Overview

This overland tour by Gannet Safaris visits the Cape Kidnappers gannet colony on the North Island. The tour lasts about three hours and includes transportation in an air-conditioned minivan. Unlike other tours, this one drives directly onto the gannet plateau, so no walking is necessary. Visitors will get close to the gannets, observing their diving and swooping behavior from nearby. Along the way, the guide shares information about the Hawkes Bay region. Tea and coffee are provided during the tour. The route crosses the private Cape Kidnappers Station farm and wildlife sanctuary, stopping at several lookout points with 360-degree views of Hawkes Bay, including views down the cliffs to Clifton Beach. This tour is not available for cruise ship passengers, who must book a separate tour through the company’s website.
