Kia ora Ivan & Christina, Last month (Wednesday, 14th May) our Kapiti Island guides and lodge whanau took a tour on your Glass Bottom boat as a part of a family/team building venture. I am sending this email to say thank you very much for the interesting and informative guided tour Ivan gave us… he was great and your tour is fantastic. We will certainly recommend it to our visitors at Kapiti Island.

Hi Ivan and Christina. I had the pleasure of enjoying a trip on your boat on Monday. Can’t deny I’m envious of you! As an active supporter of conservation I’m very pleased to recognise and endorse the strong themes and emphases of the contents of your trip. There’s so much we all can learn from the ongoing work at the reserve and I was very impressed by your presentation – I’m confident visitors to Goat Island will have a much enhanced experience and understanding as a result of your work. Indeed I was left so inspired that I made a short film of my visit! You can see it here.

Kind regards, John

Hello, we came up and did the boat ride this afternoon. We all enjoyed it… great value for money and Ivan has so much knowledge of the area. He is a wonderful host. We will recommend this trip to friends and family visiting the region.

Hi Christina and Ivan, I just wanted to say how impressed we have all been of your wonderful service and communication.  The trip today was a great success and the tour in your Glass Bottom Boat a highlight. Your pricing for a school trip was also much appreciated and made the trip possible for our children. Thanks again, we will all be passing on excellent comments and recommendations to others about your service. Have a wonderful Christmas, many thanks.

Thank you for that Christina. We really enjoyed our day. The Glass Bottom Boat revealed a hidden world. A great experience.

Hi Folks, I wanted to drop you guys an email to say a big THANK YOU! We had a fantastic trip out on the Glass Bottom Boat. We had friends up from Christchurch and we all absolutely enjoyed the trip. The weather conditions were such that we could only do the 30 minute trip nevertheless it was still a great outing. The skipper and 'first mate' made the trip very informative and relaxing.
We have no hesitation in recommending the Glass Bottom boat to anyone!
Thanks again for a great trip. Best Regards.
