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!

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
Explore Taupo: outdoors, water fun and cruises
Taupo’s most-booked experiences are water activities, cruises and outdoor sports, and demand on Klook swings noticeably through the year. Bookings peak in April while late winter in August sees the lowest demand, so the rhythm of the year alternates between busy shoulder-season months and much quieter late-winter weeks.
When to visit and how prices behave
Klook booking data shows demand peaks in April and bottoms out in August, with other months varying between those extremes. Prices generally rise into the autumn and spring peaks and fall through late year: November is typically the cheapest month on Klook, while May is often the priciest. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for November or the quiet late-winter trough in August; for peak-season atmosphere and the busiest activity options, plan for April and the surrounding months. In this market the demand peak in April comes with higher prices, while some quieter months offer both lower demand and more budget-friendly Klook fares.
Tips for travellers from the United States
Most travellers from the United States book Taupo experiences only a few days ahead — typical bookings land around three days before travel, with last-minute options often available one day out. If you’re flexible, you can book spontaneously and still find good options; if travelling in April’s peak, consider securing popular water or outdoor activities earlier (around two to three weeks ahead) to lock in your preferred dates. Use Klook to compare timing and availability so you can pick quieter, cheaper windows or the livelier peak-season experiences that suit your trip.
