Hi there T34Hda. Thank you for writing such and awesome review! Its clear you really enjoyed your day with me which I am totally thrilled to hear. But I just noticed you have selected a 1 out of 5 rating... was this a mistake? If you did enjoy the tour, it would mean a lot to us if you could change your rating to higher number? This really makes a difference to our ranking and therefore visibility on Tripadvisor. Once again though, I really do appreciate your lovely message and positive feedback. Cheers, Kim

Kim was our guide for the day, he was fun and informative. We had a quick City tour. Then on to the nature side of things. Awesome time at the Royal Albatross Centre. Finishing off with the penguin place. Highly recommend this tour.
