Our commentary celebrates Island life, from earliest Maori to the sealers, whalers saw-millers and fishermen up to the present and what it's like to live here now and to bring up a family. We have photo albums aboard with a selection of old photos the help illustrate the commentary as well.

A popular time to enjoy the tour is in the evening, timed to coincide with sunset at Observation Rock. Here we stop to enjoy, if conditions are suitable, one of the sunsets that gave the Island the Maori name "Rakiura, Land of the Glowing Skies"

We have a small modern van, never more than 6 guests per tour so we can focus on what you want to know.

Our tours are leisurely, taking at least 2 hours and cover virtually every road on the Island (all 28 k) and includes transfers at start and end.

We are happy to assist disabled guests enjoy Stewart Island, including those restricted to wheelchairs.
