Beautiful views
I would’ve given 5 reviews but I felt it was very hard to enjoy the scenic as the speaker was very loud you couldn’t even talk yourself and wearing mask was just not a comfortable experience.
From Scenic Māori Rock Carving Cruise - Chris Jolly Outdoors
Thank you for your comments, we'll check out the speakers but I'm sorry under current restrictions we cannot alter the mask rules. Come back again and enjoy a 5 star experience when we don't have to wear them.

A Beautiful Experience
The cruise was absolutely beautiful! It was a smooth ride and I loved how the carving was explained, it’s nice to know the story behind what you’re seeing. The views in each direction as we were heading to the Maori carving was very nice, just in awe of God’s beautiful creation. So thank you for letting us see more than what was offered. More of Gods Art work. Thank you for the complimentary coffee and muffin too. So generous. God bless 🙏🏼
From Scenic Māori Rock Carving Cruise - Chris Jolly Outdoors
Wonderful comments thank you! We really appreciate you taking the time.
