Awesome catamaran cruise - A must do in Whitianga or Coromandel. Matt, Matt, and Casey were amazing hosts. We saw awesome views of the coast, and Matt and Casey gave a perfect amount of narration, but did not blather on. Very polite and service oriented.

Outstanding afternoon - Outstanding trip. Hamish and Rebecca were fantastic hosts making all of us feeling total welcome and relaxed. The kids haven’t stopped talking about it and are now trying to convince us to buy a boat (LOL). Highly recommend for a relaxing cruise and spectacular views. Also, snorkelling with the fish was amazing.
