The tour was well organized, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. It was fascinating to learn about the history and behind-the-scenes details of the set. The scenery was stunning, and there were plenty of opportunities to take memorable photos. The comfortable luxury van made the journey relaxing and pleasant, allowing us to sit back and take in the beautiful scenery along the way.

I've visited almost all the attractions around Rotorua, such as Waiotapu Thermal Wonderland, Blue Spring, Huka Falls, and Lake Taupo. What left the deepest impression were Blue Spring and Huka Falls, with their incredibly pristine water and air quality. I really loved these two spots.

A very interesting and informative tour. The guide is native living in that area. She was very knowledgeable and her commentary was very clear.

Our Hobbiton, Waitomo Caves, and Flexi Tours experience was absolutely amazing! Hobbiton truly felt like stepping into Middle-earth, with stunning scenery and incredible attention to detail. The glowworms in the Waitomo Caves were breathtaking, and our guide, Cuppa Tea, was informative, entertaining, and even treated us to a beautiful song. Bunty from Flexi Tours made our journey even more enjoyable with his friendly personality, fascinating insights about New Zealand, and a bonus stop at a beautiful hanging bridge. Our group of four felt safe, well looked after, and had an unforgettable trip. Highly recommend these experiences to anyone visiting New Zealand! 🇦🇺

It was really amazing to see the geyser, thermal park and understand the Maori culture. The burger lunch is delicious too.

As a Chinese traveler, I want to wholeheartedly recommend the amazing Cheeky Kiwi team to all visitors exploring New Zealand! Though English isn't my native language and I initially felt nervous about joining their English-speaking day tours, my experience completely surpassed expectations. I participated in two unforgettable trips: Queenstown to Christchurch and Auckland to Te Puia. While I couldn’t understand every word of the guides' commentary (totally my language barrier!), their passionate storytelling helped me grasp fascinating insights into Māori culture, Merino sheep history, New Zealand's discovery&unique geological formations. All four Cheeky Kiwi staffs who assisted me were incredibly kind—their warm smiles instantly made me feel welcome!

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.
