Customer Reviews
Excellent day out!!! Highly recommend. If you haven't been, your doing yourself a disservice!!! Ill be flying from the mainland to GBI just to go out with these guys.... 😎👌
We were a large group of friends first time on the island. Willam and ebony were fantastic skippers and happy to share there knowledge and passion of great barrier. Willam was professional as our skipper but relaxed which made for the perfect day on the water. Lunch was absolutely delicious at the marine education centre...and the carrot cake is a winner too. Steve at glenfern bird sanctuary was a top bloke sharing his enthusiasm and explaining all the hard work that him and his team do, well worth the add on to your trip.Thanks team for making our day exploring a memorable experience.
I would highly recommend this experience when you first get to Great Barrier Island. Firstly, it is a great way to get a sense of the island and topography and you will see dolphins and gannets. Secondly, Chris is the best skipper ever and a superb baker of amazing carrot cake. He is knowlegeable about the area, really friendly and made the day fabulous. In addition, he waited for me as my flight was delayed! Do not miss this!
