Having traveled to Picton, paid for parking, and sat down to lunch we received an email, half an hour before before departure, that the trip was canceled. When we spoke with Eco Tours’ representative in Picton, she emphasized that the terms of the trip were always subject to cancellation if they didn’t have enough people booked. She offered no compensation for our trouble other than a trip the following day—we had dedicated this day to the trip, and were booked up until we left NZ, so that wasn’t of any use. In addition, the attitude of the rep was uncaring, and not only defensive, but combative.
If you’re willing to take a gamble, go for it. I have visited the island—it is a wonderful destination.
