Traveler reviews
Really enjoyed the trip, thank you â€ïž
I had an amazing day visiting Hobbiton and Te Puia! Everything was perfectly organized, and both places were absolutely beautiful and unforgettable. Our guide Trent was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip even more enjoyable. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! đ
Great Experience. Would 100% recommend
It was a great day from start to end. Our driver and guide Vicki was exceptional ! She kept us entertained all along the trip ( LoR movie on the way back was the perfect way to end this memorable day). She provided us with lots of information and made our experience so much more enjoyable. PS : Having watched only the first LoR movie, I was afraid that I wouldnât enjoy Hobbiton, but it ended up being the highlight of the day. The tour in Te Puia and seeing Kiwis and a Geyser for the first time was nice as well. A big Thank You to Vicki once again. The experience is 100% worth it and would definitely recommend.
Jeoff is the GOAT!
Jeoff was an awesome tour guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable!
A beautiful day of adventure!
It was a packed day that started early in the morning but our guide Jeoff brought kind positivity, was extremely organised and taught us more about New Zealandâs rich and varied culture along the way. Hobbiton was beautiful. Then we got lucky and spotted kiwi birds AND geysers at Te Puia. I would recommend this trip especially if you have limited time and want to see as much as possible in one day!
Brilliant day and John is a fantastic facilitator
John is a brilliant tour guide/driver. A lot of fun, informative, kept the group energy up from 5.45 till the drop-off. I had a thought to drop off at Rotorua for the MÄori show if there were tickets. He went out of his way to check a hotel room where they normally stay. He called the office to check if I could be picked up the next day. All was set but the evenin experience ticket I had seen was gone. But I appreciated the effort and desire to help me experience the MÄori evening. Def recommended and will do more with them.
