7) Is the trip suitable for children?
- We are a family friendly company -
- Children of all ages will truly enjoy our tours. Our boat "Delphinus" contains kids colouring ins, toys, books and a DVD players which screens educational wildlife movies. We offer the use of a Macpac child backpack carrier for free. The walk on Motuara Island is a gradual upward ascent in some parts, so most children (or parents carrying children) may not make it to the lookout at the very top. Please also remember that you need to be responsbile for your children.
- For our Dolphin Swimming/Viewing Tour, children between the age of 8-12years may swim with the Dolphins if they are competent swimers and confortable in the water. However it is as the destresion of the skipper and subject to sea conditions on the day.
