Que faire à Taupo

Nous avons visité presque toutes les attractions autour de Rotorua, telles que le site géothermique de Wai-O-Tapu, les sources bleues, les chutes de Huka et le lac Taupo. Ce qui m'a le plus marqué, ce sont les sources bleues et les chutes de Huka, dont la qualité de l'eau et de l'air est exceptionnelle. J'ai beaucoup aimé ces deux sites.

We are a honeymoon couple who took your tour from March 16th to 17th. We departed promptly at 5:50 AM from the pickup location near our hotel. Our guide, Michael, was incredibly kind to us, despite our limited English. He was also an excellent driver and managed the entire itinerary perfectly. He is witty and knowledgeable about New Zealand and Maori history, providing excellent explanations. The itinerary itself was fantastic. We primarily visited Waitomo Caves, Hobbiton, Wai-O-Tapu, Huka Falls, and Hamilton Gardens. In addition, Michael introduced us to and allowed us to explore other worthwhile spots along the way, such as Lake Rotorua, Arapuni Suspension Bridge, and a viewpoint to see Huka Falls from above. We were very satisfied with this tour as it allowed us to visit all the places we had planned to see since we were in Korea. As a small suggestion regarding the itinerary, we spent about 20 minutes at Huka Falls, which is a spectacular sight, so it might be good to allocate more time there. (It's a good idea to be aware of the long travel times when booking.) We found out about our hotel on the day of arrival. We were assigned to Ibis, but they upgraded us to Novotel. The location was right next to Eat Street, so we could easily find dinner nearby. Michael recommended Polynesian Spa, which we visited after dinner. Luckily, we were able to book and use it on the spot, which helped us relieve our fatigue after a tiring trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone considering it, and we extend our sincere gratitude to Michael for making our Auckland trip so wonderful!

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.

C'était la meilleure idée pour terminer une journée à Taupo. Les guides et l'équipage du bateau étaient tous serviables, amicaux et très instructifs. J'ai apprécié la clarté des haut-parleurs du bateau, ce qui permettait d'entendre les commentaires ou le guide de n'importe où.

Une expérience absolument parfaite ! Idéal pour toute la famille pour une promenade en bateau et admirer le paysage 🌊 Le temps fin mars était magnifique ! Le ciel bleu et les nuages blancs rendaient les photos superbes ! Du café et du thé gratuits sont offerts à bord, et vous pouvez acheter des boissons alcoolisées 🍺🥂 L'excursion en bateau dure une heure et demie, vous pouvez voir les sculptures sur les murs de pierre, et l'équipage fait une démonstration de pêche à la truite (bien que notre groupe n'ait rien pêché). Il y a des plats à base de poisson à déguster, ainsi que des gaufres. L'ensemble du voyage était super relaxant et amusant. Nous avons vu de très beaux paysages. J'ai beaucoup aimé cette excursion, l'équipage était très sympathique et le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Il faut absolument l'essayer !

Quelle meilleure façon de fêter un an de plus (et pas plus sage) !! J'ai eu le meilleur partenaire de parachutisme en la personne de Nathan Purver, qui a fait qu'un saut de 12 000 pieds de haut a semblé être une agréable promenade tranquille dans le jardin. Mes nerfs, qui auraient autrement été à vif, étaient incroyablement détendus, tout cela grâce à Nathan qui était aussi calme que le vent là-haut ! Toute l'équipe était extrêmement gentille, chaleureuse et amicale, nous guidant à travers tout le processus comme si nous étions des enfants de maternelle le premier jour. Je ne saurais trop recommander cet endroit.
