Know before you go
- Although the Pohatu penguins form part of this tour, this is a nature tour focused on the rich history of the area, rather than the penguins
- The native wildlife and penguins can be seen in season
- No refunds for cancelation within 24 hours (unless the tour is canceled by the local partner)
- Most of the penguin rehabilitation occurs from mid-November to mid-February so to prevent crowding the penguins only those on the extended 4-hour tour will be able to view the rehabilitation
