OK, let us talk about what exactly is a hosted cruise. Well, to put it in simple words, it is a cruise with a host (or a hostess). The host (or hosts in some cases) is responsible for you having a good time on the cruise. The host would be a designated person who will make sure that you are treated as an honoured house guest rather than a passenger on a ship. The atmosphere on these cruises tends to be more personal with typically smaller than average sized groups on board. The itinerary would usually have features such as private cocktail parties, get togethers, and meetings etc. Such cruises are a great way to get a relaxing vacation while still feeling right ‘at home’.
Got that! So where do I get a hosted cruise for roaming around the Marlborough sounds?
Now that you know what a hosted cruise is, let us see what you can expect on a hosted cruise in Marlborough Sounds. With the Marlborough Sounds Hosted Cruises you can look forward to having lots of fun with your hosts Wayne and Marilyn Te Amo. A couple that self confessedly fell in love with the sounds while visiting them as tourists have now made them their home. They shifted from Christchurch to Havelock in the Pelorus region of the sounds, bewitched by the area’s natural beauty. Today they are the proud owner of the M.V. Kiwi Finess, the vessel which would serve as your cruise liner. With a love of nature and a desire to help others appreciate the pristine beauty of their region the couple has embarked on this journey. Come join them and become a witness to one of the most beautiful landscapes nature ever imagined.
