Hi Helen H, my apologies for the delay in reply, I just noticed your question. There are a couple of options for this situation: * split the family, so the parent not doing the dolphin tour can take care of your son while the other parent joins the tour; * hire a babysitter; * bring your son to the daycare. We rather not disclose further details on here, please send the Kaikoura i-SITE an email. We are happy to assist you. Best regards

Kia ora To Y, in addition to the excellent information of Peter F. I can advise that Kaikoura Shuttles has a 2 hour trip that includes a visit to Ohau Waterfall, the cost is $58 per person. Usually the baby seals are at the waterfall in winter time, however this year the breeding season started earlier, so there are no or not many pups there at the moment.
