The guides at Akaroa Guided Kayak Safari delivered an extraordinary guided kayak experience. I came into Akaroa on a cruise ship, and the tenders were delayed in getting passengers onto shore. Akaroa Guided Kayak Safari handled the delay with no sweat, and our entire tour cohort was safely and efficiently oriented and placed into kayaks. They even had splash guards to keep us dry while in the kayaks. I'd never previously used a kayak with a rudder, which made steering a breeze.
As for the tour itself, the Akaroa bay is breathtaking, and the kayak was probably the best way to see all the features along the coast. Our guide oriented us to the geological features, and I left with a real feel for the gorgeousness of the coastline along Akaroa. We even stopped for a swim and snack at a semi-private beach. One of the guides took photos, and emailed them to us at no additional cost, and the photographs did a wonderful job of capturing the experience - better than I would have done myself!
I'm so glad I was able to do this tour, and recommend it for everyone coming into Akaroa. read more
