Seal Coast Safari

Awesome activity to do while in Wellington. Thanks for a great tour Kent. The ride was bumpy enough to be a bit exciting but still perfectly safe. Amazing views and it was amazing to get up close and personal with the wildlife. Highly recommended!

Awesome 4WD experience in Wellington. We went on a typical windy day, but the whole trip wad very exiting and wholesome, a very different from normal urban big city.

Best excursion - ever!--One of the best excursions I’ve ever been on.--We were lucky to have one of the owners as our guide.--He was excellent all around: personable, considerate, knowledge, skillful driver.--It was rainy and windy, but still quite enjoyable.--Provided hot beverage and pastries.--Saw lots of seals.--Drove around the area and saw some amazing vistas.

We were fortunate enough to have Kent as our guide and only six passengers from our cruise ship. We had the most wonderful day with plenty of education from Kent. We fed stunning deer enroute which was not mentioned in the plan but was obviously a lovely bonus. We then got up close and personal with the seals languishing in the beaches. The weather was blustery but lovely and warm and I couldn't recommend this tour more highly.

A very enjoable drive round hills and coastland local to Wellington. Our driver Kent was very knowledgeable and happy to chat about all aspects of the area. The terrain was varied and Kent drove through it all with fun and expertise. Some lovely views from the top and Seals to meet at the bottom. A special treat was hand feeding the Deer. Coffee and muffins on the beach were very welcome.

This was one of our favourite excursions in wellington and it was all down to our wonderful guide Kent who was so informative and knowledgeable. The journey in the 4x4 was exciting and we learnt a lot about the local area then the seals were a joy to see! We saw so many just relaxing on the beach and the journey back was just as thrilling in the 4x4. I can't recommend this trip enough it is so worth it! Thanks so much Kent!

SHOULDN'T be missed!!! My FAVORITE excursion in Wellington!! The southern coast of Wellington is beautiful and difficult to access without the right vehicle. We LOVED our Seal Coast Safari trip - truly unforgettable! I did the trip with my 4 small children (ages 2 to 9) and they loved it. We saw heaps and heaps of seals - one stubborn seal wouldn't leave his cosy spot on the sandy trail and so we had to move around him - much to the delight of my kiddos! Gorgeous views from Wellington south coast - to include views of snow-capped south island mountains. The guide was extremely informative and good with the kiddos. We were very thankful for the muffins and drinks. My son LOVED scouring the beach for shells. Fun also to come off the coastline and ascend to see the deer and goats and ducks. Our guide came prepared with snacks to feed a few on the animals. Really unforgettable - thank you!!!!!

We took relatives from Brisbane and we all thought it was the best trip we have done around Wellington.The weather was a little squally and windy but we saw plenty of seals and amazing wild scenery. Kent was a most knowledgeable and helpful tour guide.

After a conference, I decided to stay extra days in Wellington and did the 4WD Seal Coast Safari this morning. The whole journey was fun and Hillary provided useful commentary along the way. We saw seals, shags, and all sorts of animal. I would recommend this to a visitor to Wellington who may not have a lot of time and want to visit other places beyond the city centre!

Great tour and well worth it. It was fun to see a completely different part of the island after staying in the city. Driving over rocks and sand was a blast! We didn't really go to see seals, but they were fun. Not a whole lot of them, but I guess it was their off-season. Also, the gourmet muffin was by far the best I have ever had!
