A surface cruise first, feeding albatrosses so that they were almost within touching distance (not just 1 or 2 but about 50!) plus lots of other birds. Then we were transferred to a semisub, where downstairs the hull had windows for us to watch the fish and other marine life from below the waves. We were both glad this part only lasted about half an hour, as the motion was rather weird! But a very good crew, and a thoroughly recommended trip.

Reviewed 27 December 2013

An unforgettable cruise around Paterson Inlet from Oban and around Iona past derelict remains of whaling history that landed us on Ulva where native bush and animals are regenerating after the removal of introduced predators. a very knowledgeable guide pointed out so many things that we would have probably missed. Next time we would opt to stay on Ulva for another hour exploring on our own and hail the water-taxi. The trip is a must for anyone visiting Stewart Island
