Seal kayaking are tops - This was a highlight of your South Island adventure. The team at seal kayaking are all fabulous. Logan as our guide was tops, knew his stuff and made us feel very well taken care of, this made learning about the history of the area, seals and dolphins extraordinary, a very skilled guide. Levi the business owner sets the tone for everyone's experience, relaxed, professional and Hannah's a gem loved the coffee and ice cream. Thanks team- we have recommended this experience to all we met on our travels and will continue to do so. We wish you all a prosperous and fun filled future. Thankyou

Wonderful Experience with Spectacular Scenery! - Our guides were super friendly and helpful. The tour felt relaxed, and we especially loved the peddle kayaks for inexperienced kayakers, as they were so much easier than paddling with an oar. You stay dry, seats were comfy, and hands free to take photos. Everything was great!

Beautiful Sunset Trip - This was our second trip with Seal Kayak and it was just as amazing as the first time! Pedaling instead of paddling is wonderful. The guides are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and you can't ask for a nicer area to explore.

Relaxing and fun! - It was a wonderful experience to see the sun setting while doing the paddle kayak, watching the seals etc. Both of our guides were VERY experienced and know what they were doing. Highly reccomended whenever you plan a visit to this place. Shame that we lost a pair of Raybans there :(

A great activity to add to your NZ visit - This was a great excursion. We saw seals, dolphins and even a penguin but I understand that you don't always see those. Our guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and it was a great experience. These small group activities are the best - you see and learn the most. This would be a great family activity.

Very special experience with wonderful guides. - A definite holiday highlight. To be out on the sea as the sun sets was magical. Pedalled canoes were really easy to operate and steer. Guides were highly competent and very friendly.
