Auckland Excursii de o zi

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.

Excellent trip! Kenny was an absolute gem of a driver, complementing the two paid experiences with facts about New Zealand. The lunch provided exceeded my expectations in presentation and quality—10/10! Just flagging that the cave experience is memorable but not photographable, so manage your expectations with that experience. Overall, I’d recommend this tour!

A fost magică vizita la platoul de filmare Hobbiton și la Peșterile cu Viermi Luminoși. Un tur de o zi minunat! Prânz excelent, de asemenea. Felicitări ghidului nostru Richard, chiar dacă este nou, a făcut tot posibilul să ne facă experiența memorabilă. Recomand cu căldură acest tur cu Cheeky Kiwi Tours.

A fost o zi minunată. Hobbiton a fost capricios și detaliat, cu un prânz delicios, peșterile Waitomo au fost frumoase, iar drumul de la Waitomo înapoi la Rotorua a fost o experiență în sine, cu priveliști uluitoare.

Really enjoyed the experience. Smooth van transfers to and from the Hobbiton site from Auckland and the vehicle is really comfortable. The tour guide on the hobbiton tour is really knowledgeable that you get to experience the full movie yourself. The movie set is unbelievably amazing and looks just like the movie.

Great way to explore the City of Auckland. It will take you to various destinations that is not easily reachable by public transportation. Bonus is if you make some friends on the bus!

Our tour guide, Adil, was very professional and friendly. He shared New Zealand's history, animals, food, and some interesting stories. He also gave us very helpful advice at each attraction, 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 absolutely beautiful.

Both of the main attractions, the Glowworm Caves and the Geothermal Valley, were better than some of the Australian attractions I visited last year, and were of a higher quality and more distinctive. The driver, Mike, was very proactive and had an in-depth knowledge of the Maori people. In addition to driving, he also led the work of the tour guide and team leader, and gave a detailed account of Maori history along the way, which made the long journey of several hours less boring. Although there was WiFi available on the bus, I only had the opportunity to ask the driver for the password after getting on the bus and stopping for a short break. It would be better if the driver could proactively tell everyone the password before departure.

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!
