Oh my goodness- the BEST money we have spent in a long while. Perry’s incredible knowledge and passion as he journeyed us through this protected environment and afforded us up close and personal views of wildlife not usually seen without a zoom lens. The interaction was facilitated in such a way that the wildlife had and felt no fear. Words cannot adequately describe the immense privilege of being on this very personal tour, the penguins sounded like they were purring!! the magical views, the never before seen or understood moments will be with us forever. If you are in Dunedin MAKE THIS A MUST SEE - you will walk away in awe ????????????????⛰????
We had the most amazing time the Argo tour with our guide,Perry, who owns Natures Wonders. His passion and enthusiasm about wildlife is unmatched. We were able to see the seals, albatross and penguins from up close and personal. Overall a wonderful experience and highly recommended the tour.
We have recently enjoyed a 3 week trip around the bottom of the South Island. While in Dunedin, we booked an Argo Wildlife Tour with Nature’s Wonders and this turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our holiday. We consider it a great privilege to have met the owner of this land and eco-tourism venture, Perry Reid, and to have experienced a personal tour with him on his family property. Perry has amazing knowledge, passion and enthusiasm. It was inspiring to learn how this family have been committed to developing the land and wildlife conservation on their property. We were thrilled to get truly up-close viewing of blue penguins and fur seals and to experience that this wildlife had no fear of us. We learned that this is due, in part, to a policy of no touching, tagging or feeding of the wildlife. The scenery and views from the property are stunning. The ride on the Argo was a new experience for us and was good fun. We definitely plan return to Nature’s Wonders in the future. Thank you, Perry, for a fabulous visit. We will have no hesitation in recommending this tour to others.
Ten out of five! I can’t believe they only got 4+ stars here. I had a great day today, I’m fairly hard to pleased person but this tour provides overwhelmingly beautiful landscape, we are lucky to see seals, penguins, rabbits without disturbing them, the Argo trip was great fun and exciting, staff are passionate with what they are doing, and the long bus trip from Dunedin to there was incredible as well. Best tour I had so far. Highly recommended.
A true conservation project that you get to live in for the duration of your exciting 8 wheel off-road vehicle tour. Perry, whose family have owned the land on which the tour is located for 200 years, was our tour guide. He is passionate, very knowledgeable and fun to have a yarn with. Because the land and beaches are all private, so you'll get to see up close blue eyed penguins, fur seals and various other local wildlife. We were quite lucky to be able to observe from mere metres days old fur seal pups and adults jostling for control. We went on a slightly rainy day with a 18 month old. Don't let a bit of rain discourage you, the tour is more than worth a towel dry later. Loved it
