Penguins & Whales?

Thanks, Barb26. Got a question for you. Have you had an opportunity visiting penguin colonies on this trip? Heard there are penguins in New Zealand but also heard they live in very isolated areas. Just wondering if Tauck takes the tour to see them either on land or from water.

Also Sperm Whales. Not sure if the timing is right but the many times we get on boats on this tour, I am wondering if any of them give us opportunities to see whales.

National Geographics just released a show called Wild New Zealand. It is a show to watch prior to this trip. They also have few Wild Australia shows that are interesting.
