Franz Josef Glacier Guides
Great experience!
DO IT!
The half-day was plenty, but it would have been nice to be able to move a little faster, so we could have seen even more. Our guide was very knowledgeable and quite entertaining. I would absolutely recommend this! Especially if the glacier hot pools are included/discounted...worth it!

Whale Watch Kaikoura
While it seems a bit wasteful to take a boat on a 2-hour round trip journey to see 1 whale, it was still awesome!
It's not everyday you get to see a sperm whale after all.
I would like to say thank you to the staff at the whale watching base for keeping us safe. When 2 of the other tourists followed us around taking pictures of us, we informed the staff, and they gave us a safe place to sit while the men waited for us outside. They also offered us rides to wherever we needed to go. I hope the staff there knows how AWESOME their little bit of help was in keeping us safe on our journey. Thank you!
Kia Ora Maggie, thank you for your kind words. We are so glad to hear that you had a great time viewing a sperm whale (aren't they a magnificent creature?), and that you were well looked after during you time with us. We hope your time in NZ was memorable and that you managed to get some great photos to show the family back home. Thanks again.

I would say this trip was in the Top 3 of our whole trip.
Estelle & Dan were awesome! The glow worm experience was surreal. What a peaceful, enjoyable, and educational journey! AND they sent us pictures! Thank you so much!
