We truly loved our experience and Liz, our guide, was incredible. She customized our day to make sure we had everything we needed. She was extremely knowledgeable, teaching us about the history, ecosystem and culture. We couldn’t recommend this trip & service more…especially Liz!! She was so incredible…absolutely made our day so special!
Great introduction to the wonders of Waiheke!

Our guide, long-time island resident Liz, was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable about the island’s history, flora, and fauna. She was also flexible about pivoting plans when the weather wasn’t cooperating. Definitely recommend!
Great fun!

This was mine and my friend’s first time in NZ. We had Robyn as our guide and we had the most amazing time!! Robyn was so kind, friendly and knowledgeable about the island and NZ as a whole, as this is her home. The walk was beautiful. Robyn led us through our first walk through a lovely forest after which we had some delicious lunch picnic style at a local beach and headed out for another walk through vineyards. Definitely one of the best ways to see different spots on the island and just get out and explore the nature! Huge thanks again to Robyn who made the day very special for us!
Great walk to learn about area trees/plants

Maria picked us up on time. She was so knowledgeable about the trees, plants and birds in the area. She was personable and showed us around to some beautiful beaches, fine tuning the trip to show us what we wanted to see. I would highly recommend Terre and Tide.
A taste of heaven
