Wonderful tour and meaningful conservation work
The tour was an amazing experience, I loved every moment of it! It’a a great way to get to know this wonderful area and its ecosystem. Our guide was super knowledgeable and passionate, and made everything really interesting. I strongly recommend it, also as a way to support the Kororā-white-flippered penguin conservation work of Pohatu Penguins.
