    Great experience. Simon was our driver and he is highly recommended. Friendly, patient and knowledgeable. All the pit stops for food were delicious. My wife and two kids have zero complaints. The weather was also awesome. The tour guides at both the Hobbiton and the Waitomo Caves were knowledgeable, friendly, and fun.

  • Worth the trip and the Experience!
