Sun, sea and silver ferns.
From the friendly welcome onboard,this trip started as it intended to continue.Breathtaking scenery, good but not too much commentary about the area, and enough time allowed to enjoy a pleasant walk through the the bush. Lunch at the lodge recommended, delicious and such a peaceful spot. This is the sort of trip you could do and enjoy several times, but a must if you are in the area visiting NZ. A great value trip for a memorable day in some of NZs most scenic spots.

Fab trip !!
A fabulous day out on the Pelorus Sound ! A stunning boat trip, followed by a lovely walk around the coast to a great little lodge where we enjoyed a drink, before cruising back to Havelock on the boat. Ben and the crew were ace !! Highly recommended !!

Pelorus Mail Boat-Fabulous
Thoroughly enjoyed our cruise and bush walk. If we have more time we will go back to do a longer mail run. Great commentary, good boat, excellent all round.

Netter Ausflug, Post wird nicht verteilt
Bei schönem Wetter ein lohnenswerter Ausflug in den wunderschönen Kenepuru Sound mit einem 2-stündigen Aufenthalt. Optional kann man in der Raetihi Lodge Mittagessen (Wahnsinns Location aber teuer) oder einfach nur ein Glas Wein genießen. Tolle Ausblicke und atemberaubende Natur! Nicht vom Namen Mail Boat verwirren lassen, zumindest während unserer Fahrt wurde keine Post ausgeteilt. Empfehlenswert!
