Traveler reviews
Day trip to Roturua.
An absolutely fabulous day even with the extremely early start. The tour guide/driver was very knowledgeable of the areas we drove through and the places we were visiting in Roturua. We were very pleased with the choice we made.
Great day trip to Rotorua
Absolutely wonderful experience. Our driver Jeff was very knowledgeable on New Zealand history and kept us entertained with fun facts. Visited the living Māori village Te Puia and was delighted to see kiwi birds. Would highly recommend.
Wai-O-Tapu and Te Puia.
We had an absolutely wonderful day at Wai-O-Tapu and Te Puia and Grant our driver and guide for the day was an absolutely great guide so knowledgeable about the surrounding areas on our long drive to and from our hotel. Yes, it was an early start but in saying that the long drive, lunch and entrances into both attractions was well worth the money. On our tour there were only 5 passengers, so the experience seemed more intimate than having a full bus full of passengers. On our way back another tour bus had broken down at Te Puia so Grant helped our by taking their passengers back to Auckland. Thank you, Grant, for a wonderful day we hope to come back to Auckland again in the future.
Absolutely worthy.
Love the full Wai-O-Tapu experience. Interestingly tasty lunch. Relaxing hot tub with drinks in those surroundings. Sweet closure stopping for a local ice-cream taste and few snacks on the finally way back and safe drop off. Fair admission fee, length of visits and crowd size. Outstanding staff! Full of knowledge and charismatic! The best!
A fantastic day trip in...
A fantastic day trip in and out of Rotorua, professionally done and with an experienced and entertaining guide. Our guide did well to get is all ready in the morning and give us good little breaks on the drive without losing time. Our group had multiple choices on the afternoon portion and the agenda was made fairly and with knowledgable consideration. Overall i would absolutely recommend the experience!
