Incredible! - Incredible! Our wonderful guide Owen took 3 of my family (and maybe 14 others) out on the 10am tour (New Years day!) - we were SO lucky! A pod of dolphins were literally swimming in & amongst the boats! I know this is never guaranteed. Fantastic views. Wonderful guide support. Easy paddling. We were allowed to swim at one point. Mother Nature blessed us with the dolphins & a few penguins paddling by too. BEST first day of 2025 !!! Thank you x

Private tour! - I was alone during the day and booked the appointment. Thought I'd join a group, but I got a private tour! Gustavo the guide knew a lot to tell and was easily accessible via app prior to the trip. Seen dolphins, seals and a lost penguin. Very rewarding!
