celebrity dolphin swim

Does anyone know if Celebrity uses Black Cat Cruises for their dolphin swim excursion in Akaroa? I would prefer to book directly through Black Cat but because Akaroa is a tendered port, I am worried we might not get off early enough to catch the first dolphin swim. On the other hand, I like that Black Cat only takes 12 at a time and was unsure what Celebrity did. Thank you for any information.:)

I know Princess does. We booked direct with Black cat and it was half the price of the ship excursion. When we booked online with them we had to wait till the afternoon because the ship commandeered the morning trips. It was brilliant and will do it again when we do the new years cruise. Dec 2014.
