Reviews of Cruise to the Hole in the Rock

Brilliant trip! Fantastic, informative guides. Stunning scenery. An absolutely memorable experience! Great value for money. Highly recommend!

Great experience with the cruise, can see dolphins 🐬 and go through the hole

Cruise company were great and the views were amazing. Take sea legs or tripease if you have any tendency towards sea sickness as the waters can get quite choppy (especially if they go out to look for dolphins). Island stopover was good and if you have time to extend then I would highly recommend .

My family and I loved the cruise to the Hole in the Rock and we got too see dolphins and Ocra in their natural habitat. Sadly my children were not well as of sea sickness but overall the experience was amazing Thank You to Fullers Great Sights, Paihia

A great way to spend a few hours and enjoy the cruise. The bonus was the dolphins which we encountered...magic any time. The crew were great and professional

We were fortunate that the dolphins were feeling active and they had a new calf to there pod. Our captain was knowledgeable and funny. Staff were helpful aswell. Quite a few people getting sea sick but the staff were right there to help them through it

The weather was stormy, but I love the choppy sea, the driving wind and rain. The captain was very knowledgeable about his boat and craft, and ensured that both his crew and passengers were safe throughout the trip on the 20th of August 2019. His knowledge about each island and the ancient maritime laws, local myths and legends about the Maori people was fascinating. Of course the weather made it impossible to make it out to the whole in the rock, but we did find the pod of dolphins in a rough and stormy patch. Just as we drifted into the area where we could watch the dolphins the weather cleared and we were able to take some photos and then back to shore.

Great cruise experience with great sights. Managed to see whale, some dolphins and go through the hole.

A truly amazing experience. We went as a family of 6 and all of us loved it (inc 3 teenage boys). 4/6 of us got pretty queasy but standing out on the front of the boat in the breeze really helped. Views were unbelievable. Saw many dolphins and the skipper stopped the boat so we could enjoy them. Good sized boat, snacks available to purchase, coffee ordinary haha. About 100 people on board? Staff excellent and helpful especially in rough conditions. Highly recommended. Well worth the price.

Amazing experience. My kids loved it even though it was a bit choppy. Dolphins put on a great show. Everyone should do this. Thanks to the great crew too.

Our whole family enjoyed the ride! We saw dolphins and seals and the whole ride was scenic. Just know that you don't always get to go through the hole only if the weather is permitting. Also you don't always get to swim with the dolphins if you pay to do so as it depends on a number of factors.

Amazing experience. Good facilities by Cruise staff. Food also very delicious at cafe.

Nice trip. Highly recommended. Just got seasick

Very beautiful and heavy waves nice place great experience

We did the day trip out called The Cream Trip .highly recommended..you go around the 15 islands and are told the history of each .have lunch at Urupukapuka island either taking your own or enjoying from cafe and enjoying a cold one. Before going back on board you can walk to look out or have swim .Continue on around the remainder of island checking out at all times for dolphins or whales.. Finish the most enjoyable day with a swim on the nett booming from side of boat

Nice cruise to the hole in the rock near paihia. Also saw dolphins on the cruise! Boats go inside the hole whenever weather permits. Is an awesome experience with dolphins swimming close-by. Lighthouse can be seen while cruising. Some cruises also drop you at an island for an hour to enjoy the beach.

It helps if the weather's nice. Saw dolphins which was what we paid for. The crew were helpful and informative. Highly recommend you take the cruise

Awesome. When you pick the date to the travel make sure its a sunny day . A sunny day can only provide you with the clear view and the best experience. The cruise is best enjoyed in a big boat , where u can have a couple of beer and walk around and sit and enjoy . The sail is nothing extraordinary, it just goes through the hole in the rock . So don’t get overexcited and don’t put your expectations high. The sail is only for nearly two hours. They will drop you in the island thereafter. So its just a usual sail going through a hole in rock , exploring a bit of the island and having some beer . Of course, there are some good sceneries to take . Best wishes for the trip.

With fullers great sights-'Hole in the rock dolphin cruise' had a really great time. Wheel chair accessible to the cruise and in the cruise(downstairs unit). Great commentary, super staff in the cruise. with an awesome weather on the day we went its Worth the money.

Wonderful 3 hours cruise.
