The Cream Trip is one of the best excursions my husband and I have ever done. Initially it may seem expensive but it is well worthwhile. It is well organised from the beginning and the crew are keen that everyone enjoys themselves. I chose to 'Swim with the Dolphins' It was an experience of a lifetime. The ride in the... More

Best way to see The Bay of Islands! Very well organized, leisurely cruise, Yummy smorgasbord style dinner and breakfast. This particular cruise went further out, due to scuba divers on board being dropped off to do a dive on a sunken ship. While they were doing that, we were taken to one of the islands for snorkeling or walking -... More

We did The Cream Trip as it was a comprehensive tour of the Bay of Islands. The Hole in the Rock was certainly a highlight. We saw lots of dolphins but could not swim with them in the morning as they had a baby dolphin in the pod. We saw some more in the afternoon and some people hopped in... More

We had the best day! We celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary by seeing the hole in the rock, swimming with wild dolphins in the bay (definitely the highlight!) and then we had lunch and explored Russel for the rest of the afternoon. The staff on the cruise were really professional and did a great job with helping us make the... More

We did the overnight cruise in January and loved it but thought it was too short. So we did the two nighter in April and it was awesome. Still didn't want to get off, but was sooo much fun. The food was the same both days/nights, and it felt like we were getting leftovers, but still good food and plenty... More

My husband and I went on the overnight cruise with another couple 2 weeks ago. The staff were friendly, rooms simple but all you require the BIG PROBLEM WAS THE NOISE. We had a room next to the generator with our bedhead up against it so had NOISE ++ AND VIBRATIONS++ all night long!!! Therefore we had no sleep at... More

I made several tours with Fullers and everything was excellent: Timing, staff, sightseeing spots, Pick-up-Service.. I enjoyed every moment. I did the cream trip (unfortunately bad weather), the Cape Reinga Tour, The tour to the TANE MAHUTA and the Wairere Boulders- and in Auckland I visited Rangitoto Island with Fullers. Thank you for several interesting, comfortable trips with best service... More

The weather report on the night before our overnight cruise was for galeforce winds and 5 metre swells so we figured the cruise would be cancelled.We found ,however that they go rain, hail or shine.Obviously a cancellation means a refund and they prefer to keep the money in the coffers, While the boat was beautiful, meals good and staff obliging,...

I went on a trip with Great Sights in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand. It was such a treat as from the time we boarded the boat the staff were pleasant, professional and keen to make sure we all enjoyed the trip. The cruise was interrupted initially by meeting a huge pod of dolphins who spent ages entertaining... More
