    We enjoyed our cruise with ‘Beachcomber Cruise’ very much. The boat trip from Picton to Ship Cove was very informative and pleasant. The cruise from Punga Cove to Picton was speedy and absolutely on time. Thank you for a great service in the Marlborough Sounds. HeiWe

    Skipper provided a very interesting commentary. We walked from Ship Bay to Furneaux Lodge. Only snag is there is not too much to see for a lot of the walk due to the bush. But you do get to see lots of wekas. Good quick boat ride both ways and friendly staff.

    This was a great trip from Picton to Ships Cove in the beautiful Marlborough Sounds. Jason, our skipper, gave an excellent commentary during our one hour ride to our destination. The boat was clean, on time, instructions were clear and everyone we were involved with at beachcomber was polite and helpful Our return journey was just as good Thanks Beachcomber!

    8 of us from Australia completed the Queen Charlotte Track with Wilderness Guides in Picton. We chose the upgraded 5 day trip with a rest day, which we used to kayak for a day. Wilderness Guides were well organised and good communicators when booking for a trip for 8 people and they were responsive to our needs. The walk was scenic including lovely tasteful accommodation along the way in picturesque settings.
