Full Description

Ecotours in the Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand from Myths and Legends Eco-Tours. Birdwatching, wildlife and Maori culture whilst cruising on the classic launch, the Tutanekai.

We visit remote bays & inlets far from the usual tourist beat, using local knowledge we visit dolphins, seals, bird colonies a shipwreck, Island bird Sanctuary, Wildlife Sanctuary, Derelict Whaling Station, Captain Cooks Monument, & Guided Bush walks through native forests.

Our cruise is very educational, an opportunity for tourists to interact with Maori, learn about our culture, our history & learn about the Maori world view regarding the environment.

Our kaupapa is to keep the lost art of story telling alive, the old people say that stories stimulate dreams & if we lose the ability to dream our spirits will die. We connect with people at spirit level, one lady told us that our stories had left footprints on her heart!
