Reviews: Kaikoura 1-day tour with Christchurch round-trip, optional whale watching cruise, swimming with dolphins and albatross encounter

The fish and chips included in the itinerary were absolutely delicious—the best fish and chips I've ever had! Unfortunately, we weren't lucky enough to see a whale flip over during whale watching, but we did see countless dolphins, which was truly spectacular! The tour included many scenic stops and views, making the whole trip very enjoyable and relaxing!
We caught lobsters and some fish fillets (the captain will process the fish and distribute them to each family). Because I get seasick, my fishing experience wasn't great, but my travel companions who don't get seasick had a blast!

Absolutely fantastic! Was told average was 1-2 whale sightings before I confirmed the activity/rescheduled… but we saw 5+! And loads of dolphins. The commentator was amazing, he was funny and knowledgable about what we were seeing. The other staff on the boat were also great. It was busy but didn’t feel too crowded. worth every $.
