We decided on a private tour for our cruise excursion because no ship or small group tour had all the activities we wanted to do. Patrick certainly made this a memorable day! We unexpectedly learned so much about kiwis and how to grow and harvest them. The redwood tree walk was so fun, I felt like a kid! And it was so interesting to learn about Maori culture and crafts at Te Puia and see the amazing geyser. Couldn't have fit anything else in on this ~eight hour tour. Such a memorable day! Thanks Patrick!

Had a wonderful time! Waited to see geyser go off. Last 10 minutes. Redwood canopy walk was beautiful and peaceful. Driver was professional and car roomy and clean. Patient when we were shopping but kept us moving to get back to ship on time. Was given drive tour thru Rotorua which was bonus. Only concern was pick up. Is at the exit at the ship port not down street at address shown so easier pick up. Really had a good time.
