We really appreciate your feedback, Thank you so much. Kind regards Taupo Sailing Adventures.
The guys have 2 boats, one for sunny weather and the other for winds and possible rainfall. Our day was windy and we were informed that we might not be able to see the carvings, if so, we could choose to reschedule or get refunded. We went for it, and had an amazing time, the crew did all they could to comfort us, free hot drinks, cookies, clean toilets, commentary etc. Best part, we even got to see the carvings! 100% recommend!
Thank you for your sense of adventure and braving the conditions. We're glad we made it to the carvings. Kind regards Taupo Sailing Adventures
Beautiful boat and a really friendly crew, didn't make it to the carvings due to the choppy water but we were warned this may be the case before departure and offered a refund, for the price we paid we were happy to just have a spin on the lake in the Catamaran, beautiful boat and a nice coffee as well!
Sorry we couldn't make it this time but hopefully the next time you visit the weather will be a bit nicer. Thank you for your review. Kind regards Taupo Sailing Adventures
We had great time with the 2 gentlemen. Trip was amazing.
Glad you had an amazing time. Kind regards Taupo Sailing Adventures
Was an awesome trip! Staf were so friendly! Would highly recommend, we were upgraded to the catamaran which was beautiful, got really close to the rock carvings and the swim topped it all off!
Sounds like a perfect trip with great weather. Thank you for your review. Taupo Sailing Adventures.
