Top Tour

War echt eine super Tour. Es hat geregnete und man konnte so viele Wasserfälle sehen. Auch Delfine haben das Boot kurz begleitet. Sehr freundliche Crew, konnte man alles Fragen und haben Fotos gemacht vor/unter dem Stirling Wasserfall.

Nature Cruise

Die Fahrt war wie erwartet gut und wir sind relativ nah an den größten der Wasserfälle heran gefahren. Der Kaffee und Tee an Bord war nicht schlecht und alles im allem war es trotz schlechtem Wetter eine nette Tour auch wegen des nicht allzu großen Bootes. Das Team war super nett und wir konnten unser Ticket sogar kostenlos auf den nächsten Tag legen!

Überbewertet und überlaufen

Der Ort und die Bootstour sind leider überbewertet und überlaufen. Man muss 10$ pro Stunde für den Parkplatz zahlen, obwohl wahrscheinlich fast jeder, der hier parkt, bereits für eine teure Bootstour gezahlt hat. So gut wie alles an Board muss extra bezahlt werden. Es gäbe ein Buffet, das auch sehr gut aussieht, aber der Preis dafür ist richtig frech. Es kommt einem leider vor wie Massenabfertigung, da einfach viel zu viele Leute dort sind und einem nicht wirklich was spannendes geboten wird Die Landschaft rechtfertigt die Abzocke auch nicht. Es gibt eindeutig schönere Orte hier in NZ, die weniger oder gar nichts kosten. Alles in allem leider Zeit- und Geldverschwendung!
