Karen - Simply the Best
Our guide Karen was highly knowledgible & very entertaining. She was constantly aware of the members in her group & ensured everyone got to see the bird or plant or other natural feature that she was pointing out. Her "bird calls" often got responses from her feathered friends.
A great & memorable tour.

Beautiful Patersons Inlet and great wildlife encounter
Great trip exploring the bays in Paterson inlet and then onto Ulva island - from close ups with albatross flying around the boat, to spotting tieke, yellowheads, robins, kakariki on the island...as well as a female sealion seeing us off her beach! Good guides, comfortable boat.
