Hi Sarah, Thank you for review, it is great to hear you've enjoyed all of our cute animals. The ride over can be impressive, but our guides are expert on driving on it to keep everyone safe ^-^ All the best. Kindly, Kevin.

Little Penguins of Potahu
Very informative evening learning about NZ ecology as well as the penguins. Our guide, Caitlyn (I think, so sorry if incorrect) was lovely, very passionate about her country and the flora and fauna. A highly intelligent young lady. Our experience seeing the Little Penguins in their natural environment was amazing with the added bonus of seeing young seal pups playing on the shore.

A 'must do'
We had the best time on this tour. The passion and enthusiasm of our guide Joey was obvious and she was a mine of information. Being able to see the penguins in their nesting boxes (and some babies) was awesome and to top it off they came a shore just below us so we had a birdseye view. Highly rate this tour a 'must do' on a trip to Akaroa. While walking to the hideout we found a young shag that had fallen out of the nest, Joey took it home (along with fish for it's dinner) Do hope it survived it's ordeal.

Hi Sue, Thank you so very much for your comment. Being a daughter of Shireen and Francis who started the conservation work she has been here since the very beginning and has indeed a wealth of knowledge. We're very happy that you enjoyed yourselves and wish you all the best. Kindly, Kevin.

Incredible experience
This tour is a must for any nature lovers travelling through Christchurch. The evening was a great adventure with amazing views and a funny, friendly, and knowledgeable tour guide. Best of all we were able to see so many native animals in the wild with the provided equipment, as well as getting up close to see the little penguins in their nesting boxes.

Fantastic experience seeing blue penguins!
A brilliant tour with Ben who was so knowledgeable about the penguins. His love for the area was infectious and he shared lots of info about Akaroa too which was great. We saw some penguins in man-made burrows, then saw a raft of penguins swimming in from the sea just before the sun started to go down. Well worth it if you want to see penguins - it was a brilliant experience.

Hi there, Thank you very much for having taken the time this very nice review. So glad to hear Ben's passion was contagious, we love to hear this. We hope the rest of your holidays went well. Kindly, Kevin.

Penguins 🐧
This was a great tour. The ride in is perhaps not for the nervous road users but once there the thrill of lamb cuddles and penguin spotting makes you forget. Our guide was very knowledgeable.
