Traveler reviews
Good experience with Vicki / cheeky kiwi tours.
Most impressed with tour guide and driver Vicki. Very accomodating and friendly person. We enjoyed her excellent service.
Waitomo glowworms to Rototua
The glowworm caves were spectacular! Cheeky Kiwi's transit was quick, clean, and comfortable. Our driver/guide, Grant, was outgoing and knowledgeable, and made the trip from Auckland to Rototua an extra pleasant experience. He kept is all on track without making the journey feel rushed out short of time. 5 stars for the experience and our driver.
Everything perfect!
Very good service both from SeeAndDo when responding quickly to an issue I had when booking the tour, and from the tour guide. The tour is worth it, the caves are beautiful!! The communication and coordination with the guide was perfect, adding to the enjoyment of the experience. As well as the attention provided during the trip and the vehicle in impeccable condition.

Best tour ever
Trent was an amazing, kind, lively guide and brought excellent information about New Zealand and the Maori people! The walk is well worth it! In a single day it was possible to see glowing warms, kiwi birds and geysers, as well as learn about the ancestral techniques of trimming in wood, bones and stones! Simply unforgettable! I recommend traveling with Trent and Cheeky Kiwi!
