5.00Trent was an amazing guide and such a nice guy to talk to! Our group was really small so the experience felt like a group of friends on a road trip tbh :) Trent was also very considerate, making sure we were comfortable, asked if we needed breaks, and provided us with different snacks and water! :)

5.00Jeoff was our Guide and Driver. Extremely professional throughout, he made our trip totally stress free and great fun throughout. He created camaraderie between the group, created a WhatsApp group to give latest updates and to connect us and gave so many value add suggestions. One of the best experiences of our stay in New Zealand.
Had a magnificent day!...

5.00Had a magnificent day! Our driver Grant was friendly, gave interesting information about various locations on our drive, and had humorous stories to tell. Hobbiton was surreal and incredible. We were free to be as nerdy as we wanted and were encouraged by our tour guide. The geothermal location was a fascinating and scientific experience, but the smell of the sulfur and other fumes in the water made us wish to return to the Shire. Overall a wonderful day, highly recommend overall!
Great tour and guide

5.00Cam was a fantastic guide! Super friendly, informative and knowledgeable. We had a great time chatting and learning about New Zealand from him. Hobbiton and Waiotapu were amazing to see. Pickup and drop off were super easy and the whole day went very smoothly. :)

5.00curated adventurous journey but still gave me plenty of space to experience things the way i wanted. hurry slowly, yet everything in pace (hello from last minute guest). still can't move on from roadtrip sceneries across places i can't even pronounce, but surely will be back for more i'm still picky about foods, but each year my palate found a few new favorites. thanks hanoz for introducing me to this whole new culinary library, maori taste atlas thru his handy hints. never a boring convos with him, great music taste, absolute best! +love the extra stop to watch live stream, admire the doggy toilet facades and sunset scoops
Great way to spend a day!

5.00Amazing day!! Our driver and guide, Mike, was exceptional. He was everything you'd want in a guide- fun, entertaining, interesting, kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. He explained everything ahead of time very well, so we all knew what to expect and where to be and when. He shared great insights along the drive as well. Hobbiton was awesome and such a cool, immersive experience. Waiotapu was fascinating and fun to walk thru the park. Would highly recommend this tour.
