Ally A5.0Feb 2024It’s hard to describe just how incredible of a trip this was. We had perfect weather with views for miles. Our pilot was class. He gave us jaw dropping views and a memorable take off from the volcano itself. If you’re on the fence about this one, just go. You can thank me later.Raw Beauty of Mt. Tarawera and the surrounding Region
Ke L5.0Jan 2024The Mt Tarawera helicopter tour is truly breathtaking. We have a unique opportunity to witness the stunning volcanic crater, vibrant geothermal landscapes, and magnificent aerial views of the surrounding region. The tour provided us with an unforgettable experience. The highlight of this tour was that Mr. Ken Roureti was touring with us. Mr. Raureti is a local Maori leader. Not only did we get many profound stories from him, but we also learned how to respect the land.Up, up and away!
Tanja P5.0Nov 2023This was an amazing experience! What an incredible way to see Rotorua's lakes and landscapes from a new perspective. The staff were very nice and super knowledgeable. Highly recommend booking this tour!
