Highlights

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 the 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.


With this day tour to Kaikoura, you will be encouraged to relax! Kaikoura is surfer’s paradise and home to an abundance of wildlife which you will encounter as we near this town. The surrounding scenery of breathtaking bright blue Pacific Ocean in contrast with the Kaikoura Ranges allows you to take those Instagram worthy photos and experience a region like no other. With this day you will be able to spend it with another type of local – Kaikoura’s Dusky Dolphins

Itinerary

  • Waipara

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    This journey can’t be done without a little bit of… WINE. While passing through beautiful, lush green countryside, vineyards, and farms! The Waipara region is one of New Zealand’s premier wine regions and our first stop. – Here you will have the opportunity to taste a selection of wine from a locally owned and operated vineyard before we head towards the coastal town of Kaikoura. Don’t worry if wine isn’t your thing, you can substitute wine for beer!
  • Cheviot

    10 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    As we continue with our day, we make our way to Cheviot. Cheviot iis a hidden treasure and one of New Zealand’s largest coastal routes. We will be stopping here to refuel and stretch our legs. Once you have had a bit of a break, we continue passing through the beautiful Hundalee hill. You will know we are close as you keep an eye out for surfers and local wildlife – you may even spot a few seals. As we weave our way through this scenic road, we are greeted by stunning panorama views.
  • Kaikoura

    4 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    As we approach Kaikoura we will weave down the costal road. This stretch of road has to be the most scenic costal road in New Zealand. Keep an eye out for wild life and surfers! We will grab some lunch before dropping you off for your Dolphin Encounter "The opportunity to join the tour as a watcher provides spectacular viewing of these acrobatic and energised dolphins. Their exhilerating displays of jumps, leaps, tail slapping and somersaults provide the most incredible dolphin show on earth! Watchers and swimmers travel on the same boat, so if some of you want to watch and some of you want to swim this is not a problem as you will still be together. It's fascinating to witness the interaction between swimmers and wild dolphins from above the water too. Our boats are specifically built with optimum viewing in mind and have upstairs decks as well as walk around bows to enable you to capture perfect images of your experience."
  • Christchurch
