Totally great tour!! We went to not only scheduled spot like Waitomo cave, Te Puia and Rotorua but also suspension bridge, feeding a ostrich, and Tip Top ice cream. The driver Jeff guided New Zealand while driving. The tour schedule was not too tough. I thought the tour price is pretty expensive at first, but I definitely experienced valuable things.

I had a lovely tour with our tour guide Michael who was very engaged and friendly. He was knowledgeable about the culture and shared lots of interesting facts with us. The transfer to different sites was smooth and easy. The morning drive out to our first site was so beautiful as we were able to catch the sunrise. Out of the two places, my favourite was the glow worm caves - highly recommend!!! The limestone “cathedral” was a sight to remember and the glow worms were truly magical. No photos allowed until the end but was still able to catch some on camera. We learned a lot about Moari culture, how they live and respect the land. We were able to get some food on the way as well - a quick pie stop in the morning and also a cafe at Te Puia in the afternoon for a quick bite before the second tour started. Not too much traffic and we ended the tour on time, dropped off at the our different pick up spots. Overall, a great experience and grateful to Michael for the lovely chat the entire ride!

My tour guide and driver was amazing. Very organised and gave lots of interesting and relavant information including historical, geograpgic and cutural. He was clear about where we were going, what to expect and where and how to meet up again. He made sure we were comfortable, had snacks and water if needed and negotiated comfort abd other interesting stops too. The caves were amazing and the Rotorua visit was incredible. Both had well informed and excellent local guides. Rotorua was on my bucket list since a child and it didn't disappoint. There was lots of additional Maori cutural knowledge, history and customs shared as well. Thank you.

I really enjoyed my visit, especially our tour guide, Dave from Cheeky Travel. He made the tour so much fun and made sure to explain everything we were seeing along the way. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable. Rotorua is truly a must-visit destination—I absolutely loved my time here and can't wait to come back!

Pick-up was there at meet up point as scheduled. Waitomo Cave is really one of a kind with the glow worms and it's a very surreal experience! Also got to see an actual Kiwi Bird at Te Puia. Wasn't fortunate enough to see geyser activities much, though. Overall, worth it experience for the price and convenience.

The only downside of this tour is the early 5:45 am pickup, which can be tiring. However, you can sleep on the bus 💤, as the journey is quite long, allowing you to rest. The destination includes three attractions. The first one, where you must see the fireflies, is worth visiting. The second attraction is the indigenous people's handicraft school, where you can also see New Zealand's Kiwi bird. The third attraction is the sulfur eruption, which is also worth seeing and can give you skin that looks 20 years younger! 👍🏾 Overall, it's quite comfortable, with transportation provided throughout, as well as coffee shop stops for rest, snacks, and restroom breaks! The vehicle itself can accommodate 11 people, so it's comfortable if the group is small. The tour guide and driver are the same person (GRANT). He clearly guides you to the attractions, specifying departure and meeting times! He explains what's fun about the attractions. Additionally, he provides information on the bus, pointing out and describing the local scenery. 👍🏾 I think this Klook tour is great; the small group size is perfect! It's also very punctual!

This one-day tour group drove a similar van to pick us up in front of the hotel. There were about ten people in the vehicle including the driver and tourists. The whole journey was very long, and the driver would take breaks at designated points to let us use the restroom. The first attraction was the Glowworm Cave. The tour guide took us to explain the stalactites while walking, and then slowly walked into the depths of the cave to take a boat. The starry blue light of fireflies is very unique and beautiful. Afterwards, we went to Te Puia Maori Cultural Village for a Maori cultural tour by their staff. We were lucky enough to see kiwi birds and see the erupting geothermal geysers up close. For tourists who don't have a self-driving car, taking this day trip is a good choice, which can easily go to sightseeing spots outside Auckland.

Hanoz was our guide. He made the 8 in the group introduced ourselves. I enjoyed the caves mostly. My son loves the geysers. Anyway, I love that they were generous with their bottled drinking water and snacks. Their transport allows you to charge your phones. The ostrich feeding experience was fun.
