The team we met was genuinely warm and friendly, which made us feel welcome from the start. However, we felt that the tour itself didn’t quite live up to the NZD $93 per person price—it was rather basic and lacked the depth or uniqueness we were hoping for. That said, watching the dogs expertly herd the sheep was truly impressive and definitely the highlight of our visit. We were also lucky enough to catch a fleeting rainbow on that rainy day, which added a touch of magic to the experience. Without those moments, our overall impression might have been less favorable.
