Overview

Kaikoura – A small coastal town overlooked by many, but a “must-see” location in New Zealand. With panorama views of turquoise water and snowcapped mountains, this is one place that spells serenity. Take the tour with one of our friendly and knowledgeable guides from Garden City to where the mountains meet the sea. Kaikoura is the best place to experience marine life encounters, coastal walks, and fantastic local food.

Kaikoura is a surfer’s paradise and home to an abundance of wildlife which you will encounter as we near this town. The surrounding scenery of the breathtaking bright blue Pacific Ocean is in contrast with the Kaikoura Ranges.

The main attraction of this tour is the whale watch experience.

” Whale Watch is New Zealand's only vessel-based whale watching company offering an exciting up-close encounter with the world's largest toothed predator the Giant Sperm Whale in their natural environment at all times of the year
