Highly recommend. The business owner (driver of the boat) was super friendly and gave some great info and insight on Māori culture and NZ. He also gave great recommendations. Must book!!!

We had the best experience with Ash . He was very knowledgeable of the region and coastline and we explored it all . A lovely small group so Ash could take us to some hidden gems that were on on a scheduled route.

Ash was amazing. Took us into so many caves. Explained a lot about the different rock/volcanic rock formations and fault lines. He was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Absolutely epic. We have always gone by car or hiking and enjoyed beautiful sights but, seeing the stunning coastline from the boat was next Level. The caves are magnificent and the water was so clear. I will definitely do more boat trips in future.

This 2.5 hour tour was a highlight of our time in Whitianga. Being in a smaller boat with a smaller group allows you to get up close (and drive into) the caves. Ash, the guide / owner was incredible and provided so much interesting information. So much better than the bigger boat tours in town. Try to go at high tide for beat cave access.

This trip is absolutely awesome and Ash was a fantastic guide. The smaller boat provided a very family like atmosphere and can get into caves other boats can’t. Highly recommended.

This is was one of the highlights of our two week trip to NZ. Ash could not have been friendlier and took us to the most spectacular caves and coves - it truly was a magical experience. Ash even dove in to the water and brought out sea urchins and then showed us how to eat them right there and then. I cannot recommend this tour enough - it really was such a special day
