From Scenic Māori Rock Carving Cruise - Chris Jolly Outdoors

Hello Shanelle, Sorry for your disappointment that no muffins were served. We only offer this service on our tours at 10.30 am and 1.00 pm. This is explicitly mentioned on the Bookme information page and you must have unfortunately overlooked this. We are glad that you enjoyed the boat tour itself. Thank you!

Great morning stroll around the lake on the boat and the highlight of the trip is nice day, sunny, optional of sitting indoor or semi outdoor, Maori craving is amazing, compliment hot beverages and served hot fresh muffin so yummy.
