    The day was wonderful - from the welcoming driver: Marty: to all aspects of the tour. Marty shared interesting and informative commentary during the trip. He also provided very clear instructions for access and egress at all destinations. He remained close by at all venues to assist with questions from the group. The small group enabled people to meet with each other extending camaraderie. All personnel within each venue were friendly and helpful. A highly recommended experience.

    Loved the whole experience. The staff and facilities are awesome, reasonably priced souvenirs and the penguin experience very special indeed. I particularly liked the walk along the boardwalk which gave you very close views of the penguins heading home. Beautiful also watching the sunset before putting the camera away and just enjoying the night.

    Amazing tour with Max! Max was an incredible guide today. His explanations were perfectly balanced, informative but never overwhelming. He has a very natural and easygoing attitude, which made the whole day completely stress-free. I’m very satisfied and highly recommend him!
