Stewart Island reviews

"Rough ride over, smooth as glass going back "

The ride over was extremely rough. A number of people, including me, got sick. The crew were great. Right there with more bags and a cold damp cloth. The ride back 48 hours later was great. My husband enjoyed chatting with the captain.
