Where Journey starts here

"One of the best ferry rides in the World…the surrounding Marlborough Sounds are jaw-droppingly stunning!”- Wine Spectator Magazine.
A early Tuesday morning wake up for a familiarization tour around the largest ferry in New Zealand waters with room for up to 1600 passengers. The “Kaitaki”ferry means “Challenger: in Maori.
