Hi Sarah, Thank you for review, it is great to hear you've enjoyed all of our cute animals. The ride over can be impressive, but our guides are expert on driving on it to keep everyone safe ^-^ All the best. Kindly, Kevin.

Little Penguins of Potahu
Very informative evening learning about NZ ecology as well as the penguins. Our guide, Caitlyn (I think, so sorry if incorrect) was lovely, very passionate about her country and the flora and fauna. A highly intelligent young lady. Our experience seeing the Little Penguins in their natural environment was amazing with the added bonus of seeing young seal pups playing on the shore.

A 'must do'
We had the best time on this tour. The passion and enthusiasm of our guide Joey was obvious and she was a mine of information. Being able to see the penguins in their nesting boxes (and some babies) was awesome and to top it off they came a shore just below us so we had a birdseye view. Highly rate this tour a 'must do' on a trip to Akaroa. While walking to the hideout we found a young shag that had fallen out of the nest, Joey took it home (along with fish for it's dinner) Do hope it survived it's ordeal.

Hi Sue, Thank you so very much for your comment. Being a daughter of Shireen and Francis who started the conservation work she has been here since the very beginning and has indeed a wealth of knowledge. We're very happy that you enjoyed yourselves and wish you all the best. Kindly, Kevin.

Penguins-and sheep.
This trip is fabulous! So pleased I went on it. Ben our guide was SO knowledgeable, and very good at opening and closing gates, lol. Seriously he had so much information about the whole area. We fed a variety of little sheep first, amazing colours. Then the penguin tour, saw a few in their little hides, and more on the sea slowly making their way in. All was so interesting, yet peaceful as well. I loved the remoteness, and waves gently breaking. I thoroughly recommend this experience. Just go!

Hi Raewyn, Thank you so very much for your great review. We do get very good at opening those 3 gates: in and out and in out ^-^ We're glad to hear you've thoroughly enjoyed yourself and all of what the bay has to offer. We wish you all the best. Kevin.

Great Experience
We enjoyed the tour a lot! Not only did we feed lovely lambs, but we saw many penguins in the water and several in their nesting homes. Especially in the nesting homes, we could see the penguins very closely! We got much information and can definitely recommend this tour!

Penguins 🐧
This was a great tour. The ride in is perhaps not for the nervous road users but once there the thrill of lamb cuddles and penguin spotting makes you forget. Our guide was very knowledgeable.
