5.00The tour exceeded our expectations in every way. Warren was an outstanding guide. He greeted us promptly, provided keen insights and knowledge, made us laugh and got us to where we needed to be in a timely and safe manner. Hobbiton and Rotorua were excellent to see. We were very happy we took this tour. Warren and the team are great and highly recommended.
