  • Amazing trip to Te Puia and Maori culture

    Gizem A,Nov 9, 2024

    5.0

    Rotorua was a beautiful place. Seeing the geyser was interesting, even though we weren't there on correct time to see it explode. We had a chance to Kiwi bird, which made our day! We attended to the Maori experience and watched their haka dances. Hangi lunch buffet was delicious. We also had a chance to go to Polynesia spa and it felt good. John was a very nice guide, he was funny, helpful, and friendly. He was good at arranging the group of people that had different choices. Also, they provided a couple of snacks and a water bottle for the trip.

    We had an amazing tour guide/driver and loved our trip to Rotorua and Te Puia. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. We felt safe and secure the entire trip. It was a very memorable experience that we will remember for life.

  • Great time but booking wrong tour

    3.0

    The driver and narrator was friendly and knowledgeable. Full marks. However the rating dropped because this tour does not include glow worms. The tour of the geysers, Māori dance and lunch was all top class. After lunch there was not much activity for me. I was expecting to see more as part of Rotorua highlights but saw the lake for a little time. My fault for booking the wrong tour though the right tour was shortlisted earlier. Please be careful to book the tour based on details as there are many similar looking tours costing quite similar amounts.

  • Amazing!

    John was excellent as a tour guide and driver, very detailed he answered all our questions he was clear in his communication and instructions, he played a big part in the success of this day tour What I didn't like I believe the tour was incredibly expensive for the services it offered I wish there was no pressure on the photos we have to take, the description of the tour should be clearer on what is included and what is not
