Rakiura / Stewart Island Ferry
Expensive ferry, but it is the only one.
Bumpy ride, be aware of the sea sickness. Very nice employees though, helped us and they were very good with our daughter who became seasick.

Kaikoura Helicopters World of Whales
Small helicopters with perfect view.
Not very expensive. The skilled pilots knew also a lot about the whales and the environment. Saw two sperm whales.

Mitre Peak Cruises
Small cruise company with small ships.
They go further into the Sound than other companies and give good information about wildlife and nature.

Key Summit Track
Very nice walk, part of the Routeburn Track.
The path is well prepared. Of course the path goes up for a long time but the view rewards the effort.
