It was wounderful. The guide was very enthusiastic, knowledgeable. The village száll but very nice, it is amazing how warm the grund underground your fent. The corn what we received was so delicious. The haka performance was great and our son loved it very much. We had a wounderful day in the village despite the rainy morning and a sunny warm noon.

This tour was incredibly well organised and the small group size made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Hobbiton was absolutely magical — beautifully maintained and even better in person. Waitomo Glowworm Caves were breathtaking and unlike anything I’ve seen before. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared great insights throughout the day. Transport was comfortable and everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a memorable and stress-free experience!

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.

This is a tour service that picks you up from Auckland and tours Hobbiton and Wai-O-Tapu. The guides, Ark and Sam, are very kind and always approach you first to offer help. There were 14 passengers, and all the seats were full, but the seats were wide and comfortable, so there was no discomfort, and we were so friendly that we said goodbye to each other when we parted. We were the only Koreans, and there was only one other Asian person besides us, but even if you don't speak English very well, the guides Ark and Sam explained the important things several times so that you could understand them, and they told us about the scenery along the way and New Zealand travel tips, which was great. Thank you for leaving us with happy memories. ^^

We really enjoyed this experience. It was a great way to learn about Māori culture. It was quite interactive, and the song and dances were impressive. Dinner was also very good and plenty to eat!

Simon is very friendly and provided a great experience for our day trip in Rotorua. However, we felt the overall price was too high for just two activities, costing over $300 AUD.

Meeting at the Sky Tower before 6 AM. Arrived almost on time, but I had to keep confirming the meeting time with the guide because I couldn't understand the English very well. Wai-O-Tapu's geysers and bubbling mud pools are quite far apart, so I think it would be difficult to go there on your own. The green hot tub and champagne pool were a strange sight. I was able to walk around it in about an hour. The Polynesian Spa wasn't crowded and I was able to relax while enjoying the beautiful scenery, which was great. People from various countries such as Germany, India, America, and Japan participated.
