The guide was amazing! I forgot his name...i even asked twice... he made our ride very pleasant and he was very professional. Taking photos for us and providing hot beverages and muffins. Teaching us tips with how to ride on the waves etc. I would highly recommend if you are active, to do the kayak to see the maori carving rock instead of boating, it made a lasting impression and it was super fun! Rode 20th January @1:30pm.(as i cannot remember the guides name sorry, you were amazing :D )

It was absolutely hassle free and my guests were very impressed! They were on time, so kind and helpful.
