Grandiose et immanquable

La plus belle balade en bateau de notre vie ! Les paysages sont grandioses, on se sent minuscules face à l'immensité qui nous entoure. On est ravis d'avoir choisi mitre peak cruise, un petit bateau, qui nous a approchés des otaries, des pingouins et des cascades. La balade de 8h50 est idéale car il n'y a encore personne et la faune est plus visible. Bref, un immanquable en NZ !!

Excellente croisière

Super expérience, les explications tout au long du voyage sont supers, le paysage est magnifique Nombre restreints de personnes sur le bateau, ce qui rend la croisière plus familiale

Organisation et accueil au top

Le vrai plus de cette croisière a été l'équipage qui a partagé ave nous son amour des lieux et de la nature : approche en douceur des cascades et des otaries, du temps pour observer les dauphins, etc. De point de vue pratique, depuis la réservation jusqu'à la montée sur le bateau, tout a été très simple.
