One of the smaller boat operators.
Our tip would be to go for the quieter 4.30pm cruise.

Okarito Kiwi Tours
4.0/5
Thoughtful and extremely well-organised hunt for the Kiwi birds.
Ian is very involving and the whole evening is good fun for the patient birdseekers.
David - thanks for the review. Always a shock for me to see a low score like 8/10 ( I think that's my lowest ever ).
Rankers is all about giving accurate reviews to enable future visitors to gain information relating to the experience. Good or Bad all reviews are very helpful.
From Memory, David's night included hearing a bird awakening in a burrow close by, seeing it emerge, then seeing the bird going back down the burrow and re-appearing again.
10 minutes later the same bird called with another male calling about 20 minutes later.

We did a day walk - it was fine but in general we would recommend avoiding the big tramps/walks - there are great day walks all over this country!

Deer Flat Campsite
4.5/5
Toilets only but fantastic location and scenery with individual camp/van sites = very private.
