Reviews: Christchurch Departure Kaikoura Day Tour with Optional Whale Watching Cruise, Kayaking Experience, and Dolphin Viewing
Guest User2025-12-28
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!
Reviews: Kaikoura: Whale Watching Cruise

Unfortunately, our booked tour was cancelled due to high winds, something we only found out about at the last minute. We then put ourselves on the waiting list for the next day – and that worked out. We had an incredible tour, with three whales, a family of orcas, and dolphins. The crew was fantastic! 👍
Reviews: Kaikōura: Zipline and Native Forest Adventure Trip
Guest User2026-03-02
Kaikōura Zipline was an excellent day! The scenery was absolutely stunning and the placement of the ziplines took full advantage of each view. The trip up the mountain in an old vehicle was bumpy, but fun and the guides were very informative about the natural features and history of the areas we passed through. The ziplines themselves were arranged to travel down the mountain in 5 sections, with a walk between each zipline. The guides made my first zipline experience feel safe but exhilarating! I would highly recommend this experience.
