is not part of the tour, so people should be made aware of this.

    We packed in to have trip n land on penguin island so we we can spend the day, but then on the counter we were told it’s not stopping because of too much sand on there so we were made round in the sea. Just wasted our whole day should have been informed earlier

    We didn’t spot a single dolphin nor a penguin, which was a great turn off. While talking to the tour guide, we were told its sheer luck to be able to spot them in the wild. Also, read the same on the tour itinerary but tried our luck. It was a nice cruise though and we spot birds on the bird island and all male sea lion sleeping. The view was spectacular but I wouldn’t recommend this tour since sighting of the wildlife are super low.

    The experience is worth every cent! The enthusiasm of the skipper and the young female guide was infectious. Both did a wonderful job.

    My kids absolutely loved the boat. They were so stoked about going on one and we're more excited when they got to see everything on the island including the sea lions. The birds and they learnt a lot from the crew. Georgia and Brad were absolutely amazing and very friendly and kept answering my children's questions. Ashton who we dealt with in the kiosk was amazing and helped my children pick their gifts for the day overall a very very good experience and we will be back for a second trip thanks again everybody.

    Great wildlife cruise around the islands with a knowledgeable crew, who were very approachable and helpful. They wanted to ensure everyone on board had the best experience possible.
