What a trip! A definite must do when in Marlborough. The boat was fantastic, a real piece of luxury for the afternoon. Staff were fantastic and nothing too much trouble, they are locals for generations so know what they are talking about and some interesting stories along the way. Very interesting talk about the mussels I didn't know there was... More

We had the great pleasure to spend a special day with Aussie, first touring 3 different wineries; and then spending the afternoon on a fabulous boat! We thoroughly enjoyed learning about green-lipped mussels and eating them, freshly prepared by the friendly crew. We highly recommend Marlborough Tours! More

Checked the website the night before, it showed positions available on the tour, so drove 50km to Havelock to find the tour was cancelled. Doubly disappointing as it was the best weather for a week. We were not the only ones trying to get on the tour, so the business obviously doesn't value its customers very much. More

We had a great day learning about the green shelled mussel industry with the breathtaking views of the Marlborough Sound. The boat was excellent and the knowledge of the crew such that we came away full of knowledge. I have to say that the mussels cooked fresh on board put one of the local restaurants to shame. More

Our trip with Marlborough Travel was the highlight of our time in the Picton/Blenheim region. After a wonderful morning of wine tasting we thoroughly enjoyed our Greenshell Mussel Cruise. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and the time on the water was gorgeous! You must do this tour! More

Not only do you see the beautiful scenery of the sounds but get bowls full of very fresh mussels!! And a glass of wine. Great informative crew. More
