About

Explore Akaroa from the water on a small-group day tour from Christchurch, capped at eight guests. Your guide collects you from your hotel, so you never need to drive. You take the scenic crater-rim route over Banks Peninsula, with a stop at a local cheese maker, then paddle the sheltered volcanic harbour by guided sea kayak, gliding past cliffs, sea caves and resting fur seals, often among seabirds and rare Hector's dolphins; stable kayaks and full gear make it achievable with moderate fitness. Prefer to stay on land? Choose a guided e-bike instead. A cafe lunch is included. Includes complimentary hotel pickup and drop-off and an expert guide. Maximum eight guests.
