    A good tour with tour guide Jude under difficult circumstances (altered route due to conflict with triathlon being on the same day). Her passion for her local region and also asking some passengers to stop talking so the other passengers can hear the relevant commentary was greatly appreciated.

  • Save your money - not worth it

    The 5 minute stop at the lookout area. The vast majority of the time was spent driving through industrial and residential areas with nothing interesting to see

  • Nice introduction to the area

    5.0

    Good overview type of tour of the area on a tour bus. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. Only downside was wi-fi on bus didn't work, which I could have cared less about, but so many gripes and interruptions from others didn't make for a smooth tour (to start off).

  • A great orientation of Tauranga

    I selected your 2-Hour City Sightseeing Tour - Tauranga City & Scenic Lookout as fit in perfectly with what we wanted to do and it did not disappoint. This was probably one of the most informative and well planned out tours you could fit in two hours. The tour guide was very pleasant, informative and knowledgeable about the area and answered all questions, and also took photos of the guest when asked. Her presentation was well received by all and was above and beyond our expectation for a two-hour tour. (Robert and Gloria)
