Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    On a beautiful day, we paddled through the Queen Charlotte Sound from Lochmara Lodge. Our guides Helen & Kayla shepherded our group with skill & patience. Helen shared much about the area’s history & Māori tales. As we were about done, Kayla talked to us about Project Nest Egg that’s all about protecting kiwi on one of the points.
    A great experience!

    We did the drop off at Resolution Bay then walked to Furneaux Lodge. The boat ride was excellent - on the way out we got a commentary from the skipper and he was happy to chat too. The ride was fairly long but gave good chance to enjoy the scenery and learn something about the area. On the way back there wasn't any commentary (that I could hear anyway -we were outside on deck) but the weather was good and the views were just incredible.

    Prompt service. I would definitely do it again.

    The team at New Zealand Walks helped put together a fantastic experience. Communication was great and questions/responses were quickly answered. Accommodation offerings were suitable for night before, and everything went exactly as planned. Even quick to sort out my lack of transportation from Blenheim airport to Picton, completely my fault - when I failed to request the service offered.

    Exhilarating experience. Man and wife team, lovely people, easy to deal with. The ski’s were easy to use and we had a ball out in the sounds. Highly recommended.

    Stuart (the skipper) was fantastic. Flexible and knowledgeable about the area he tailored the day to suit our group. The 'snack' between dives kept on coming and were very much appreciated by the divers
