Waitomo Viagens de um dia

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.

A very lovely experience on the whole! Loved both the Waitomo Caves tour and the Hobbiton Movie set tour. All the guides were very clear and professional in their explanation, with drops of humour. Rachel the bus driver and main guide was also very reassuring, responsible and clear in instructions. we saw many lovely free range sheeps and cows along the way. very valuable for money. the coach bus was also comfortable!

It was magical Hobbiton Movie Set and the Glow Worm Caves. Great day tour! Great lunch too. Kudos to our guide Richard even though his new, He tried his best to make it memorable for us. Highly Recommended tour with Cheeky Kiwi Tours.

This is a review from someone who has never watched The Lord of the Rings. Overall, the tour was efficient, enjoyable, and very smooth from start to finish. The bus stop near the Sky Tower was easy to find, and the staff kindly helped me when I asked. I had accidentally booked a one-way ticket, but they informed me in advance so I could change it to a round trip — something to keep in mind! Our driver, Todd, was funny, engaging, and very kind. At the Waitomo Caves, the guide explains everything as you walk through. The main highlight, the boat ride, is a no-photo area, but you can purchase a composite photo afterward. The Hobbiton tour lasts about two hours, with plenty of time to take photos without rushing. Even without knowing the movie, I still enjoyed the beautiful, storybook-like scenery. My husband, who is a fan, said it was the highlight of our New Zealand trip. It was a full and very satisfying day — definitely worth the price!

It was a great day. Hobbiton was whimsical and detailed with a delicious lunch, Waitomo caves were beautiful, and the drive from Waitomo back to Rotorua was an experience of itself with breathtaking views

The two main attractions, the Glowworm Caves and the Geothermal Valley, were both better than the Australian attractions I visited last year, offering higher quality and unique characteristics. The driver, Mike, was very proactive and had a deep understanding of the Maori people. In addition to driving, he also took on the roles of tour guide and leader, providing detailed accounts of Maori history along the way, which made the long journey of several hours far from boring. Although WiFi was provided on the bus, we only had the chance to ask the driver for the password during a short break after the bus stopped. It would have been better if the driver had proactively given everyone the password before departure.

Our tour guide, Adil, was very professional and friendly. He introduced us to New Zealand's history, animals, food, and some interesting stories. He also gave us very helpful advice when we arrived at attractions, which was truly wonderful! Hobbiton was my favorite part of the North Island tour. Even if you haven't seen the movies, you definitely won't regret coming here; it's just too beautiful.

Due to insufficient participants for the Kiwi House, the tour was changed to only visit the caves. The driver was very friendly and took great care of the elderly, also offering travel advice for those visiting other parts of New Zealand. This tour visits two caves. In the first cave, you take a small boat, and the number of glowworms is incredibly vast and spectacular. The guide's photography skills were excellent, capturing great photos even in the dark cave. The second cave has fewer glowworms and focuses mainly on viewing stalactites.

The journey is very exciting and a little bit challenging as we climb through the rocks to reach the glow-worms' habitats, and it's totally worth it! The guide is super funny and helpful as well!
