★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is one of the best tours you can book!
They are very well organized and eco-friendly (they ask you to bring your own bottle of water, so there's less plastic waste that ends up in our oceans!) :)
Our boat (Peejay 4) was very comfortable, super clean and nice.
The crew was amazing and really helpful all the time!
On our way to the White Island, we saw a pod of dozens of common dolphins and they were jumping everywhere...one of the best moments of the day!
The walking tour of the volcano is a unique experience! The guides are knowledgeable and pay a lot of attention to your safety.
The lake in the crater is simply amazing and if you love photography, here you can get really stunning shots!
The lunch is vegetarian, simple and really delicious.
The weather was so good that we managed to sail all around the White Island so we could see it from every single angle!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ White Island Tours is the only company who has permits to land with a boat on the island, and they do an amazing job!
The boat ride is ~1 hour there and back and you’re on the island for about 1.5 hours. Plan for about 5 hours total for the full tour.
We went during 5-10 knot winds and for those who get sea sick, it was very comfortable and manageable.
They have a brand new custom boat that makes it super easy to land on the island and the staff are AMAZING!
Cannot recommend White Island tours enough!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great tour all around.
Check-in and boarding were a smooth process.
Staff on the boat and the tour where great. Keeping people busy during the trip while sharing their knowledge about everything on the way to white island.
The island it self was an amazing experience with knowledgeable guides.
Only issue for people that are not good with mornings, the start time is quite early at 7.30 boarding time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Epic trip! Writing this as I'm on our way back from the island, the staff are amazing! We had a long walk around the island and staff were very knowledgeable, I was sick on the way there, however staff brought me a wet towel, bag and water immediately, the boat was spotless! Even saw some whales on the way back! Definitely worth all the money, ? would do again, highly recommend as it's the best thing I have done on my trip!
Lance, Kelsy, Hayden and Jess where amazing staff who are enthusiastic about what they do, and really make the trip that extra bit enjoyable!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice tour, great guides, viewing the seals was a definite highlight. Nice clear water for swimming. Would be nice to be able to see more of the island but it is a conservation sanctuary so access is restricted

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely tour around Moutohora Island which included seal encounters, bush walk, and swim on the beach. Tour guides were very knowledgable and lots of attention was paid to safety. Was a nice and chill tour and hot summer day well spent

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great experience. All the staff were very friendly and the guide was really helpful. He made sure the pace during the walk around the island was just right as it was both a really hot day and we had a disabled lady with our group. Great opportunity for pictures of both the views and wildlife. Highly recommended.
