Very long day but well worth it! Seas were a little choppy on the boat, so if you are prone to sea sickness or aren’t sure take motion sickness meds before or use a patch. Our driver guide Karthik was amazing and knows so much about the country and history! I highly recommend this tour!!!!!

Support a Family Business - Great way to see the Bay of Island
What a day ! Even though it was long, it is well worth it. If you read the description of the tour, it is what you get (except we didn't see whales !! but that's ok). The communication of change of pick up address was not a problem. Karthik was a great tour guide on our drive up to the Bay of Islands, his knowledge of Auckland and surrounding area was exceptional and his interest in the science was really interesting and was always checking that we were ok. The transport car (van) was very comfortable - enough so, I may of dozed off !!! Karthik made sure we got on our 3hr + boat cruise/tour and seeing the dolphin's at play was definitely a highlight. All in all a great day and this is a family run business and good to support the little guys instead of the big commercial companies. Highly recommend if you have limited time in Auckland and want to see the Bay of Islands.
