The Huka Falls boat ride, the friendly explanations from the guides, and the activity itself were truly thrilling and highly satisfying! If I were to rate just the tour itself, it was such an enjoyable experience that it easily deserves 5 stars.
However, there was a significant issue with the photo and video package we purchased additionally on-site. When we checked it at home, the video was of completely different people, not our group, and about half of the photos were mixed with pictures of strangers. It was very disconcerting to find someone else's data when we intended to preserve our precious memories.
Fortunately, before leaving for our trip, I revisited the site and spoke with a staff member who acknowledged the mistake and promised a full refund.
However, despite receiving confirmation last Thursday that a refund of 45.9 New Zealand Dollars ($45.9 NZD) would be processed, several days have passed, and the refund has not yet been completed, leaving a slightly unresolved feeling. (There might be a delay due to credit card processing, but the process seems a bit slow.)
I highly recommend the boat tour itself, but for those purchasing photos or videos on-site, I strongly advise checking immediately to ensure the files are correct. If the refund process is completed smoothly, it would be an absolutely perfect tour.

This tour exceeded my expectations - Alan was very knowledgeable, passionate and thoughtful, ensuring that we got the best shots and were well taken care of. Most importantly, he was a super careful and safe driver, which is so rare for such long drives. Thank you!

Great scenic cruise to see the iconic and unique rock carvings on Lake Taupo. Organised and knowledgeable skipper and crew. Very informative history lesson!

What better way to celebrate turning a year older (and none the wiser)!! I had the best skydiving partner in Nathan Purver who made a jump from 12000 ft high up in the air seem like a nice, leisurely stroll in the garden. My nerves, which would have otherwise been ballistic, were relaxed AF to say the least, all thanks to Nathan who was as cool as the wind up there! The entire team was extremely nice, warm and friendly who took us through the whole process like day 1 of being kindergarteners. Cannot recommend this place enough.

We had an amazing tour experience with Trent! From the moment we met him, he made us feel welcome with his warmth, hospitality, and genuine kindness. He was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire tour and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience.
What we appreciated most was how knowledgeable he was about the history of the places we visited. He shared fascinating stories and insights that helped us better understand and appreciate each location.
Thank you, Trent, for making our trip so memorable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly, professional, and engaging tour guide. We would gladly tour with him again! 😊

What to know before visiting Taupo
Taupo at a glance: activities and seasonal rhythm
Taupo’s top bookings on Klook show a strong tilt toward water activities, cruises and outdoor & sports experiences, so the destination suits travellers after lakeside adventures and active days outdoors. Demand rises and falls through the year, with a clear busy season in March and much quieter months in late winter.
When to visit: crowds, prices and the sweet spots
Klook booking data show March as the peak month for demand, while August is the quietest month. Prices move differently across the year: Klook’s typical prices hit their lowest in July and then climb toward a priciest point in June, so the cheapest months and the least busy months don’t perfectly overlap. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, consider July or August; if you prefer the peak-season atmosphere and busiest activity options, March delivers that energy.
Tips for travellers from the Philippines
Most travellers tend to book Taupo experiences a few days ahead rather than months in advance, with typical lead times around three days and last-minute bookings often possible within a day. If you’re travelling for a weekend escape from the Philippines, you can be flexible and book water activities or cruises shortly before arrival; for popular outdoor or specialised experiences, consider securing spots a few weeks earlier when you’re travelling in the busiest months.
